I picked up the Friday Night Poker title again this week. Jordan and I had a really awesome game of heads up after the others were knocked out. The game was small with only 5 players, but thanks to rebuys we built the pot up to $180, I was in for only $20 this week. When we got down to heads up Jordan had about $20 more than me. Jordan was down to $13 at one point, I think my lowest was about $25 or so. We did 5 or 6 major swings back and forth over an hour and a half span, both of us refusing to give up while short stacked. I eventually took most of the chips with a a Qh Jh, while he held a J 7. The flop came down J brick brick, he went all in and I called. I doubled up and left him with about $20 remaining and it was over a few hands later.
Great game Jordan. Most fun I’ve had heads up in our cash games yet. I can’t believe we lasted for an hour and half heads up.. usually takes about 15-20 minutes for a winner to emerge.
I’ve been running really well lately, with a total of 7 wins out of the last 9 weeks we’ve played, and I’m up a little over $1000. That is after my buyins are deduced, net pay if you will.
