PokerStars announced the other day that its very popular SuperStar Showdown is about to return!

Isaac "Philivey2694" Haxton must be convinced it is possible to repeat the win against Izildur1, but if I was him I would never again play against him: winning one time is a one time opportunity, a story to tell the grandsons, going for it the second time is crazy. If he wins again, that way he will be taking a big up in the poker ladder, but if he loses, no one will want to hear about him again.

I really missed lately the superstar showdown series of pokerstars but frankly i would like more to see 2 tables of PLO and 2 tables of NLHE as in the match with Rui Cao
Still, i'm sure this will be a really great game since Isaac is a really good NLHE player.
