Playing to tight" you have to bluff more, and other times just call them down, or fold, but a face card with a rag is usually enough to call the blinds with.

Sometimes I played too tight and too passive. I think this is a big mistake

Buying in too deep and trying to force a big pot

Anytime I try to force the action I find the patience opponent ends up getting all my chips :)

As most players that aren't well versed in HU poker, I play too tight and then 'open up' in wrong spots.

Stay calm .

Just stay calm and remember that the opposite player gets 2 cards just like you do. My biggest problem was a bankroll management. Nowadays my biggest problem is to stay focused 4 tables and more.

Tilting.

Before I played on ACR, I actually had done pretty well avoiding tilt, but on that site just too much magic happens extremely consistently. It's gotten to the point where I lose to suckouts AND I am making bad decisions so it's not all bad luck, although it IS really bad. Makes you wonder how random that RNG really is.

They likely don't do it on purpose, probably some inherent flaw in the algorithm.

Giving in to the tilt rather than making the right move.

Getting too creative.

Such a good problem to ask. I almost never make it to heads up. Shit I almost never make it to the final table.

My biggest mistake is being aggressive, since the final tables have gone well despite being aggressive, having a top 10, many times I prefer to wait playing passively, with the best increasing little by little! Shy players in a heads-up lose, as another will notice and look for a way to get it out, there is always the possibility of winning by being aggressive. !!!

Playing Tight is a must

I play tight so you better have good cards, it is rare that I bluff. This will be the only tell I give away on this sight. Playing tonight so we shall see. Have fun Capo1014

My biggest mistake in heads-up is trying to bluff and get the pot in 80% of the cases. Because knowing that in heads-up very rarely you can have a very strong hand, but actually I am wrong sometimes and have to understand that, but it is not easy.:D
