Doyle vs. Amarillo Slim would be good for the battle for Texas

You know what is going to suck about this? There are going to be even more people who think it's a good play to go all-in with a pair of threes or ace-high after they watch the pros do it heads up.

is that a bad idea? 33 or A high is a winner more often than not heads up.

Of course, but I expect many of the viewers will not be able to distinguish that heads up is different than a full table.

The show will begin airing on NBC in May. Card Player magazine talked about the tournament and the winner, can't wait to see it.

64 players head to head and the winner's moving on. Kind of like the NCAA basketball tournament in March.

Bluff magazine on the shelves now has a layout of the first round matchups and some commentary of some of the early round stuff. I skipped most of it once I realized they were spoiling some of the show.
May 1st I think it said in the article that it started. Should start showing up in TV schedules. Twould be cool if it was in HD.

Juanda isn't Vietnamese. 
How about Master vs Apprentice? Men Nguyen vs Minh Nguyen?
And I would have to substitute Scott Fischman for Matusow in the battle of the jerks.
