| If you win more than you lose eventually it will be profitable. |

but I mean is it possible to make good money like at least 500$ a month by playing 10$ heads up games not just play with your starting money
and by the way, what bankroll do you need to play heads up games? how much money can you spend on one buy in game? |

Depending on how good you run and your skill $500 is possible from that level in a month. I believe 50 buyins is standard for most players (40-60 works). For $10 games a $550 bankroll would be sufficient. |

thanks for your suggestion but I believe that in heads up games you do not need such a big bankroll... or maybe  |

| it depends if you play the same person who is bad then yes but if you play someone who matches you then you most likely go a little up or a little down. at least that is how i was playing a lot of headsup |
