Okay I am not sure if this is the BEST place for this thread but it seemed that this was a strategy type of question/discussion so here goes....


I am planning a Head's Up Tourney for Sat. 2 guys who played in the even last year are not playing this year and their brother and his son (who played last) all are claiming that there is no skill in this type of tournament there is only luck.

I feel the opposite. I stated that there is an art to stealing blinds, and a science to realizing where you are at in the hand and if you are ahead you need to monopolize on it.

Now I will not argue that there is short term variance and that luck does not play a roll at all, but the whole tournament can't be about luck, can it??

So my question to everyone here is....what are your thoughts on the arguments for skill versus luck in a heads up match?


*While were at it....anybody got any good links for heads up strat or a good book I can pick up for next year??
