| Kinda disappointed that Patrik Antonious is not participating, but he actually doesn't seem like great heads up player. It would be fun to see Helmuth vs. Dwan. |

Patrick is on that list, look at the end of the forth line! You better buy some glasses with your next big win.  I believe Chris Ferguson can surprise some of the players and get to a good position, but, one thing is for sure, there are many pros going there. Gus Hansen, Daniel Negreanu, Patrick Antonius, Allen Cunningham... this will not be easy for anyone! |

| Antonius is on the list, but never did anything in the last years there. Fergusson is a very good heads up player who will be one of the big favorites. Unfortunately the tourney is all about luckboxing in the first few rounds. |

Leeann Tweeden wow shes hot.
Still thats some line up they have got there,yeah thats gonna make good watching. Some big names going head to head...thats something you dont see that much any more, i mean the fields are so big now you dont normally see the pro's have it all there own way, so getting them all (some good ones) together will fire up the action.... and they all think there great heads up so should be great T.V. |
