... and counting! I just figured that out! requested tournament history from PS and saw that Ihave won 11 in row and after that won another one. I hope I will manage to win few more. This will be probably my hottest run on HU so far... I have feeling that I will lose right after posting this but it doesnt matter What is your biggest streak?

------------ Min raise
Im always min raising. Part of my strategy You must know that he reraised to 200 my 3 previous min raises so I was expecting him to do that again and then to ship it...
Well, my strategy is to play small ball at beggining. Avoiding all ins without monster hand and trying to fool my opponent as much as I can. I acctually play very different styles and which I will play depends on my opponent. If he is aggromaniac I am trying to see cheap flops in position with solid holdings or to finish all ins with monsters. Call him down with great hand on flop and forcing him out with just good... With passive players I like to pretend to be bluffing nonstop so he would eventually call my big value bets with junk. With stations I tend to see every single flop and to hit big hand. Then I value bet strong all streets and he paying me off with his Ahigh.
Off course in late stages I shove wide and raising strong every single button and reraising all ins with decent hands.
Now every opponent have exclusive insight in my game Silly me

Posted by LoGiX: You mean always min raising against that opponent or always min raising in general ? I personnaly hate min betters/raisers so much
In HU SNG play early stages always min raising pre flop ofc. And there is reason why you hate that. Thats what I want. My opponents to start reraising wide and be anoyed. If you want I will explain to you why min raising pre flop is better then 3xing.

Nice one, i remember my best HU streak at PS was 20. Long time ago when buyin was 1.20. I also made a good streak with SNG going from 1.20 to 300 in 2 weeks, then i lost 10 games in a row and cashed out

Hehe yeah I get the point, I have thought about how to play against this for quite a long time. Even if I hate it, I must say it's a very solid strategy.
