Welcome to Heads-Up!

Welcome to the start of Event #29, the $10,000 World Championship Heads-Up No-Limit Hold'em. Two hundred fifty-six players will take to the tables today in the Brasilia room, battling it out in what some consider to be the truest form of poker. We expect the field to be dominated by pros, but there are already a good number of unknowns sitting down.

The doors have just been opened, and the players are beginning to trickle into their seats. They'll be laid out with two matches at each table and a dealer on either end of the oval. We expect to be underway pretty close to the scheduled start time of 5:00pm. Sit tight, we'll be right back.
