Out of the blue yesterday I started playing a few $6.25 HU Turbo SNG's. I used to play the $5.25 non-turbos a while back and was trying to see if I could make a steady profit in them. I found very soon that it wasn't very profitable..I was barely breaking even and....I was a TERRIBLE heads up player. Since playing ring, my post-flop game has improved tons, so I decided to give these a shot. Now, I didn't want to put false ideas in my head, but so far, so good. I only have a 42 game sample, but they're extremely soft. I've found it very easy to just grind your opponent to the ground by playing very aggressively in position and less pots OOP. I've profited $97 in just the last two days and am considering playing these a lot more often. I'm going to try getting around a 100 game sample or so after the weekend.
Also, note: I am by no means declaring myself to be a fantastic HU player, but I think I understand the basics. I watched an interview over the summer of Kenny Tran after the won the WSOP HU event, as he talked about rarely ever having a hand in heads up play. Like I said, these low limits are sooooo soft and easy to beat. Will update after 100.

My heads up game consists of push/fold at the end of SnG's.
It's one area that definitely needs tons of work. Glad to see you're having success with it!
