Yesterday was brutal. Long HU session against an 80/4 who played surprisingly solid post flop. I'm not joking apart from obviously leaking preflop he had a plan... he actually adjusted and he did it faster than most regs.
Playing some more HU with some reg who's idea of how to play heads-up is to ship any two suited, any pair, any broadway, any Ax pre, and he raped me as well.
If I could make the rules, I would make poker 1.25x potlimit pre - meaning you can bet up to 1.25x the pot pre, and no limit post flop. That's the reason I hate 6m below 200 buy-ins. and HU against bad-ish regs. There's way too much shipping pre when you're flipping against ranges and too little play post-flop. But pot limit isn't optimal preflop because it amplifies the positional advantage, and that's already pretty ridiculous in HE. Come to think of it we should just switch to antes but keep the rotating btn. Or make the blind size strictly academic compared to the antes.
It will happen. Mark my words!
