Bleznick has several other achievements. He is the first-ever Super High Roller Bowl: Pot-Limit Omaha (PLO) champion and has total live cash of $7,641,464. He has ample experience at poker, and it all showed at the High Stakes Duel 5, Round 2.

The High-Stakes Duel is one of the most exciting poker events. Poker industry heavyweights compete in heads-up play. Players start with a $50,000 buy-in. The stakes double in each round until one of them bows out. With Patrik facing defeat twice, it remains to be seen how he handles this case. The events are a study in poker greatness, with both players giving it their all and using all their skills in a game that literally has high stakes attached to it. It is also unique because it has only two players going through the paces, ensuring that the audience roots to only either one of the two, unlike the poker series that might have tens and hundreds of poker players ending up at various events within the series.
We will keep you posted about whatever happens regarding these two. With so many dollars already exchanging hands, it could be possible that both don’t take ‘no’ for an answer anymore. There are countless fans of both poker players, and they are eager to know who has the upper hand during these duels. After all, poker is all about those cards and about players who know when to hold them and when to fold them.
