Heads-up play?

Is heads-up a good strategy to count against? i know it might be harder to count because its faster, but you also get more hands in, therefore increasing your potential profit. For me, this is my first trip to a US casino, but i think im competent enough to count playing with only the dealer. I plan to play low stakes ($10), so if i play heads-up, what's a good spread (prob needs to be high bec wonging out is harder), and do i need any camo?

thanks in advance!

Heads Up

In most places and most definately in Atlantic City, your chances of having a heads up game with a $10 minimum are slim, very slim even. You can get this at the Tropicana in Vegas on a weekday at 3-5 AM maybe but not anywhere in Atlantic City at any time. People will jump right in there and it will be a miracle if you can get a few HANDS heads up. If you want to go a $25 minimum bet there are nomidshoe tables available in places in AC. Most of the $10 minimum tables in AC are 8 decks, H17 also. AC likes grinding the lower stakes players for all it's worth.

All that being said... heads up play gives you more hands per hour, more action.

If you want heads up play at that level try northern nevada.Play 4am to 11am. I play those times and play heads up most of the time when playing weekdays.
