Heads Up

What about Heads Up SnGs?? They're my favourite beacause it's a kind of psychological battle between the two players and it is crucial to know when and how to bluff, cause you can't only rely on cards! What do you think?

Hi, i don't like the headsup SNGs its to much pushing and shoving for me, i like to play full ring games more at a table with good players that stay a long time at the table, on those games you learn how the play and to read players like in livegames.
You can learn a lot off those games and gives me the possibillities to make notes on every player i play against, what will be very usefull in all other games i play against them later.
Today i played a finale table against 7 players i had notes on, it made it possible for me to exploit their weaknesses and win the tournament.
On SNGs headsup its to much playing one your own hand and pushing on the right times and some luck for me to enyoy it.

Well I think that learning how to read your opponent is as crucial in Heads up as it is in 10 players SNGs.
I often start Heads Up SNGs by losing some pots because I just need to know how my opponent behaves and then I try to comeback; this also gives him the illusion that he can easily beat me and when he starts to lose his advantage, he becomes nervous and easier to defeat.

HU play is all about agression. Play more agresive more you will win. We all know you dont connect with the flop most of the times. So who picks up most of the smaller pots with his agression wins at the end. But if blinds get really high then the match turns into pure luck game.

I never played a heads up sng. Only time i was ever heads up with anyone was when i was on the final table . Otherwise i stay away from the heads up sng's played a 10man sng , that was alot of fun.

Normally, I dont like playing heads up because it seems as though its just luck..Anyone and beat anyone in heads up poker. Just like the heads up championship on NBC is a joke.

Heads-up might be a joke to you but to some it is a way to become a better poker player! If you can start winning some of your heads-up battles maybe you would understand this! And not to mention the money differential between 1st and 2nd place! So do some more research before you make a mindless post like that!

i play sng but i like the 10 or 9 play ones, i need help with my heads up game, ill go all in with my ace queen and get beat with 10,3 guess i got alot to learn that is why im here thanks bonnie

Nothing wrong with All-in AQ HU, but why not wait to see a flop and trap?
