The World Poker Tour Game Theory Optimal Trainer now comes with the addition of the Heads-Up tournament training pack

There��s a pretty good chance that if you are reading this article, you��ve imagined getting heads up for a major tournament title. The excitement and pressure of playing for big money under the lights, your expert play and clutch decision making on display for the world to see. You might even have thought about what you would do with all that money when you win.

Each dream is a little different, although most of them go something like this.

Stacks of cash are spread across the felt. The Mike Sexton Champions Cup is brought to the table. The chairs are rearranged to only leave 2 competitors. Lynn Gilmartin grabs you for a quick interview and wishes you luck before the match. You are whisked to your chair and given a few last-minute instructions for television. It's time to face your foe for the payday of a lifetime and a chance to be immortalized as a WPT Champion.

You glance over at the monitor again to check the payouts. Over 25% of the total tournament prize pool remains. Most everyone else who made the money made just about 2x their initial buy-in back, but you are in line for a real score this time. The difference between first and second prize is equal to a few brand new cars. Suddenly it hits you.

This is far more money that I��ve even played for and there are a lot of people watching my every move in the audience. I haven��t had the chance to play much heads up, ever. This is going to be on TV and on reruns forever!

Okay, so most of us may never get the opportunity to get heads up for a WPT Main Event title. Even if you only play in home games, online, and smaller daily tournaments, working on your heads up play is still a vital part of growth and adding to your bottom line.
Variance can be a frustrating factor even in smaller events, so just because you play often doesn��t guarantee you��ll be heads up frequently. Often smaller daily tournaments and home games come with the added social pressure of players wanting to chop up the prize pool when the money is reached.

Finding an efficient way to study and practice heads up play can be challenging. If your goal is to improve as a player and win more tournaments, analyzing your heads up play is essential. Maximizing return on investment means making better decisions when the most money is on the line.
