heads up tourneys on stars
typical newbie questions for HU SnGs. a lot of what I have found in the archives for this forum pertains to play once it gets down to heads up, not HU SnGs.
1) I know this is covered in the faq, but should my ROI and std. dev be higher,lower or same for HU tourneys? 2) I seem to not do as well in these as I would like. would anyone like to take a look at a tourney transcript and offer advice? in return I would be happy to analyze NL/PL ring game HHs up to 5/10. 3) how many of you play these regularly or specialize in them? I imagine they can be very profitable. --turnipmonster

Re: heads up tourneys on stars
A generalization
larger fields: higher ROI, lower ITM, larger st. dev, longer time smaller fields : lower ROI, higher ITM, smaller st. dev, shorter time What this does not do is account for the fact that while your ROI may be lower in HU play, the time for each tournament is smaller so the hourly rate may be similar or higher. This is a broad generalization, but comparing ROI for HU play and 10 man SNG's is like comparing apples and oranges. For Example winning 70% of 10+.5 HU matches gives an ROI of 33%, a great HU ROI at this level, but 33% ROI at $10+1 SNG' is weak IMO. MrX

Re: heads up tourneys on stars
I wish Stars had the 5 minute "Turbo" blinds for heads-up like on the SNGs. They take too long for me. I always lose patience in them, you know what that means... [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Email them and ask. It seems like it might be a popular format, and they certainly won't mind taking the rake quicker. Lori
