Welcome back to another round of the Full Tilt Poker Heads-Up Challenge, where we throw 64 of our top pros into the ring for some WWE style madness (editors note: while these “matches” are not fixed like wrestling, they are completely made up and have no baring on reality whatsoever – enjoy!). This week’s cage match is a three seed versus 14 seed affair, as Erik “I thought Chan was bluffing” Seidel takes on Brad “I come from C-eh-N-eh-D-eh” Booth. Let the mayhem commence:

Another week means another round of the Full Tilt Poker Heads-Up Challenge is set to commence. Sure, the National Heads-Up Championship just took place and “March Madness” is about to tip off today (my money is on Boise State – go Broncos!), but I still say that we’re the best and most exciting single elimination tourney around. Today’s bout is the last of our two versus 15 matchups, with Gus “The Wilt Chamberlain of Poker” Hansen taking on Beth “I can do a lot of things with poker chips (wink, wink)” Shak. Check out the full bracket below, on to the showdown:

Who else is super pumped up for this one? I’m so excited that I can barely contain myself. Really – I am. This week’s edition of the Full Tilt Poker Heads-Up Challenge features our third 2 versus 15 match up as John “It’s probably a good thing I stopped selling Bibles door-to-door” Juanda takes on Lynette “At least I have my good looks to fall back on” Chan. My gut is telling me this one might be a blow out, but stranger things have happened. On to the madness and mayhem:

Welcome back to another round of the Full Tilt Poker Heads-Up Challenge. This week we have another 2 versus 15 match-up as Phil “If I have to announce another stupid celebrity poker tournament I’m going to kill myself” Gordon takes on Kristy “My ex-husband can’t kick a football” Gazes. After our first big upset in the challenge last week the only question is, will history repeat itself? Only time will tell. And me. Because I write these and get to decide…
At any rate, you can check out the full bracket below. On to the match:

Welcome back to another round of the Full Tilt Poker Heads-Up Challenge, where we take 64 of our top pros and pit them against one another like abused dogs picked up off the street by Michael Vick. This week’s match features number one seed Howard “The Professor” Lederer taking on the 16 seed Karina Jett. Can you say mismatch? Oh well, let’s just get this formality out of the way so we can move on to greener pastures.

Another week has passed, so that means it’s time for another round of the Full Tilt Poker Heads-Up Challenge. 64 of our top pros will go into battle, but only one will be victorious when it’s all said and done. This week’s match features number one seed Chris Ferguson − Jesus himself − taking on the 16th seeded David Oppenheim, cash game specialist and golfer extraordinaire. As with all of these one versus 16 match-ups, the 16 seed has absolutely no chance, it’s merely a formality. Feel the excitement!

Welcome to the Full Tilt Poker Heads-Up Challenge, where we take 64 of our top poker pros and pit them against one another in a “March Madness” style tournament bracket. Over the coming months, the field will be whittled down one by one until we’ve determined a winner. For those of you who are confused and came to this page thinking this has something to do with poker because it’s called a “Heads-Up Challenge,” we apologize. False advertising, ain’t it a bitch?
