Event 1: Dead Heat

$350 + $50 DS NL (2 re-entry)               

In the early stages of heads-up play, there has been a lot of 'call/check, let's see a flop' action.  On the rare occasion of a pre-flop raise, that usually takes the pot. 

Mike Dentale has managed to close the gap and is nearly even with David Heck in chips.  David still holds a slight lead, but the difference is less than half a million chips.

As a reminder, there are 18.175 million chips on the table.

Here's what's at stake:

1st pays $57,267
2nd pays $33,320

So technically, they're playing for $23,947...and the trophy.
