    As an alternative to our usual “skill enhancement table” or consolation games, select venues are now also offering a different way to play while waiting for the next regular game.
HEAD'S-UP CHALLENGE GAMES
   When two players agree to play, we will provide cards and chips, and those players will play “heads up” until there is a winner.  Starting stacks are T5,000.  Blinds start at 100/200 and do not advance.
    Breaks can be taken by agreement between the players.
    Ten points will be added to the loser's bank, while 25 points will be awarded the winner. Players risk no points.
    Results will also be posted separately from regular tournament play, so that players can track the best heads up players.
     This format is only offered by Holdem Northwest.  As with all of our innovations, it is a work in progress.  After you have given it a try, let us know how it can be improved.
Good Luck!
     Practice and improve your skill at this challenging aspect of Texas Holdem.
