so for the past 2 days ive been playing some hu plo. idk why i got the urge to play but i did. im not very good, but its a lot of fun and luckily i havent played anyone very good so i have been doing ok. i think once i get down the hand strengths in hu a little better i should find some more success. i do have a strict stop loss in place. 2 per session and 3 on the day. also i can only play one table, which is partly to manage the swings and bc i will learn the most this way. i have found a good amount of hu vids i can watch too so hopefully that will help as well. ive played several sessions but im just going to post results from the beginning of the month until now bc i dont feel like filtering through all the sessions and no one session has really stood out that much anyway.
hands 919
46/35/2.85
pf 2.4
f 4.8
t 3
r 2.2

the rake kind of sucks, but i still think i can probably make more hu plo than 6 max as long as i stay focused.
this hand is very marginal. in my first prob 500 hands i did a ton of min raising, which i still like but havent been doing as much recently. but this opponent ran me over before i realized how infrequently he actually had a hand. still, i was fortunate to get this in good.

i was happy getting this one in, but he had one of the worst hands i could be up against.

looking through the hands i really havent come across many super interesting spots. im sure this will change since there are so many close decisions in hu plo.
