Micro Heads Up SNG Grinder

This is going to be my first blog entry. I decided to make this Blog about me playing HU SNG’s so I would stick to them and give them a chance instead of moving to something else in the first sign of dissapointment or idk for some other excuse that I seem use.

I am the kind of person who jumps from one thing to the other quickly and never sticks to anything. Poker is actually the only thing that for some reason has kept me playing for over 2 years. Maybe its because I can’t seem to beat it no matter what I do or what I learn so the challenge keeps me motivated to keep learning and improving.

In the past year I have played everything from NLHE 6M where it seemed that I won 1 or two buy ins just to have it all taken away on a cooler, to LHE FR where I was slowly leeking money, to stud which was a game that I feel I have a good feel for and was beating, so I decided to try Stud8 which I did fairly good at. After watching from A donk to a Stud I started playing HORSE, starting first at the .5-.10 tables I moved up to the .10-.20 tables and then finally after doing good and with a smaller than suggested bankroll went up to .25-.50 games where I did good until a couple of nights of running terrible took half my bankroll.

After that I gave up poker… for about a week. I did not like the feeling of being defeated so instead of grinding back in Horse I started playin SNG’s because I thought it would be a “quick” way to grind a bankroll to take to the .25-.50 horse tables again but it turns out I run terribly unlucky on the bubble(HEM luck adjusted says so) and went even further south, however after playing a few SNG I found that everytime I found myself heads up I would crush. If I got down to two people I was pretty confident I could take it down.

I researched info about the profitability of HU SNG’s and it turns out that they seem to be a very good way to grind up a bankroll while learning to play many hands heads up and are very fun(kind of). So I have decided that I will turn all of my focus to HU SNG’s and stick to them as I go up the ranks and learn from them.

I am going to end this one here because its running long and continue with it in the next one about what I have done so far with HU SNG’s.
