\"PokerTwo of poker\u2019s biggest names came face to face in a pre-recorded match on 31 July. This was part of the first episode of \u201cHigh Stakes Duel<\/em>\u201c<\/a>, Poker Central\u2019s newest heads-up show. <\/p>\n

Phil Hellmuth outclassed Antonio Esfandiari during the first round of the match, but the latter was quick to call for a rematch! <\/p>\n

This was an exciting game that the poker community was eager to see. They might get the opportunity to soon witness a proposed \u201cgrudge<\/em>\u201d match between long-time rivals Doug Polk and Daniel Negreanu<\/a>. <\/p>\n

There are still a number of exciting matches that the poker world would like to see. Here are few of them.<\/p>\n

#1 Phil Hellmuth vs. Daniel Negreanu<\/h3>\n\n

\"PhilWho wouldn\u2019t want to see two poker legends battling it out face to face at the poker table? <\/p>\n

Over the years, Hellmuth has created a name for himself both for his poker achievements, as well as his unique, tough persona while competing. Negreanu is a former All-Time Money List leader<\/a>, and is one of poker\u2019s most recognizable faces. <\/p>\n

A heads-up match between these two poker icons hasn\u2019t occurred yet. We bet you wouldn\u2019t blink when it finally happens! <\/p>\n

#2 Dan \u201cJungleman<\/em>\u201d Cates vs Tom Dwan<\/h3>\n

\"DanIn 2010, Tom Dwan began an online poker competition dubbed as the \u201cDurrrr Challenge<\/em>\u201c, which saw him take on fellow pro Patrik Antonious<\/strong>. <\/p>\n

He also invited Cates to the challenge, and both kicked off the battle in August 2010. <\/p>\n

However, the highly-publicized match came to an abrupt end for still unknown reasons. It will be intriguing to see the battle recommence after 10 long years! <\/p>\n

#3 Stephen Chidwick vs. Phil Ivey<\/h3>\n

\"StephenChidwick has made a name for himself in the high roller arena as the best of the best, winning multiple titles. <\/p>\n

Ivey is a poker legend and undoubtedly the best player during the height of the poker boom. <\/p>\n

Apart from being highly successful in their chosen careers, both Chidwick and Ivey also follow a quite similar approach when it comes to competing at the tables. Who is better? Well a massive heads-up match between them might answer that question. <\/p>\n

#4 Shaun Deeb vs. Daniel Negreanu <\/h3>\n

\"ShaunLike Polk, Deeb is also a long-time critic of Negreanu. Both have been involved in numerous word wars on social media<\/a> over the years. <\/p>\n

Deeb won the WSOP POY in 2018, while Negreanu captured the title twice in 2004 and 2013. <\/p>\n

It would be great to see them settle their long-standing feud once and for all via a heads-up match!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
