Paul Wasicka defeated Chad Brown in consecutive matches last night to win the third NBC Heads-Up Championship. It was an impressive-looking performance, even more so because I watched from the NBC production truck so I could see all the cards. Wasicka played a very tricky game and a very gutsy game. The live updates from www.pokerwire.com and, of course, the NBC broadcasts on seven Sundays in April and May will give you a better feel of the hand-for-hand stuff. I hope the thousands of words I spent on the tournament gave you some feeling for what it was like in the tournament room, some info about the combatants, and a little of what I picked up about heads-up play. These are things from my notes that I didn’t share over the weekend, before we leave the 3rd Heads-Up Championship to history and the airwaves.

Two of Mike Matusow‘s all-time spooks met in one of the semifinals, Gavin Smith and Chad Brown. Although Shannon Elizabeth and Paul Wasicka squared off at the same time for the other semifinal, all the action in Smith/Brown took place while Elizabeth and Wasicka were sparring.

Today is Sunday, and there are just eight players left in the NBC Heads-Up Championship. It will be a long day ahead. I am not only ignorant of how it will turn out but how I will be covering it. But that’s part of the fun, isn’t it? Anything can happen. When it’s over, we could be crowning the first female heads-up champion. I might cover it from a table in Full Tilt Poker‘s $400,000 Guarantee.
You just never know until it happens.

By the time many of you read this, the matches I’m previewing will be long completed. But read on! The great thing about a competition like this is that anything is possible. When they haven’t played the matches yet, you can imagine anything. While the reality sometimes matches the imagination and on rare occasions exceeds it, every matchup is full of possibility before it happens. This is how the Final 32 shape up:
