I haven't read the HH yet, but just reading that coming from you made me laugh :P (thinking: is rippy getting mad at someone pushing against *him* with 74o?)
No, that's not an insult, please don't take it personally; I know you know what you're doing.
Now, to read
----edit - I just read it-----
wow, yeah. Well played - your play seemed solid, though I did have to look closer at some hands.
I do have one question though: On hand 10, why call the all-in on the flush draw? It seems like a really loose play.

Haven't been here that long but just from what I've read it also seemd kind of funny to me for Rippytyde to talk about the other player being a maniac 
Glad you pulled it out in the end

Ditto on hand 10. Pot is small, and you have no high card value. Fold to the all-in.

A what? "utter maniac". FrankyFiggs seems to me to be an aggressive heads-up player who from what I can see probably wins as much as he loses. If you had a chance to ask him, he would probably say the same about you. It always makes me smile when I here one aggressive player call another aggressive player a maniac.
Maybe I'm not seeing what you are seeing, but could you point out the best examples of what you are talking about.

Insane people are always sure that they are fine. It is only the sane people who are willing to admit that they are crazy.

I'd lean more towards the maniac description than aggressive. He's going all in on some weak hands.

It's heads-up. *Very* different hand standards.
These things tend to be a cross between a shoving match and catching someone with a second best hand they'll go all-in with.
