Heads up in a mtt
 

Well i havent won a mtt for 3 yrs now ( plenty of cashes but no cigar) , but yesterday finished 2nd and just finished 2nd in one today , which leaves me thinking i need to be able to play heads up better ....anyone recommend any good books on this subject ?

Wh-hey Dobie ..nice result ..:clap::clap:o:D

Strange as it may seem but I also got the 2nd place last night ..
Mine was in that new 'PokerMob' League on the 'Grosvenor poker' site

Thanks mate , and nice one on ure result ...but ..how the fook do i actually win one ? ....o:D

My way heads up is ... keep pressure on, min raise BB pre- flop ..
Or all-in any pair , or , any Ace ..
It really depends on the chip stack of you and your 'oppo' ..But in the main you have to the aggressor , chipping away at the 'oppo' ..
If they are the small stack, only call their all-in bets with at least two picture card, or medium high pairs, or possible A 9 upwards ...
The best I can say is use your 'sixth scense' and what your gut feeling is in that moment :news:

Was beginning to doubt my heads up play till this small victory B (:

just as well im slightly better at poker than i am at working out windows 8 screenshots :h?:3:-)

Nice win Dobie ...:clap::clap:


Could be the start of a good run ....:news:

Well done Dobie .. o:D :clap:

To be honest the HU is the easy part ..
Your obviously playing well because the hard part is getting into the money ..
The first couple of hours is the 'make or break' time in tournies..
