HeadsUp Sit and Go's

thewools

After the Changer over with Paddypower and Co - my income now has halted! This is beacuse all i played were Headups games via the old network Paddypower was previously using (Triceba?), anyways i mainly played Speed, Turbo games and from my stats I was winning over 68% of these - hence a tidy profit along the way - i would built my bankroll of €50 up to €500 in little over a week and continue to build at a steady rate and withdrew numerous 1000s from my account

The Turbo / Speed games were my main focus games whereby the Turbo Games were 1 minute blinds and Speed 3minute (i think) - HOWEVER the new software has the Turbo games at 4 minute blinds, and 7min blinds for standard...This doesnt suit me simple as that and my frustration tends to kick in after 20mins of playing headups play.. so i stopped playing since the change over, but lately have been itching to get back into my rythem..:D

So basically i need to know what (IF ANY ) other sites use the old type Turbo / Speed games that were on the previous software used by Paddy Power... I have looked around, Betfair, Stars, Boyles and few others but to no avail so any HELP please

Cheers...

1 min longer levels has affected your win rate?
and the ipoker network has 1 min turbo levels. super turbo, not as common, and i dont play heads up so wouldn't know if its available at those levels

ok, i checked
ipoker has heads up STTs at 7, 4, or 1 min blind levels
hardly much dfferent that the old way.

Yes i mainly played the Super Turbo 1min blinds option however they only go up to 10$ now on i-poker, whereas $25 was generally my minimum and anything up to $200 or more my max

super turbo up to $10, theres probably a reason for that
and turbo up to $200.
I personall think that turbo has much more of a luck element to it. you rely on getting good cards more as you cant really wait for hands. I only ever played turbo speed at heads up, but even at that i still prefered regular or speed

His results seem to differ! OP, how many games is the 68% over?

I agree totally, but i stuck to a rigid method of play...and as stated won a considerable percentage these games..i found that most players that play the 1mins/mmin blinds were super loose and have a tedency to bluff more.. it worked 4 me so just hoping i can continue somewhere else..

I only started recording my results from start of Feb - these went on until near the changover, cant access them now but documented most, was averaging approx over 100games per week - only an hour or so a day, more at weekends...

Games with 1 min blinds are about 80% luck imo. I know you have done well in this but I would put it down to good varience thats all, it would not take long to blow your whole bankroll playing these type of games. You would be far better multitabling heads up games with lower limits and slower blinds I think

And even if you have perfected them so that you are working at 70% ITM.
And you are sure this is down to your play and not good varience. Fair enough. But a spell of bad varience will blow your load for you.
