NEW NATIONAL HEADS UP POKER CHAMPION CROWNED
Ted Forrest takes the poker champ title and $500 000....
After a gruelling 63 matches spread over 3 days at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas, poker pro Ted Forrest has walked away with the $500 000 prize money and the championship title in the Second Annual National Heads Up Poker Championship
The championship was finally decided by a best two of three series between the two survivors who made it to the final - Ted Forrest and Chris "Jesus" Ferguson.
Both players started with 640 000 chips, playing until one emerged as clear winner - this year Ted Forrest. His opponent did not leave empty handed, however, taking home a healthy $250 000 runner up prize for the second year running.
The most famous names in the game played and were eliminated during the three day event, which will be broadcast on NBC as a ten hour package of poker that begins on April 16th and ends in late May. Last year NBC repeated broadcasts on their cable outlet CNBC as well, so there will be many opportunities to see the entirety of the tournament and the exciting action that took place between the top players in the game today.
