Big Clash between Pokerstars and FTP Pros

What started as Twitter confrontation has developed into an interesting clash between top international players on the teams of sister online poker sites, Pokerstars and Full Tilt Poker, over a tempting $300,000 prize pool as the pros face each other on three simultaneous freeze-out tables with the winning team taking the majority of the three games. Gus Hansen will lead the Full Tilt Poker team of Viktor Blom and Tom Dwan, who will face off against Pokerstars team leader Daniel Negreanu and his powerful team mates Isaac Haxton and Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier in a battleship-style heads up live action scheduled to take place on March 10 during the Pokerstars European Poker London tournament next week. The top players' competitive spirit will be encouraged by financial reward: each heads up winner will take $50,000 from his opponent, and each member of the pro team winning the overall competition will pick up $10,000-worth of tournament buy-ins, courtesy of the opposing team's poker room. The live online coverage through the FTP site will be provided for fans of these big-name players.
