Just a little something im looking into is to start doing HU cash. I think im more likley to feel comfortable doing this rather than playing 6 handed with my recent run of form.

Anyways does anyone know if i will still rack up poker points for doing this??

    pretty sure you dont as i is to easy to con, for example you and a friend could play £5/£10 HU and just take eah others blinds time and agin, if u did this for 8 hours a day you would make a decent living from it!!!!!!

    Yes you do still get poker points for playing HU.  Jesusdog22 you have to see a flop for it to be classed as a raked hand, so you have to pay rake to get points.
    Don i tried playing HU a while back and its a very swingy high rake paying game.  Variance is much higher in HU than 6 max.

    Yea i agree, in all honesty the only real reason is i have confidence in my ability to beat most of the opponents it my level of play. Once i go up the levels ill avoid HU till i get used to opponents again.

    If i get it wrong then i tried, if it works, then its another step in the right direction of improving my all round game aswell as gaining valuble buy-ins to play 6-max.

    surely the rake you pay at low limit hu is more than you can get from cfp?

    not sure i won £3 before in about 7 hands or something against an opponent and then re-checked Poker Points and it stood 30 points more. I paid about 30p in rake.
