I actually sorta like HU razz.

It's like the ultimate game of chicken. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

One thing that does suck is getting down to heads-up in a razz MTT, being against somebody who plays chicken just as fearlessly as you do (but not so much more fearlessly that you can get paid when you actually have cards), having enough chips and such slow ante/bet increases that very little headway is made per hand, and having the cards break so abnormally even that you play for what feels like ages while staying basically even in chips.

That was pretty painful.

We eventually agreed to straddle/bring-in full every hand just to get the action going, and the cards started breaking in my favor.
