This video opens up straight into Step 8: Heads Up play.

Grub Smith and Carmel Thomas talk about the differences in Heads Up to full ring (6+ players), where the saying that any two cards can win is more true than usual. Joe Hachem even won a WSOP main event with 73 offsuit.

We witness a heads up battle between Noah Boeken and Gus Hansen, where Noah plays his TJ badly against Gus Hansen’s T3 but sucks out on the river after going all in behind.

Discussing the most important part of heads up, Grub talks about aggression which is the main decider in a heads up game.

Paul Sandells (now writing for Poker Channel Europe) makes an aggressive bluff and against just one other player steals the pot.
