HU poker is easy....

.... when you run hot and people spew to you

I didn't really feel like playing much more poker today(usually happens after I win a decent amount of money) so when I got home tonight I decided to sit around at HU tables between 2/4 and 5/10 and see if anyone wanted to play me. Well after about 2 hours of sitting alone, messing around on the internet, and watching some poker videos a fish finally sat with me at 2/4. We 1 tabled for about an hour and I ended up losing like $18 to him.

Here is the biggest pot we played just so you can get a look at his skillz

The last 3 hands all literally happened in a 30 second time frame, and after the last one he said that he'd had enough and he was done for the day. So I ran pretty hot but he made some pretty speculative plays as well. Lucky me. Finish the day at +$9.7k, veryyy niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice. Good night.
