    Default My first game of heads up!

    Hi, today I played my first game of $20 heads up nl holdem on cake. Short game of 26 hands. This was pretty early in the match. A few minutes after this I stacked him then proceeded to hit and run him.

    He seemed to be pretty passive on the turns and rivers. I was confused on the flop, and it looks like I got trapped pretty hard . I have no idea on the fundamentals of heads up and cake doesnt let people use HUDS soooooooo there you go

    Cake - $0.20 NL (2 max) - Holdem - 2 players
    Hand converted by PokerTracker 3:
    Hero (BB): $25.50
    SB: $19.60

    SB posts SB $0.10, Hero posts BB $0.20

    Pre Flop: ($0.30) Hero has 8d Kd

    SB raises to $0.60, Hero raises to $1.80, SB raises to $3.60, Hero calls $1.80

    Flop: ($7.20, 2 players) 5d 4h 8c
    Hero checks, SB checks

    Turn: ($7.20, 2 players) 3s
    Hero bets $4.80, SB raises to $10.40, Hero calls $5.60

    River: ($28.00, 2 players) 9c
    Hero checks, SB raises to $5.60 and is all-in, Hero calls $5.60

    Hero shows 8d Kd (One Pair, Eights) (PreFlop 31%, Flop 25%, Turn 11%)
    SB shows Qd Qs (One Pair, Queens) (PreFlop 69%, Flop 75%, Turn 89%)
    SB wins $38.70

    Meh, I don't play a great deal of HU, and this guy has been banned so what's the point of posting? BUT.... just fucking fold pre to the 4bet, jeez, we're out of position with king high. Button I like this hand much more. There's my 2cents, probably not even worth that much!
