3:11pm: Well, after having played 28 $100 hu sngs, I am happy to report the following observations:

  • If there’s a huge difference in skill level between the $100 husng players and the $50 husng players, I haven’t seen it yet.
  • People in the $100s take longer to make decisions, and generally fold more than the players in the $50s do - which will open the door for me to be a little more aggressive.
  • I don’t feel at all uncomfortable with the stakes, and I feel totally relaxed when playing - which is huge in playing winning heads up poker.
  • My guess is that a lot of these people I’m playing are at the end of their bankroll, and are just trying to double up or pack it in, and is causing them to play a lot more cautiously than I thought the $100 players might.
  • I am 19-9 so far, with a 29% ROI so far (see graph below). This is definitely not going to hold long term, nor do I expect it to, but it’s a lot better than starting out with trouble.

I am off to play a live 2-5 NL session. Good luck to everyone grinding tonight.

I will also announce the date of the release of the next (sixth) video tutorial when I return from my session tonight, so stay tuned if you’re interested in that.
