I live within 7 or 8 hundred miles of Vegas, so if the weather cooperates I should be able to sit out on the back patio with my favorite adult beverage & listen Phil whine, without any problem. ;)

Wauuuu. Fantastic opportunity tô learn real poker!

Glad to hear that Helmuth wants a rematch. To be honest, I don't think either has that much of an advantage in a one off HU match, though I'd prefer Dwan to come out on top.

Kudos however to include the clip of Dwan giving Phil Helmuth a bad beat in the HU championship in the early days of Dwan's career. It's one of my favorite clips, I have it on my computer...in fact I have a few clips of Helmuth self-immolating on file.

One minute standing up and swaggering around in the center of the room to let one and all know he has Dwan on the ropes...then the bust and then the typical 'Son, I will tell you this much son...' lecture to which Dwan replies 'I was going to say good game, sorry for the suck out, but....'

The clip you are referring to is one my favourites, too!

Phil Hellmuth doesn't know such a word as losing. The rematch was a matter of time. The rules of the "High Stakes Duel" provide for this, but now the stakes are doubling. I think I'll be able to watch the first hour of the Heads-up Battle on the PokerGo. Then we will have to wait for the highlights of the best hands.

Thanks for the info Shells!

I think this is good news for me to put in my reminder to see if I feel like watching the broadcast.

It will be a good HU match! :D

Really excited to see this - Hellmuth has been on a huge heater and I'm curious what swan will bring to the table and how well Hellmuth adjusts

Tom is the only person to have crushed his spirit, where he played so scared
he wouldn't even limp with 8's.
Everyone knows losing
its what we do afterwards that counts

We shall see, won't we?

Tom took on Phil in the first round and came out the victor. I think this re-match will be awesome, honestly and we will see if the first round was a fluke or not.

38 hours before the start of the duel. If I'm wrong about the time, then it's the fault of Poker Go, which shows this information.:secruity:

I believe this is the third HU round between these two, didn't Tom win two already?

Will watch first hour on YouTube, don't have PokerGO currently but loved it when I was subscribed, fantastic back catalogue!

You are right, Tracid. This is the 3rd round - I'm thinking it's like the 2nd scheduled event, if that makes sense. Two rounds played the first go and now this one WHICH by the way, begins tomorrow!

I always like Hellmuth to win, like he says, he is a bad loser, but he is gentle when he wins..

And he is not that bad of a loser nowadays, his rants are more controlled now
