$20,000 Heads-up Championship Day 2 | 2009 NBC National Heads-Up Poker Championship

We're back on the set of the 2009 NBC National Heads-Up Championships here inside the Caesars Palace Poker Room in Las Vegas, NV, getting set to catch the action from the Round of 32, which is scheduled to begin at approximately 1:00 p.m. local time. First up will be the 16 remaining players from the 'red' half of the bracket -- Hearts and Diamonds.

An impressive streak shared by two guys, Huck Seed and Scott Fischman, will be on the line this afternoon. Both Seed and Fischman have cashed in this tournament every year since the tournament's inception in 2005. To secure a fifth cash, Fischman will have to find a way past David Williams in the Hearts Bracket, while Seed will face the always-aggressive Gus Hansen in the Diamonds Bracket.

Here's a look at the eight matches set to get us off and running this afternoon:
