World Series of Poker Main Event champion and Team PokerStars Pro Peter Eastgate is set to take on his 2008 opponent, and fellow team member, Ivan Demidov in a heads-up charity tournament held online at PokerStars.
The two first clashed last November during a 15 hour tournament , the longest Main Event heads-up match in WSOP history, over a prize of $9 million. Now, two days before the 2009 Main Event kicks off, the two will face-off against each other again, only this time it’ll be for charity.
