Hey guys it's been a week i can't win more than two heads up in a row... my statistic is going deeply down and the bad thing is i don't know what i'm doing to loose so much since with the same technique i built a big bankrool in every site i used to play... I've been always gotten rivered when i have poket premium pair, they make a straight when i have 2 pairs they make a better two pairs or a trip .... i'm starting think i'm to aggressive what what should i do? should i play tight ? how do you play heads up with profit?

Would help if you post some hands/tracks of your gameplay, in case you wanna really some tips/help. If you dont run good on headsup, which isnt very unusuall, because its mostly swingy, as there are only two players playing, you could make a break playing headsup and just try shorthanded tables. Post your bankroll and the limit you use to play.

thats the problem with heads up,at end of day its a 50/50 game.you can have best hand on the flop,dead on the turn.killed on the river.or the other way around.being overly aggressive isnt so good cauz the other player can just let you do or the betting then reraise the river,you in too deep by then,you call ,smashed.

HU is more of playing the player. So dont use the same "technique" all the time. It makes it easy for your opponents to read you. Switch gears from time to time. And accept the swings that come with this format. Looks like you are on a downswing too.

headsup, you're going to get your ups and downs. You have to plan for that.
I remember Daniel Negreanu saying something like this. Doesn't matter if you win or lose, it just matters that you made the right decisions. And if you do, it will pay off in the log run.
