HOW TO start with HU PLO?

So I'm beginner HU PLO player and wondering - what is most effective way to learn HU? Since there is so much information out there and ways I can apply it, given this it can be a little overwhelming. Any ideas to throw at me?

Been playing alot of 6m? If not then i recommend that u start with that.
And the best way to learn HU is to play it alot really

Regarding preflop ranges, does anyone has any suggestions for basic VPIPs vs different raise sizes?

For example BB 3bet and VPIP vs 2x raise, 2.5x raise, 3x raise?

What are the most common sizings as a PFR? What might be a reasonable PFR % for a 2.5x preflop raise?

Thanks!

Are you talking about hu? Equities run super close in plo, so doing something like min raising from the button just allows the bb to continue with almost everything. At mid to high on Stars, you don't really see anyone opening to less than pot these days(except from the button some).

I'm not a HU expert but I think the best players defend 90%+ vs a 3x open, so presumably they're defending near 100 vs smaller opens.

DirtyD, hu plo preflop seems to be more debatable atm than say hu nl preflop atm. Guys like cumicon seem to defend like 95% vs a 3x, where as a few end bosses seem to be folding 10-15%.

Hotchick, I'd say start by looking at preflop equities. They run super close in plo, so you're gonna have to play a lot of hands preflop. And I'd suggest starting with hu sngs or on some site with good rake back. The hu 50 and 100 zoom pools on Pokerstars will be extremely hard to beat given how high the rake is.
