After reading about DN's online heads up battles, I've started playing heads up online. I typically play either 5/10 or 10/20 limit. I'm having a blast playing, however always wind up about even. Will finish a session up and give it back next time.

Is the nature of online heads up, so fast and so much action, one that is, to a certain extent, unbeatable?

I am a consistantly winning cash game poker player in the casino's at 3-500 NL, but this one's got me. Let me know you guys thoughts.

Thanks

HU limit is a very variance game. I probably wouldn't trust the results I got from it until I had put in at least 50-60k hands.

HU limit is definitely beatable though.

If you are giving back your profits you may be loosening up or trying to bluff too often.

In a few k hands at lower limits (the lower end of your range) you should start to see some profits. What is your HU strategy?

I am playing very aggressively in position pre-flop. Betting my good draws. I generally find that I can exploit opponents who, for reasons unknown to me, don't put in good value bets.

Basic strategy is such: VERY AGGRESSIVE, when I develop my table image as a very aggressive (a bit crazy in my opponents mind) type player I find that I am in control of the game. When I miss my hand I will lose 1, maybe 2 bets post flop, and when I hit I will win 3-4 bets because people call me with mid pair to nothing.

Definately still early on in my HU expirience, I've played about 1200 hands of 5/10 at a $350 dollar profit and am loving the game. Any help or insights from you guys would be much appreciated.
