Played Heads up NL game today

[Enfuego]

For $1,000 and was nervous as shit. The blinds finally got to $75-$150. I had him 2 to 1 and had a J-7 and he put me all in with a K-6. He won the showdown on that one. I got him down 2-1 again and he put me all in with Q-6 and I called with 10-7 off. A 10 came on the turn for the winner for me.

Damn, I was stressed.

[Enfuego]

Good Deal

[The General]

Good for you and Yay for the poker tourneys coming in the future.

What exactly were you nervous about? Just winning or did you buy in for too big of a % of your bankroll?

I would also be nervous in a dime buy-in NL heads-up game. Nice job.

i have been playing poker more lately and know what you mean. the one thing i have noticed is that odd hands actually win and strong hands seldom hold up....i lost to a pair of 2's (i had ace/king)...funny game

man I hate playing No Limit Heads Up. I will NEVER play one and I while I love being in the position to play heads up at the end of a sit and go or in live play, it's only because I'm in the final two.

It's not that I don't think I have an advantage if I play right, it just is too much anxiety for me.

It wouldn't matter if I was playing for five dollars or five thousand. I hate losing. And my patience starts to wear thin, and you just can't allow that to happen.

Glad to hear you came out victorious!
