Fascinating battle currently going on to decide who is King of the online poker game.
Bluff Magazine gave 20 of the world's top internet poker players a starting pot of just $200 and challenged them to see how much they could make from sit 'n' go and MTT tournaments in the month of March. If they lose it all - then they're out.

With just 13 days gone, SnoOowman - aka Brain Hawkins - has jumped to a big lead, increasing his bankroll to an astonishing $9,000-plus.

But my money is on the man in second place, the legendary Shaun "shaundeeb" Deeb who is up to $4,000 so far. I've played on the same table as the Deeb a couple of times on Pokerstars and he really is a skillful and frighteningly aggressive opponent.

Expect him to start raking in the big wins before too long... and be crowned Champ come April.
