Land and online casinos poker professionals will all compete on national television to become the next NBC National Heads-Up Champion. The event is gearing up by listing some of the professional players that viewers can anticipate will show up for the popular land tournament event. The Heads-Up tourney attracts players from all over the globe to participate and the televised event has well-known for generating the most viewers and television interest in a poker tournament since the televised World Series of Poker event.

This year the Heads-Up tourney, which is now in its fourth year, has announced a new system for culling out the participants in the event – a new automatic invitation list that the event organizers anticipate will be used as the basis for participation in the event for the coming years. The list does not include the online casinos players and others who may win a seat at the event through online qualifiers.

Instead the automatic invitation list includes past land and online casinos poker professionals who have one either the Heads-Up Championship or specific other events. All of the previous Heads-Up winners are invited back to compete in the event, as are runners up and semifinalists. Add to that the champions and defending champions for both the Vegas and European World Series of Poker, and the invitation list already includes some of the biggest names in the land and online casinos poker gambling industry. Additionally, the “Players of the Year” at top poker industry magazines are also invited to compete in the event.
