And the Competitors are....

We have a great line up of Competitors....

1. * Veneno (aka HU Goddess)
Poker Stars - yosoyveneno
Location - California

I love playing Heads Up! Why? Cause the games are short. There is lots of action. I'm pretty good at it. And it is oh sooo satisfying to whip a man on the virtual felt. I don't mind a Catfight periodically, although, they are not nearly as appealing.

2. * Tripjax - HUC1 Champion
Poker Stars - tripjax
Location - North Carolina
Mildly mentally challenged, TripJax spends his days chasing squirrels and his nights eating squirrels. When not chasing or eating squirrels, TripJax sells his signature Mystery Meat Soup on eBay and uses the proceeds to enter Heads-Up matches at various poker sites under the screen name NutNButNuts.

3. * HighonPoker (Jordan)
Poker Stars - HighonPokr (no E)
Location - New York

Jordan from High On Poker is a Sagitarius. He enjoys playing poker and recreational drug use. In his free time he paints, writes Haikus and enjoys a good book. His favorite smell is sulfur and his favorite color is lemon chiffon. Jordan was the originator and commissioner of the HUC1 and HUC2, and is proud to have Veneno as the new Commisioner of the HUC3. He looks forward to losing, as he inevitable does.


4. * SteelerJosh - Returning Fighter
Poker Stars - SteelerJosh
Location - Ohio
Computer Geek in NE Ohio seeking HU competitor. Must enjoy folding to my bluffs and calling my value bets. Hammer Dropper preferred. Interested in 1 on 1 and 4 on 4 action, I do it all!

5. * TraumaPoker - HUC2 Champ
Pokers Stars - TraumaPoker
Location - Georgia
6. * Smokkee
Location - California
Poker Stars - smokkee
7. * Ingoal
Poker Stars - Ingoal
Location - Germany
Ingoal from Poker-tastic.com is a student of software engineering during the day and a student of the game at night.

Best known for his participation in numerous blogger tourneys (DADI, WWdN) in the wee hours of the morning - he's located in Germany (ET+6) so most tournaments mentioned above are starting at ridiculous times like 2:30am.

The love of the game and the search for a tough game to beat are more than enough motivation to repress the need of sleep.

The reason why he decided to play in the HUC3 is simple: There's nothing better than a good poker game, especially if you're certain that you'll have a good time along with the chance to beat a player head to head!

8. * Hammer-Hoyzo
Poker Stars - Hoyazo
Location - New York
9. * PresidentDaveLee
Poker Stars - presdlee
Location - Maryland
New poker player and blogger check-raising his way to political office. Vote for dave, not a fuckup!

10. * WeakPlayer
Poker Stars - Weak_player
Location - Georgia
I joined the HUC because I want to escape from my cage and take over the world.

11. * Katitude
Poker Stars - Katitude
Location - Canada
Dear assorted Poker Gods and Goddesses; please accept my humble offering of the many chips that have been bled from me. I beseech you, I pray that you won't let me go out first. And while I don't want to appear greedy, it would be super nice if I could take out Veneno and/or place In the Money. TIA, your humble servant, Katitude.

12. * Doubleas
Poker Stars - Doubleas
Location - Virginia
I played the first HUC and had a blast, albeit outmatched. I missed getting into the second HUC by two minutes and six seconds. Once I missed HUC2, I started realizing other things I've missed out on in my life. I've never painted a big ball with polka dots. I've never farted in a hurricane. I've never punched a police person in the mouth. I've never drank enough alcohol to be admitted to the hospital for alcohol poisoning. I've never even urinated off the Eiffel Tower. So since then, I've done every one of those things I mentioned and I'm not feeling so good these days. If I missed the HUC3, I'd be worried I would be reminded of even more fun and exciting activities that I haven't tried. It could kill me. So having the ability to play in HUC3 is saving my life.


13. * Mowenumdown (Kelly)
Poker Stars - Mowenumdown
Location - Georgia
14. * Surflexus
Poker Stars - Surflexus

15. * Juliette
Poker Stars - Louddwnunder
Location - Australia
16 * BoobieLover (Wes)
Poker Stars - Boobie Lover
Location - South Dakota
17. * Blinders (Kevin)
Poker Stars - Blinders
Location - California
Heads Up poker is lame. I would rather be sitting at a 20 player single table cash game where my tightness would rule. Too much about playing the player and not enough about playing the cards for my liking. Somehow I do ok, but after about 15 minutes I get bored and a little push-happy. Hopefully I will get the matches done in 14 minutes or less.

I really enjoy playing heads up so thought I'd finally start to get involved a little bit in the blogger community. I read a ton of them but usually just in the background and don't comment. Found out about this through doublea's, probably my favorite blog to read beside paul phillips.

Drop the hammer
Peace
Reason for joining - I want in I am seeking revenge on WillWonka


Please test your links and let me know if I made any mistakes on this listing.

You missed the y in my name, it's spelled "FishyMcDonK". Note the captials F M D K. I have no idea why I capitalised the K. I hope I can live up to my screen name and suckout my way to victory.

Late as usual, I just transfered my money. 9PM or later should be perfect for me. PokerStars nick is ArtofSuckout.

Blurb:

My name should be Wwonka not billyb

Drop the hammer
Peace
Wwonka (billyb)

You can use this for my blurb.

V, this blurb thing is hysterical. Special kudos to TripJax and DoubleAs. Funny stuff!

Oh, and I'm based in Pleasanton, CA. Random assignments are fine with me, and I prefer playing anytime after 8pm west coast time.
