need help on end game, heads up tournament play

[JJNJustin]

I play online sitngoes and multitable tournaments, and do fairly well. I usually get close to the money or in the money. However, most of the time my cashes are towards the bottom end, i.e. the bubble, and not at the top. I feel this is mostly due to my horrible heads up and short handed nolimit tourney strategy. I feel like I am just getting raised out of too many blinds and feel too gutless to take a stand with something like K7s or J8s. Any basic simple advice would be helpful, as there may be some simple principles I am not aware of.

thanks

I think you know what your problem is. Play very aggressively. You need to raise, call raises, and reraise with hands that are marginal at a full table. Don't be afraid to reraise allin. Don't be afraid to bluff at the flop. If either player has less than 10xBB, push preflop most hands.

1)Read betgo post.
2)Play more agressive than betgo.

here's your problem pal. you're looking for a hand like K8 to "defend" with. what you should be doing is looking for a similar hand and RAISING with. Let them choose to "defend" or not.
