I can't put a limit on the highest I would consider playing. Right now, I think $200 would be my comfortable limit, but certainly I could play for more than that down the road if my "HU Bankroll" allowed me too. If after a year, I'm up $100k playing HU matches (bear with me - just an example), you're not going to see me wasting my time with $100 ones any more, ya know?

There are a number of things I find very appealing about these:
1. I feel like I have more control over the outcome than I do a SNG.
2. They are quick - anywhere from a few minutes to 40. Average is probably 15-20.
3. You can't get cheated. Collusion is impossible, since you only have one opponent, and I'll GLADLY play HU NL with any bot.

Now that I'm moving up to $100 (and because of my good start, which I'm sure is above where my long term numbers will be), I expect my ROI to drop... but because I'll be playing for double the stakes, that's ok. It can drop to just over half as much and I'll still come out ahead by moving up.
