Becoming a heads up cash player from scratch
**** it here goes. I have decided to transition from whatever i am doing to playing primarily heads up no limit, texas holdem cash games.
I have been drawn towards HU cash basicly since i started playing poker, and now i have decided its time to do something about it.
There is a limited amount of games available at microstakes, as far as i know right now, i should probably go about making a list, but its something like this:
10NL at partypoker
10NL at a national fenced site
^these both have 10, 25 and 50nl
$3.3, $5.5 and $11 TPKO MTT's on pokerstars.
Pokerstars also has 50NL and 50NL capped at 20BB
I think this is going to be somewhat okay for volume, atleast here at first, because im going to have to study alot and i definitely think that i should spend the majority of my time doing that and not playing.
I hope along the way that i can suck some knowledge out of people here on the site, i have been playing tournaments for about 5 years or so and have been doing reasonably well in the micros and up to the $11 buy in range. But i havent actually studied cash games, ever, except for looking at some charts back when i started, so theres definitely going to be plenty of room to improve.
I have been playing a fair chunk of the $5.5 TPKO on stars and have done quite well in those actually. But i have also fired a couple of bullets here and there in the 10NL cash games on the other sites and im just getting absolutely crushed actually.
Today i had $30 sitting on one of them and decided to play a bit and its pretty clear to me that i dont actually have any idea what im doing, they are murdering me.
So thats great, im going to go ahead and get myself a GTOwizard subscription and here at first just kind of, look around i guess.
Im going to have to make myself some kind of a study routine, i hope someone might be able to tell me what a smart person would have done, or perhaps a nudge in the right direction.
Either way, drills in wizard seems like an obvious option, im not entirely sure with the rangebuilder, atleast for preflop that seems kind of redundant.
anyway if people have a good way for me to start studying i will be all ears
to be continued
