been a heads up hyper specialist which typically involves a lot of all in situations i think i can throw a few things into this.

yes to do well in an mtt or win a heads up hyper you need to win a flip or two etc.

the question is how many flips?

and thats where it becomes relevant if your down to 10 blinds and look down at AJs no action before you its a clear push. barring unique tournament structure and once in this spot its out of your control there is no more strategy and its down to luck.

but the question is what got you into this spot?

some of the time its due to bad luck just not going your way but a lot of the time for many people its because they gave away chips they didnt need to and didnt exploit the situation to take chips they could have.

there is always a higher probability, of a weaker player been short stacked then a tougher player.

often in heads up hypers i out play my opponent post flop wittling them down to 250 chips or so ( thats half starting stack of 500) for those that dont know.

now they need to win two all ins to take the match versus one.

what you will find is for heads up hypers is you cant win them without winning all ins, but if your a good player you need to win less of these all ins then a bad player.

yes you need to win all ins and flips to succeed at mtts but the fact is luck balances out for everyone with a large enough sample and bad players need to win more flips then good players thats what a lot of people miss.
