Default Heads Up SNGs hourly earning better than full?

So a couple of nights ago I played a friend of mine in some heads up SNGs on Stars for the hell of it and beat him pretty badly. He is a semi-decent player, but was not a good heads up player. I feel like I had a very large edge over him. Anyway, this got me to thinking about the profitability of heads up SNGs as compared to full SNGs. It seems like it is possible to have a much larger edge in heads up matches and they also tend to finish a lot more quickly. Has anyone ever experimented with this? I imagine that the edge you could get at the 20-50 level could be pretty significant becuase many low level players are very bad heads up players.

Sorry, it's all I can think now looking at your avatar (like theredpills apparently).

FWIW, I think Lori is possibly serious. Or I don't get the joke. I'm not sure too many people know. Although, not too long ago Giga seemed to be on the path to try his hand at uber high buyin Stars HU tournies I believe (or maybe some other site, I forget).

i never really had an intention to multitable HU. i just figured it would be something to fvck around with get some HU practice. i'm mainly interested in it from a theoretical rather than moneymaking standpoint.

You'll be surprised how small your edge is.

You won't win 70% of games, and you might not win 60%.

chillex and think about why Lorinda's post is being quoted. Heads up is supposed to be nealry pure reads vs grinding it out, so you would have hard time multitabling HU matches leading to lower EV in comparison to multitabling normal SNG's.
