Holy shit.. an $80 million dollar heads up game???
Beal and Brunson close to an $80 million poker game
By Barry Shulman, Card Player Chairman - 2005-03-25
Last fall I was at the center of, and tried to help facilitate, the biggest poker game in the world between Andy Beal, a wealthy Dallas amateur and a group of the best pros ever assembled, including Doyle Brunson.
For six weeks we went back and forth because both sides were hoping to skew things in their favor. All parties were disappointed that it just couldn't seem to come together.
Beal just phoned me and said he is ready to play on their terms. We are talking a match here where both sides put up $40,000,000 and play until one goes broke.
Full details will be available next week in Card Player and at CardPlayer.com.
