    The thing with heads up low stakes cash is the rake can hurt you both! if you both have £1000 at the table and the winner comes away with £1923 he is happy but if you both have £5 and the winner comes away with £8.60 you feel robbed lol

    This is correct. Even at £5/£10 the rake is a little frustrating...

    My advice would be to build up roll playing 6max and then make the transition much later on.

    The rake IS capped heads-up. I don't know why you would think otherwise.
    In fact it is capped at a lower level than for games where more people are playing.

    Would you like to explain what that means?
    It makes no sense to me, I'm afraid.
