ty nipitiri3. I hope you enjoyed the heads-up. He was a tough player. I had him at 400k chips , and then he managed to get over 1.6 mil and i was at 1.4 mil down from 2.4 mil i think. At the last hand he lost his minds. dont know why. He tryed to bluff me with 5c As on river ( didnt understand him ), and i had Th Qs. 7s Ts 6h 9c Tc. River was with me, lucky me. I bluffed him many times for stealing the blindes i dont know about him, but as far i saw, he played only good and very good hands. Im happy that i managed to beat a canadian at heads-up . I know canadians are good in poker. Most of them. I have a hard time with them all the time.

Ty, well it tookes 2 hours and 13 mins , not so much. it took 2 hours and something for final table, then in no time we were 3 ppls left, and then on heads-up it was like 30-40 mins i think. So the heads-up keep me at the table so much. I forgot why i loved limit, no donkeyfest. But then i got into NL, and stoped playing limit cause it took so long in the beginning, but then when high lvl , its easier. You need patience at the beginning.
