I don't really see the edge. HUSNGs the blinds do get bigger so I understand at least people wont start clicking buttons for fun and hoping to bink.

I don't know, maybe FL HU cash isn't a good game after all

you should try a few HUSNGFL and see how it is. If you are a somewhat competent player you have an edge against 90% of the playerpool.

FL HU is an awesome game. I think especially since the americans left us the conditions for HU in general has been horrible sadly.

just tried one husng. don't see the edge at all.

as long as your opponent keep floping pairs you are doomed. no matter what. u can't make him fold like ever, and theres no other way to get chips.

this guy literally outflopped me 80% of the time, before blinds got big i was already short.

Just felt helpless, never even felt this helpless in other forms of poker. ( well unless they are also big stations in NL and PL games)

well maybe FL holdem isn't for me, I just don't see the edge when you are constantly giving your opponents right odds to call because you are forced to. Pretty stupid imo. At least in 5cd or badugi or triple draw the equities are way more defined.

Or maybe there is something complex which I fail to see

go look at my blog and see my latest graph. There is tons of edge you can have. And just have a look at TPirahna's blog and his graphs. even the high stakes games are beatable.

Been trying out the new FL HU zoom recently, why do I feel like FL is all about run good? seems like people nv fold and whoever hits more gets the best of it all the time.

been losing a ton just because ppl call with junk and hit while i don't?

Hello! You keep telling yourself this myth about "running bad" and how "they hit and you don't". As your mindset develops and you reach a better understanding of the variance, you will treat it as a normal and vital part of the game and won't get upset about it anymore. You will see that everything is perfectly fair and exactly how it has to be. My advice to you would be: improve your mindset and reach for enlightenment. Did you know that you can actually choose how you see the world, and thus create your own reality? ;) There are tons of materials about this, I am sure you will find your own perfect and fun way. Cheers! =)

not that hippy crap again create your own reality , nahh what you should is take a good look at reality and the world as it is. its fair , there is darkness and light both neccessary. same applies to variance there is a dark side where you run bad and they always hit and there is a light where you run good and you win those pots by rivering everything and stuff. Reality is much more of an enlightment than a reality you have created yourself. Your only fooling yourself doing that.

and thats why i spend up to 4 hours a week in a row talking with my lovely love child taavi on skype to try and see that light how to see the good sides of the world. And him reversed i teach him about the darkness of this world

Luv you taavi <3

Thank you! :heart:

Hi Daniel! All of our argues (as any other argues) still operate on the dualistic level such as, good vs bad, I and the others etc. Once your mind is open enough and you can grasp it beyond the polarity, you will see the next level. When the duality is transcended, a whole new type of joy starts to flow through your heart ;) :f_biggrin: :f_biggrin: :heart:

O man, take care!
What does the deep midnight declare?
"I was asleep --
From a deep dream I woke and swear:
The world is deep,
Deeper than day had been aware.
Deep is its woe;
Joy – deeper yet than agony:
Woe implores: Go!
But all joy wants eternity --
Wants deep, wants deep eternity."

-from Nietzsche's Zarathustra obviously, also:

"All eternal joy longs for failures. For all joy wants itself, hence it also wants agony. O happiness, O pain! Oh, break, heart! You higher men, do learn this, joy wants eternity. Joy wants the eternity of all things, wants deep, wants deep eternity."

Yes, there is a battle of good and bad, joy and suffering. This is called duality, here you think in terms of good and bad, like and dislike, hot and cold (you see, they're all always relative!). Most people get stuck here. At the same time there's always a bigger joy present, which says YES!!!! to both suffering and joy. Some call it God, haha, Nietzsche obviously didn't want to do that after declaring him dead at the beginning of the book . So he uses words like joy and eternity.

Anyways, the key is to go beyond good and evil, to transcend the duality thinking. Then you're free from suffering, just like Buddha after his night under the tree. (Nietzsche took it like a pro and went mad afterwards :f_thumbsup: :f_love: )

Sorry bro, just felt like educating your little silly annoying ass a little bit (sorry again, can't go much more evil than this! ).

Well I will figure out something, probably create a blog. Don't know yet, but as I won't be carrying an internet device with me, I have a feeling that the updates will be quite random
