Heads Up Poker National Championship
National Heads-Up Poker Championship - Season II NBC Sports presents the ultimate big-stakes poker showdown, the National Heads-Up Poker Championship. In this invitation-only tournament, 64 players battle one-on-one for the title, 'World's Best 1-on-1 Poker Player,' at the Caesars Palace Las Vegas, the Home of Champions. The first one wasn’t exactly a meeting, but The Score, a network out of Toronto did a 15 minute interview that aired today at 6:00 EST. They showed up at the house at around 10:30am and at 12:30am I had a meeting with some of the Wynn people. We discussed the poker room, my role, and some other exciting news that will be announced shortly.
Earlier this week, rumors surfaced that the NBC National Heads-Up Championship would not take place in 2014, and earlier today Mori Eskandani of Poker PROductions confirmed the news to PokerNews.
'NHPC will not be on calendar this year,' Eskandani said. 'But I have good reason to believe that the future of the series will be bright.'
Thanks to its 64-player bracket format, the NBC National Heads-Up Poker Championship has proven a hit on both TV and among poker fans. After a one-year hiatus in 2012 — a consequence of Black Friday — the NBC National Heads-Up Poker Championship returned in 2013. The $20,000 buy-in event ran from Jan. 24-26, 2013 at Caesars Palace, the same venue where the event was held from 2005 through 2011.
