I don't play HU usually, and I'd never consider it below like 100nl because of the asinine rake, but I was trying to be a good sport and start up a table

look good ?

do we just pot the river?

you run into aces full, 10's full? line looks good imo i mean its heads up we have to put him on a busted flush and top 2 a decent amount of the time i mean its .01-.02 villain could still have a lot here, HU i don't ever see myself folding this river, ever, and i think we miss a ton of value by checking the river imo

I took it down (he had a straight)...just wanted to post a hand where I ended up winning

i like pot bets more than 2/3 pot or whatever bets.
they're calling either, might as well extract the max.

once we fill up we dont really need to bet pot if he wont call it but might call 1/2 pot or something.

also, its hard to start up a table when you bust the other guy sittin with you

lol

about bet-sizing...mine as a whole is a leak. In PLO <PSBs don't seem to get much respect, and in this game I weirdly find myself in spots where it's like, Why am I betting...to not get value, to not bluff, to just take it down. So many small-medium strength hands where I find myself betting for "protection" and to win pots, stuff I almost never do in NLHE where I'm concerned almost totally with maximizing value or minimizing loss against an opponent's range.

it's just a hard game, one where running well yields tremendous profit but also presents so many strange and unusual circumstances
