I decided to try a little HU today, to see if I still hate poker.

Here are three of my favorite hands from the session. And yes, I realize this is part of the game and all that crap, but when you are on the bad end of these 20 times more than the good end.... I mean, WTF???

This idiot started with less than $60, and finished with around $360, if I recall.
