National Heads Up Poker Championship
Danny N.'s Blog-Matchups
A couple really jump out at me like David Sklansky v. Phil Ivey and Phil Hellmuth v Men the Master, but I'd LOVE to watch the Duke/Fischman battle. For some reason I really think Duke will school him. Plus if Duke and Danny both win their first 3 matches then the two will face off, and their is definitely no love lost between those two. I would bet tons on Elezra kicking the tar out of moneymaker but maybe Chris will surprise us. Anyway, just thought I'd start a post as I didn't see one yet. Brad |

Good to see Mike Caro finally getting his nose fully into the poker boom. Hope he waxes Scotty Nguyen.

That field is out of control. What a tournament. That's a who's who, if I ever saw one.

Re: National Heads Up Poker Championship
How about Friedman vs Farha?
Two action players that can and will play any hand any way. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] |

Re: National Heads Up Poker Championship
In the order of my interest:
1) Sklansky - Ivey 2) Hellmuth - Men the Master 3) Juanda - Chau Giang 4) Spirit Rock - Farha 5) Lederer - Magician As long as NBC doesn't butcher this it should be awesome. |

Re: National Heads Up Poker Championship
Friedman versus Farha.....
Now thats gonna be interesting or over really fast. If all the cards come even ( and heads up they almost never do) Ivey will take out Sklansky 6-7 times out of 10...if anything this is one of the more lobsided matchups..this is NL correct? I love Sklansky but NLH isnt his best game at all and Ivey simply plays 25x as much poker as Sklansky does. Remember, me saying that is not a criticism of Sklansky as much as an acknowledgment of how strong Ivey is as a player. |

Re: National Heads Up Poker Championship
If they released an unedited version on DVD I would buy it in a heartbeat. That many maches would be amazing.
I hope to god they dont screw this one up. Have they listed the blind structure any where? I assume they will be given a lot of chips to play with... |

Re: National Heads Up Poker Championship
Does anyone have any background on Yosh Nakano, Henry Orenstein or Dennis Wagner? These are the only 3 players in the bracket I am not at all familiar with.
Thanks, KennyBanya |

Re: National Heads Up Poker Championship
Yea I was wondering what the money line on the skalansky Ivey match up would be. Any other speculation?
I'm sure NBC will do a good job, I would love to buy a dvd showing all the matches card for card as well. |
