| 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. |
