Hmm

Okay so you probably all recognise me as being a very terrible player but normally I play on here just for fun :D
But this is just starting to feel ridiculous now; since I changed up my play style to be tighter and more aggressive in heads up it seems that I hit no hands and am constantly being bulldozered by variance... any advice or tips here? My hands seem to be geared either suck me in or to play out very badly for the last few days.

    It comes with the territory unfortunately bud!

    Due to the fast nature of these games, you're never gonna be far ahead, or far behind pre flop (or rarely), so your edges are gonna be small and your varience sky high!

    Obviously I'm not gonna comment too much on your play as we meet alot, but I will say you're a much improved player (in my opinion).

    Stick at it, these hands will start holding soon.

    Glad to see it's not just me running bad in the shove wars, unlucky mate. I take it these are HUsng hypers?

    Thanks DOH, we do have a few good battles the rest are simply equations as to who is the most tired player :D

    Yeah step they are hypers, however it just seems to be the same over the board. I don't mind losing at all it's just the way in which it happens and the fact that even look through most the above, if I didn't go all in before the flop then I would have done at the flop... also I'm being thrown terrible cards and so have to goon pretty much.

    Anyway on to round 7801 I guess!
