A quick example of a 3-bet range (highlighted in yellow): It’s important to maintain a bit of an aggressive image for your villain. Your 3-bet range should be between 10-15% up to 20%. In heads-up you either 3-bet for value or as a bluff. If you don’t 3-bet, you’ll get runned over by your villain and will lose a lot of money. We are here to learn and hopefully get to those stakes eventually!ģ-betting is essential in heads-up. So they often raise with hands they rather not want to play the flop with, and call, or as they call it, ‘slowplay’, when they do have an actual good hand. Heads-up poker can get very personal, and you want to out-level your villain as much as possible. You might think to yourself, how can he always be dealt such good hands? Well, obviously, he isn’t. We’ve all probably watched some spicy heads-up action on those high stakes where it seems that two opponents are 3-betting each other all the time.
