Seiver Backs Out of High Stakes Duel $1.6 Million Hellmuth Rematch; Who Will Take His Spot?
Level 6
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
You can go ahead and forget about the preview article we wrote a few days back on the $1.6 million High Stakes Duel III rematch between Phil Hellmuth and Scott Seiver, scheduled for August 22 on PokerGO, because the game has been called off.
Citing personal reasons, three months after his Round 4 defeat, Seiver has decided to back out of the match, leaving the seat open for a new challenger to face Hellmuth, who is 9-1 on the heads-up poker show.
Time for a Break
Level 6
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Players are now on their second break of Day 1c. There are currently 136 runners in the tournament and registration will close at the beginning of Level 7.
