Talk about getting lucky heads up...

10+1 NL on PP - got down to heads up down about 3:1 in chips, worked my way back into it over a grueling half hour of grinding heads-up. Solid player, definitely not the usual "lottery" style heads-up play we all know and love on PP. Anyways, I got myself into trouble trying to slowplay my rockets, but Lady Luck bailed me out.
