Heads-up can be a tricky aspect of tournament poker. Some of the best players in the world have problems adjusting to heads-up. You have to start playing a wider variety of hands and that makes it harder to read your opponents.

Another difficult aspect of heads-up to overcome is the fact that you are forced to play every single hand and focus during every moment of play. During full tables, it's possible to take a hand or two off and space out after mucking a hand.

The player who displays the best mental toughness usually prevails heads-up.
