Warning-No Real Content below, just mumbo jumbo.
I think 60-40 is about the best you can hope for in HU SNGs. It seems like it should be more because they are so soft, but when you consider the nature of the variance these games present, 60-40 seems right. |

Look at where your edge comes from in cash games or full-ring tourneys. #1 factor is your opponents play too many hands. Well, that's out the window in a HU SNG because the biggest mistake HU in a tourney is folding too often.
Plus you also must play more hands past the flop or you'll get run over. 3rd, the blinds keep going up, so you will regularly get forced into playing 52:48 for all your chips. In the end, your edge is solely on your ability to bully/manipulate your opponent as opposed to that being a small part of your arsenal vs a full table. Luck (as in who gets what cards) is a much bigger factor HU. You are much more at the mercy of the deck when HU in a tourney. HU cash games are different simply because the stack size vs the blinds remains high.

Thanks alot for that! Both kurn and mel. I see both your points.And they make total sence. 70% is way crazy. So then I feel pretty good about my 58% win rate and feel I played pretty damn good with a few stupid steemer calls.If I get rid of those mabey i'd be 61-62%. This was really fun and I think everyone should try it.Its a great way to build a roll especially with rakeback on your side.Thanks for all comments!

The top HU sng players at a given level tend to win about 2/3rds of the time over the long run.

That's pretty awesome if that's true (and I'm sure you have a source for that and aren't just guessing). Of course, you're also talking about the best of the best... I think striving for 60% is pretty reasonable for most good players.
