    I was wondering if anyone could chime in on what percentage you need to have in HU sngo's to be profitable in the long run.
    I have been playing small stakes ones (mostly 30 bucks) on Ub and have acheived the following results in the past two days.

    <TABLE cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width=577 border=0 x:str><COLGROUP> <COL width=112> <COL span=4 width=64> <COL width=81> <COL span=2 width=64> <TBODY><TR height=17><TD width=112 height=17>2 day results</TD><TD width=64>Buyins</TD><TD width=64>rake</TD><TD width=64>revenue</TD><TD width=81>profit</TD><TD width=64>ROI</TD><TD width=64>% win</TD></TR><TR height=17><TD height=17>Omaha 8/b HU</TD><TD align=right x:num>390</TD><TD align=right x:num>19.5</TD><TD align=right x:num>600</TD><TD align=right x:num>190.5</TD><TD align=right x:num>46.5</TD><TD class=xl25 align=right x:num="0.77">77%</TD></TR><TR height=17><TD height=17>NL Cash .5/1.00</TD><TD align=right x:num>225</TD><TD align=right x:num>358</TD><TD align=right x:num>133</TD><TD align=right x:num>59.1</TD></TR><TR height=17><TD height=17>NL Tourneys</TD><TD align=right x:num>85</TD><TD align=right x:num>6.5</TD><TD align=right x:num>0</TD><TD align=right x:num>-91.5</TD><TD align=right x:num>-100.7</TD></TR><TR height=17><TD height=17>NL sandg HU</TD><TD align=right x:num>560</TD><TD align=right x:num>28</TD><TD align=right x:num>820</TD><TD align=right x:num>260</TD><TD align=right x:num>46.4</TD><TD class=xl25 align=right x:num="0.74">74%</TD></TR><TR height=17><TD class=xl24 height=17>Net</TD><TD class=xl24 align=right x:num>1260</TD><TD class=xl24 align=right x:num>54</TD><TD class=xl24 align=right x:num>1778</TD><TD class=xl24 align=right x:num>464</TD><TD class=xl24 align=right x:num>36.8</TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>

    You have to win 52.5% to break even with the rake included.

    Never lose more than 2 games in a row to one opponent.

    Always try to re-match after a win.

    Heads up poker is a game of momentum.

    Control it and you will win.

    good advice ship, i find that if someone loses two in a row, they feel they have to win, and they either play too cautious or they steam (either way not playing good poker).
