So, like a dork I signed up for the HUC6, even though the last time I progressed far enough to be heads up with anyone was in 1986 (or so it feels).
The opponents have been set, and I'm battling mdemontecristo in the first round, someone who is a complete unknown to me. In preparation, I've been catching up on some reading, and have practiced in some HU SnG's on tilt over the last two nights.
My results:
Monday night, 6 played, 6 won.
Tuesday night: 4 played 0 won.
The main difference between Monday night and Tuesday night is the level of distractions I inflicted on myself. Monday had me playing just that table, no tv, no other Windows open, with only some chillin' lounge on the radio. On Tuesday, I had a 2 table $5 SnG open with Weak_Player, IM windows for Weak, Waffles, Instant Tragedy and Joanada, and I had Firefox open as I booked my hotel for Eh-Vegas (accommodation details later today or tomorrow).
Note to self: there is NO TIME for that crap in HU!
Tonight is my match against mdemontrcristo, after 10:30 or so EST. Not sure if I'm going to indulge in the Mookie tonight or not, have to play that by ear. I really want to win tonight as it means I get to play against Waffles.
