Toe in the water

Played my first session of heads up no limit last night!

Its frickin wicked! Love the action, love the psychology, love the battle! Really don't know why I didn't think of this before but hey ho.

Problem is though, I had trouble finding micro stakes games being spread. The lowest on Stars was NL50, same with Party and Full Tilt.

I ended up playing on Party and felted my first opponent before taking on a 50BB short stacker and ending up half a buy in down, momentum of the match changed when my top two pair was beaten by his set of Jacks but I'm happy.

I've been searching the net looking for lower stakes HU games and it seems Ipoker go as low as NL4 but I'll be aiming for their NL20 games if I shift the role over there.

The other option is Ultimate Bet, anyone played there on their new software?

I know there was a huge scandal etc but I'm sure things have changed and there is the added bonus of getting 30% rakeback which would be very nice.

Anyway, if anyone has an opinion on UB please comment, would love your thoughts, I'll download the software tonight and check things out.

If they don't spread HU at NL20 then its an easy choice for me as I want to be adequately rolled for the game and 20 buyins at NL50 is just to risky HU in my opinion.
