What's your quickest heads up game?

[Indestructable]

Playing in a 4 player Heads up tournie on Pokerstars and 2nd hand I get
  
and end up all in versus
 
Flop
 
And turn and river no good to him. Don't think he was too happy 
But I went on to win in a very good final, but I had to wait ages for the other game to finish first.
Has anyone one a game first hand yet?

[Claw75]

Yep once - As vs JJ.

Went all in recently with Q-Q on the first hand and got called by A-X. Nice.

I will have to keep going all in first hand until I win one then. 

[Claw75]

I will have to keep going all in first hand until I win one then. 

I think that was my last opponents game!  All in first hand, I folded, he picked up my blind. I get AK next hand and make a small raise.  He reraises all in with J7.  He's got 40 chips left after that one and I get dealt 74 os - lovely!

flopped a full house with  , checked til the river where they made a straight

[Royal Flush]

Many times.

Played a few hundred turbos on Tribecca (where the blinds go up every minute)

A fair few were over in one hand.

Was loving them at first, I thought that a tournament not lasting more than 6 minutes was the way forward. 
Turns out I couldn't beat the rake.
