Yeah, you probably couldn't fold the river. Your flop and turn bets were so tiny, though . . .

Yeah I guess it was bad betting and then got into where I couldnt fold the river. But still amazing to see it go that way. still one of those rewards for bad calls VS reward for best hand played badly I guess hehe. Thank you for your input, and btw the low bets was for one If I think I am ahead I should be betting lower to keep them in the hand and two was looking for a way out if he pushed enough to make me think he had something. Just happened that by th river I was in it enough I couldn't fold it. I felt bleed by the J was shocked that it actualy was the 4 out 10

PS off topic but here goes another AA owned.

What's with the wildly varying buy-ins in the last few HHs you've shown? Your bankroll management seems way off.

your preflop was was good. would of repoped him the pot size on the flop around 225 you looked timid there. HU is about aggressive , theres no slowplay , and you must bet your hands with full agressivness while using position.. sometimes its good to slowplay and trap your oppenant , mix it up... you made a hughe bet on the river , and i know you had to of thought your aces might of not been good if he called all the way!!

mix it up

Tha's exactly how come I normaly do so well in HU if you view my actual HU thread it shows alot of variant hands and agressive / timid moves.

I like to make them think im timid and force them to get agressive then change up and get agressive on them while they are in agressive mode because I get them to push bigger bets at my timid image then when I strike back with a big bet they fold and I got trash nothing but bottom pair or a draw Twisted Evil

Mixing it up is a huge tool I use especialy on cash games. I show almost all of my hands too just for the fact I mix my game and style of play up so much that they never know if they should call or not Cool And usualy when they do luckily for me it is one of the times they should not be calling. HEHE Twisted Evil

I have always been that way before I went on hiatus I played HU games from 1.00 - 100.00 SNG's from 1.00 to 100.00 Specials from 1.00 to 69.00 Cash tables from .5/.10 9 man to 2./4. 9 man Last night I made a big booboo though I was playing drunk because I had been on such a good roll winning a few 30.00 HU etc and accidentaly tossed alot away to suckouts like above hand Embarassed

Got to remember not to play larger stakes when drunk I guess Rolling Eyes cause then I try to recoup after a bad out like that instead of dropping back to lower stakes and cash ring playing a steady game.

My HU strategy used to be play a medium level for me like 20 or 30 if I win the first one go up to a 50. If I win that play 30.00 10.00 5.00 and then stop Or stop on the first loss. If I lose the 50.00 I go to cash rings and play until 2x -3x buy in to recoup the HU loss.

That used to work pretty good for me. Being fresh back on the scene I'll have to remember to be a little better about not playing tipsy or drunk though Embarassed That's when I forget not to go up higher levels or play the same high levels I just lost on trying to regain a loss. Laughing

Thank you again for the input guys.

PS here is a hand from my other thread that I was refering to as in making them get agressive after seeming timid myself and then taking them out. I acted timid early on then got him into pushing at me alot trying to steal pots etc and I fold to em letting him have junk pots then got a few hands where I bet weak looking timid and getting him to raise big then Id push all in and hed fold and I got stacked over him then this final hand Cool
