Here are some results and a funny chat transcript. I have been running into a lot of people that have been like, "Yeah sure buddy" when I try and sit with them....lol

I have been absolutely hooked on playing heads up since watching Kyle and his buddy Rich play a bunch of it when they were at my house a few days ago. I love playing 10 tables too, of course, but I think it would be pretty nice if I could add HU to my arsenal. I have sooooooo long to go before I get really good which is kind of exciting. I have been trying to play a lot of my normal games, but during breaks I am hanging out with my wife watching TV while 1-2 tabling HU.

So far my results are pretty decent. I got off to a bad start in losing about $2k after my first 1,500 hands. Since that small learning curve, I have gotten my game together a little better and mashed a bunch of the mid stakes guys. I am trying to avoid the regulars because they probably have small edge on me at this point (I have no idea really, just guessing) and if I start off with shitty results then I will get frustrated and want to geo back to 6 max and full ring. When I become confident in my game I will sit with all of the regulars who will surely put me in some more difficult spots and my learning curve should accelerate when that happens. For now though I think I am just going to take advantage of the fact that Stoxpoker has 3 good HU pros (Kyle, Nick and Bryce) that all have markedly different styles. I am going to watch some of their videos and cherry pick through their styles as to what suits me.
