Heads Up!

Hey guys im Chris from london and have been playing poker for around 10 months now. I started off a losing player and blew my bank roll of about $150, I then joined Pokerstrategy.comwhere I signed up and got the $50 sign up bonus and learned how to play 9 man sngs, from these + playing 6 max cash I've built my roll up to over $1000. From loooking at peoples sharkscopes heads up sngs seems like the only variation where people seem to make alot of money on a constant basis, so this is the game I plan to focus my attention on. I started playing from the 2$ heads up sngs now im in between the 10$ and 20$ husngs.

 This graph shows my overall progress with heads up sngs from the $2-$20 buy in level. alot of the dips have been caused by me going on bad runs at the $20 level. I think the skill level at the 20s is similar to the 10s but I think i play worse at the $20 knowing that I am playing with twice as much money.
Below is my heads up graph up to $11


im currently destroying them with an 18% roi, if only the same could be said about the 20$+
This has been my bad run at the $20+ games, I think i have been putting the pussy of playing higer stakes on a pedestal too much, then end up not bringing my a game, then when I lose more than 3 matches in a row I start playing ultra bad. When I play the $10 games I can lose like 4 games in a row and still remain calm and collected ready to play another game, it is this demeanor I need to bring to the $20 games.



This graph shows my overall progress on pokerstars, one of the sites I play on.

Right now I am crushing the $11 turbos and feeling really confident with my game, I will make the transition into the $20 games, this time instead of just playing a whole load of $20 games in a row, I will just play a few $11 then when I feel like i'm playing well, mix in a few $23s, then some $11s and so on, that way I can get more used to playing higher stakes and play them when I am playing my A game
