Brandon Cantu vs. Jon Aguiar $130k Grudge Match Tonight, Nov 7th
Aguiar beat Cantu heads-up for the $10k mix-max WSOPE bracelet in controversial fashion. Cantu challenged Aguiar to a match for the difference between 1st and 2nd, Jon accepted, and tonight they're playing at the Aria heads-up for $130k.
http://www.pokernews.com/news/2012/1...-jon-13723.htm $130,000 Grudge Match http://www.pokernews.com/files/cnt/50942d165ed90_.jpg Last month at the World Series of Poker Europe, Brandon Cantu claimed that the WSOP "robbed" him of a bracelet in the €10,000 Mixed Max event, in which he lost heads-up to Jon Aguiar after a controversial decision to delay the match two days. In case you missed it, Cantu unleashed his true feelings to PokerNews' Sarah Grant in an rant interview that circled through the community. Shortly after losing the heads-up match in Cannes, Cantu proposed that he and Aguiar play a heads-up grudge match for the money difference between first and second place — $130,000. Aguiar quickly accepted, and the match is now on for Wednesday, Nov. 7 at the Aria Poker Room in Las Vegas. There's certainly no love lost between the two, as evidenced by the nasty table banter during their match in Europe. Things didn't get any friendlier on Thursday when Aguiar posted a picture of his bracelet and some casino chips on Twitter, simply saying to Cantu, "come and get it." Aguiar said the match will be a "non-title fight," meaning the bracelet will not be up for grabs, but there will certainly be plenty of interested spectators at Aria when this one goes down. |

Think I'm rooting for them both to lose.
So whoever wins, I'll be sick. |
Re: Brandon Cantu vs. Jon Aguiar $130k Grudge Match Tonight, Nov 7th
it's too bad this is live. If I thought I had an edge on my opponent, I'd wanna get in the highest number of hands of possible as quick as possible before the match has to end. Go FatalError!

Re: Brandon Cantu vs. Jon Aguiar $130k Grudge Match Tonight, Nov 7th
5% * 130k = not bad for a few hrs work if someone has that edge
