    Default adapting to no cap?

    There is no betting cap on Everest when HU
    How does our strategy change in this setting?
    Any advice?

    don't stop betting when you have the nuts?
    The Dunning–Kruger effect is a cognitive bias in which unskilled individuals suffer from illusory superiority, mistakenly rating their ability much higher than average. This bias is attributed to a metacognitive inability of the unskilled to recognize their mistakes

    yeah, i was thinking more in terms of 4bet flop/turn semibluffs

    Don't 5-bet pre-flop against thinking players.

    turn semi-bluffing is very rarely, if ever more than one bet on the turn.

    So the lack of the cap won't be reflected until you're in a pissing match. At that point, I hate to say "if you don't have the nuts it's spew" But the more bets, the more likely it's spew if there's a hand out there that beats you.

    For god's sake don't get into a raising war with top 2 on the river.

    Wouldn't you then also be able to read a tigher player's 5-bet as AA/KK?
