I busted out on the bubble in a $30 SNG, but then took second in a $22 turbo SNG. I should have taken first, but had some bad luck. Here are some of the hands that took place heads up against Tenbucks. We started out, me with $10,560, Tenbucks with $2340. I win the first hand taking his blind of $600. On the next hand, he goes allin with 69o and I call with Q7s. A 9 flops and he doubles up to $3480. We trade blinds until I flop top pair with my JQo and he goes allin with A3o. I call and an A rivers giving him $5760. Very next hand, I have A6o, he has JQo (look similar?). I raise 3x BB, he reraises allin, I call. A J on the turn hurts me. He has $9920, I have around $3000. We trade blinds again until I get QTo and raise allin. Tenbucks calls with 89o and with no improvement by wither of us, I double up to $8760. We trade more blinds and the blinds up to $500/$1000. I raise with J8s, he reraises allin with 78o. I have him dominated. Flop comes 29T, and the turn, a J, gives him his straight doubling him to $7480. When the blinds get up to $600/$1200, I am getting desparate and fustrated, and go allin with 67s. He calls with J7o and makes his straight.
I decide to try the Pitbull interface with a small safe .05/.10 NLH game. Not bad. I leave in 20 minutes with a $1.21 profit.

Getting down to HU with a commanding chip lead can be frustrating. I played 4 HU matches yesterday and lost all of them when having my opponent covered and getting my $ in with the best of it. Uggg...guess I should stick to the 6-max's and full table SnG's. Best of luck and enjoy your weekend.
Yes, it can be. Especially when I consider heads-up the best part of my game. I change gear so drastically, that players lose all their chips before they get over the shock of how my game has changed. I know, over the long run, I will come out ahead. As long as I can get to that fun heads-up situation. Take care.
