Can someone recommend a web-site where I can find advice for “heads-up” poker (texas holdem)?

My poker play is pretty good on a table with a few people playing, but once tournament get down to 2 or 3 people, the same tactics just do not work. Can anyone give any advice (or point me to a site that can) on playing head 2 head?

2 or 3 play is different from the rest, you have to take more chances and raise preflop with ok cards instead of waiting for the nuts. Any ace combination is an automatic raise preflop, or any pair. Protect your BB’s because if you are folding a lot with only 2 or 3 left people will start to think you’re weak and purposely raise your blinds to steal them. Don’t all in preflop though, try to see a flop if you are on blinds. Protection and aggression work well heads up and 3 or 4 play. Any of the major card sites have tips from the pros though, FTP or Pokerstars are good for tips.
