    Default Heads-up open challenge

    I will play anyone up to 5/10 NL at any of the following sites: Bodog, PartyPoker, UB, PokerRoom, InterPoker, Full Tilt, or Stars. If you want to play higher, let me know and I may consider. Also, I will not play anyone lower than 1/2.

    No, I don't like freezeouts. Here's the rules.
    1. You must buy-in full.
    2. You must reload when you fall below 50% of the buy-in.
    3. You must sit down for at least 30 minutes, or until you lose 2 full buy-ins.
    4. Public flaming and name-calling is completely unacceptable, and such behavior will not be condoned at the table.

    Worm you interested? I see you are the Gauntlet Champion, I bet you would chew me up heads-up with your tourney chops and what not. As many have already stated, I am a fish who has somehow donked his way upwards, I have no idea what I'm doing , please take my money before someone else does. I don't even know what a kicker is. So please play me.

    This post sounds like an ego-driven attempt to prove to no one that you are good.

    ...because beating people HU is the way to do that.

    Limit? sure.

    NL? no

    And even then, its retarded to think that any one session can prove how good one person is over another. I had the same argument with some guys at 2p2 like a year ago.

    You want to prove you are good? Post 100-200k hands with your winrate or 5000 sngs or MTTs with a decent winrate.

    But then the question arises, whats the purpose of proving how good you are to everyone else? In my experience, I earn much more money when people think I do suck. The people who really are good, know they are good, don't have to prove to others how good they are, and are humble about how good they are.

    When did I say anything about proving how good I am? Certain individuals in the forum expressed their interest in playing against me, so I've provided an opportunity for them to do so. Or are you referring to the

    Didn't think I'd ever say it, but I agree with PO$$E$$ED. He simply and politely extended an HU challenge to anyone that might be interested. There was no mention of egos or who might be better than someone else until you brought it up Jeff. I don't see how this is any different than all the other HU threads that have been posted or the LHE HU tournament that is going on now. Those threads didn't degenerate into pissing contests. Why should this one?

    Because:

    Sealed the deal to me, as well as his response:
    I'm not sure what you're talking about...
    You want to play HU jeff?
    didnt deny the fact either.

    I just got a bad feeling about it, thats all. And for the time being its not a pissing contest; I never said he was or wasn't good as I've never read one post by him or not. And if he wants to play me HU LHE I will, but I doubt he will.

    This should be interesting just because HUNL always is but like jeff said, not 1, 2, or even 7 HU sessions can prove the better player. I think possessed has a definite advantage over anyone who doesn't regularly play 5-10NL because others will value the money more than him. For example, if I played 25Nl HU against someone who's bankrolled for 25nl only, I think I'd kill them partly because the money there means nothing to me.
