$25k Heads-Up PLO World Championship
Posted by AlCantHang | Filed under Bloggers on the Rail
In all the excitement of the November Nine, FTOPS XIV, and the Isildur1 cash game craziness I completely lost track of the upcoming $25k Heads-Up PLO World Championship.
In addition to the standard Big Money Sunday games, today at 15:00ET brings a tournament that will feature most of the top players from the online and live poker world. The buyin alone will narrow the field to the best players in Pot Limit Omaha, the game which has quickly taken over as the HU game for those risking huge swings. Phil Ivey and Patrik Antonius are already registered and it’s only a matter of time before newly minted member Tom “durrrr” Dwan is in the field. You’ll find Andy Bloch and Erik Seidel signed up as well as “Annette_15″ Obrestad and crazy man Tony G. It wouldn’t be a high stakes Heads-Up these days if you didn’t see Isildur1 registered for the tournament.
The field will be capped at 64 and we halfway there. Full Tilt continues to run satellites for this incredible event, chances to win yourself on “the cheap”. The tournament ID is 116764959, the satellites are listed in the lobby. I will be surprised if it does not fill before the start leaving a small number of players shooting for part of the $1,600,000 prizepool.
I will be there along the rail to catch and report that action. Look for updates.

Considering Big Donkey’s strong aversion to heads-up play, we thought it best if I took a crack at giving you a recap of the largest buy-in heads-up tourney ever. Without further ado, let’s get this show on the road:

It’s Huge!
Posted by Big Donkey | Filed under Bloggers Corner
So, the incredibly massive $25K Heads-Up World Championship starts tomorrow on FTP. It’s going to be huge in every sense of the word: a giant buy-in, an incredible field, huge interest from railbirds across the Interwebs… you name it.
And, for some reason, I really don’t care that much.
