Submit your questions for heads-up expert Will Tipton and win his new book

Have you tried playing HU against PokerSnowie, and if you have, what did you think about its strategy?

Do you think it is possible to build up a BR starting from microstakes (NL10)? Most people say that playing NL HU under NL50 is just plain stupid, due to insanely high rake in HU games?

How would you construct your cbetting strategy in position on a ~dry lowish board with something like bottom/mid pair 100bb eff vs a reasonable player @ nl hu table. For example on a 952r board, how would you play your 2x/5x type of hands - would you cbet all 5x/2x , would you cbet some of them , none of them or just the 2x or just the 5x or specific 5x/specific 2x etc when checked to?

What do you thing about 4 player heads up games?

With all the good stuff someone can have for free from forums, youtube videos ect, is still a book one of the best choice to learn a poker strategy nowday?

Hey chief

I struggle with high cbet %

nowadays it's standard to raise >80% to 2X/2.5X which leads to super wide calling ranges. And it's just really hard to rep a hand on e.g. dry flops with check raises etc.
Add to that our weakened range as we 3bet top X% hands where he has 100% strong hand combos in PFR and we are oop, without initiative with range disadvantage on most boards.

What are the main points you'd suggest for a ring player that ventures into HU to start combating this? Is having leading ranges on flop or turn an answer?

what, in your opinion, is the best way to deal with maniacs/overly aggro villains in HU?
range for calling 3bets PF?
range for 4beting PF?
how to deal with frequent aggression on the board?

Hi. Lets asume you play hu cash against your self 100bb deep. You cold call 3bet. How much equity you will realize on avarage? Will specific hand realize more eqiuty? And what your ranges look like in this situation. Thanks.

A player who you perceive to be a probable fish joins your NL600 HU table. (stack size,name, you've never seen him before)

How would you go about gathering information about him. And what conclusions would you be able to make about him in the first 10-15 hands of play. Obviously a very broad question, but could you give some examples please?

Thanks!

How easy is it to accurately gauge if you have an edge on someone HU? For whales its obviously super easy, but for regs is it often hard to know who is actually better?

Hi Will,

What do you feel would be the best strategy for dealing with a really aggro player HU in cash, who is 3 betting a high % of the time, not folding to 4 bets and calling really light pre?

Just another quick question

What do you think of limping a wide range in HU hyper Sit and Go's, 500 starting chips, blinds 10/20, with 2 minute blind levels, as a strategy?

Hi Will,

Let me first of all thank you for the initiative and congratulate you on editing your second book. I loved the first one and looking forward to reading your new work of art

Here's my question: What is your general approach to playing 4bet pots both IP and OOP with good Ace and King highs against opponents with aggressive tendencies? Which boards are you more likely to continue on unimproved with such holdings assuming that the opponent is capable of barreling off aggressively?

Best Regards,
S

Hello,

What would you recommend for a NL200 6max player planning to make a transition to HU games in terms of bankroll, stakes and poker sites?

Seems like HU sessions can be quite time consuming as there is a lot of waiting, so could you also share your advice on improving endurance and focus during long sessions?

Thank you!

Hey,

I'm assuming you have played live poker at point or another and I'm also assuming some hot shot challenged you to a hu4rollz, what was your answer?

Or perhaps if that hasn't happened, what would your answer be if you were to get challenged to a hu4rollz?

Hi Will!

How close do you think short stack HU games (25bb hypers) are to being solved given that regs >$200 buy in level hardly beat rake anymore against eachother? And will we see you demonstrating your knowledge against top regs again soon or will you not play untill poker is regulated in US again?

Thanks for answers, good luck!
