this is for no limit, as i haven't played heads up limit on the gaming club yet

on ultimatebet.com, in heads up play, the button is the small blind, acts first preflop and second on the flop. on the gaming club, the button is the big blind, and acts last on all rounds of betting, including preflop.

can anyone reccomend any strategy changes for this?

On the gaming club, the big blind has a larger advantage, being last in all rounds, so the small blind should play much tighter than in the other blind structure.

Heads up you should expect to lose out of position (assuming players close in strength), so you try to minimize your losses out of position . If you have to act last both pre and post flop, your disandvantage is even greater, so you should be more cautious to get involved.
