I will be in Vegas next weekend...March 3-7. I just found about about this tournament that will be taped for NBC. It is a head's up tourney with 64 of the top players in the world, including Daniel. Is anyone else going to be going to watch this? And is this type of tournament really able to be a fair litmus test as to the quality of poker someone plays....seems to me it will be a "luck-fest" as it is head's up all the way through. Let me know if you will be there and what you think about this event.

heads up poker is not a luck fest as long as both players have a good number of chips. The only luck filled heads up session would be on Battle of the Sexes where blings are like 30/60k with only 600k on the tableyou are de.ad wrong to think its all luck. Heads up poker is one of the most skillful parts of the game
