Isildur1 vs Daniel Cates superstars showdown 30th Jan

[only_bridge]

Yeah, was a really interesting matchup.

In the beginning the match was more or less even, then Cates took a big lead, and everyone said that he was the best, and Blom didnt stand a chance.
I dont really know what happened after that, but all of a sudden Blom had a commanding lead, and was pretty much outplaying Cates.

What I liked was that 2500 hands is much more managable than 50,000 that the Durrrr Challenge consist of. Im not sure but I still dont think Durrr and Patrick ever did finish there challenge.

Sounded like a great match with the two biggest post being Isildur's King high flush against Cates Queen high flush (with the suited ace being in the community) and the other hand was the rivered straight of bloom's against the set for Cates.

Would love to see more of them two. They seem to be two of the best at head's up NLHE.

The best player probably won here, but I'm a little annoyed by the small number of hands played in these challenges. I would consider 10k hands of HU to also be too few, but it would be a start. 2500 is a joke.

I don't think its a joke. How long do you want these matches to take?

Do you want them to play for 2 days straight or something? If it was much more than 2500 hands they would need to break it up into multiple sessions, and the second session would be hard to get going.

I like this super star showdown better than durrr challenge..There hasent been any action in the durrr challenge in months at least isildur showdown finishes in a few hours.
