$25,000 Heads-Up Champion at Full Tilt Goes To David Singer
Despite rumors, the online poker game is still thriving. One could point towards the recent $25,000 buy in Heads-Up World Championship at Full Tilt which drew the bracket filling 64 players to face off for a $560,000 first prize. Almost half the field included favorite red letter Full Tilt pros such as two time NBC Heads-Up championship runner-up and defended champion Chris Ferguson and recent runner-up Andy Bloch.

Bloch, once again showed his heads-up chops as he made it down to the semifinals falling to Emil "whitelime" Patel. But, Full Tilt pro David Singer took the big cash defeating five opponents on his way to the over half-million dollar payday.

The full bracket is shown here.

Full Tilt's first-ever $25,000 Heads-up Championship, featuring the largest buy-in ever for an online heads-up tourney, saw a familiar name take the title on Sunday. Full Tilt pro David Singer claimed the title after defeating Emil "whitelime" Patel to win the the $560,000 first-place prize. Patel's runner-up showing was worth $320,000.

The semifinals and finals of the heads-up event were head on Sunday after four rounds of play on Saturday's Day 1 trimmed the starting field from 64 to four. Singer defeated Brain Hastings in one of Sunday's semifinals, while Patel held off recent NBC Heads-Up Poker Championship finalist Andy Bloch in the other. Hastings and Bloch

both received $168,000 for their showings.
