Both players ITM, payouts sorry can't remember as going through my database of hands, this one from August! Likely 3 paid. worst case it would be 2 paid, very small fields! Often less than 9 players.

WWYD on Turn?

Pre and Flop feel ok, but welcome analysis of those spots too if could be played better :) TIA.

Payout structure is irrelevant in HU. It's fairly likely we have still best hand on turn so value bet is fine. When he raises it's bit more questionable but point is that 4 doesn't change board that much.

He could have 94, 64, 54 or 73 depending how wide he defends. 73 or 94 tend to be weighted toward suited combos. There is also chance villain has some weaker top pair or some sort 7sxs type of semibluff.

So while I don't love turn spot I would continue as default. Call or shove pretty close to each other with stack depth in play. Bit deeper call is clearly better. MäWith reads fold is fine also.

It's good to know if you have any info of the villain, but most of the time I would go broke with top pair top kicker on the turn against a unknown.

He seems decent. Not sure this is only HU stats, but if that's the case his PFR is low and he 3bets a lot.

I am pretty sure HM2 has brought up stats based on players left on table as HU.

What areas do u think I can work on for my HU?

TIA :)
