I've done a lot of 10 blitz (1+ million hands at WPN). All I can say is if you have the skills to beat the level in Zone would not be different from blitz. The fish that you see there are still fish at blitz. The only difference is you can spot the fish faster because they allow hud on blitz...and they go broke faster as well. Against other regs, you will not make much money from them if at all with or without hud.
They say you are at a disadvantage against other regs at WPN who use a hud if you don't. Well, yes, but then again, even with it, you don't want to get involved in a confrontation that yields very low positive expectation.
In a nutshell, if you're a winner at zone, blitz won't dramatically turn you into a big loser.
