heads up strategy

[JollyWhite]

I think, it's more important to build your game based on your opponent. Some of them are so predictable, that you can play 10 hands 7-2 of 10, but there are also some regular good players that you had to fold such hands as AKs.

That is all out the window, and play figures how the flow of cards are going, it would not be wise to say play a certain percent of hands as most know that Poker is played by figuring put your opponents play pattern. Some keep track and if one plays that way becomes easy target for loss hands.

No doubt the agressor in heads up usually has the advantage. I usually like to raise every button and even come over the top of my opponent when he/she raises the button. When I feel I can outplay my opponent I rarely like to get it all in pre flop I like to see flops and out play them.

yeah heads up can be very hard to play..u have to watch ur raises preflop..becarefull i was playing against this guy once who raised 4 to 6 times the blinds just to take them.. i waited for a few hands were i felt i was ahead knew the raise was coming and 3 betted his raise.. u have to find weakneses on ur oponents and try to pick them off gl.

the best way to play heads up is to read your oppenent and stay aggressive if he is a passive player and vise versa

For heads up, my strategy is generally to play button as strong as possible. I will 3 bet virtually any hand when in position. The good thing is he will fold some hands, earning free blinds. Second of all, the hands he calls, you can continuation bet on the flop if he checks, because you have position. And if he raises, well depending on your hand, you can call it, fold it, but sometimes have a great ahnd and reraise.. Also if you think he is bluffing you because you reaise too much, you can reraise bluff.

Just my way of playing. When first to act, i genrally play the connected cards and high cards, and am more likely to limp in.
