No HUD Allowed

I never use HUD because I am a recreational player. In my opinion that HUDY should be banned or available for free to everyone to make the game fair.

Its certainly possible to beat soft micro stakes games without using a HUD, and there are some wild imaginations among non HUD-users about, how often people actually use their HUD in real time. But that being said, even if HUD-data only influence my decisions in relatively few hands, I certainly think, it is an advantage to have a HUD running.

For instance in the weekend in one of the tournaments, I was playing, I had 88 in the big blind seat with around a 13 BB stack. Small blind limped into the pot, I raised it up to 3 BB, and now he limp-reraised and put me all in. My HUD showed, that over 130 hands, he had only raised preflop 1% of the time, and he had never 3-bet. This made, what would otherwise have been at least a close decision, an extremely easy fold

that hand you mention is very easy to read for anyone that is focused in the game.

I disagree. You cant just assume, that everyone only limp-reraise the nuts, because "this is what people do". Some players will have a balanced strategy, where they also do it will bluffs, and others are fish and limp-reraise with whatever, because they are mad at you for raising them. However if someone is essentially never taking aggressive action preflop, and he suddenly limp-reraise, then it become reasonable to assume, he very likely have the nuts.

Sure if you have played 2 hours with someone, you might have noticed, he never raise preflop. But in this case he had just recently been moved to my table. The majority of those 130 hands were from a previous tournament, and there is no way you can remember, how everyone has played before. The player pool online is just way to big for that to be a realistic possibility. Anyways if you dont want to use a HUD, this is of course your choise
