Full Tilt Poker Pros To Play High Stakes Poker at Million Dollar Cash Game
Full Tilt Poker just teamed up with Emblaze Productions, and they recently announced that they’re taking part in a three-year deal to produce Season 2 up to Season 4 of the European television series Million Dollar Cash Game. The TV show gathers together some of the world’s top poker professionals to play each other in a high stakes poker cash game, with a minimum buy-in of $100,000 and no max. The blind structure will start at $300-$600 with a $100 ante for each hand. It sounds quite small, compared to the minimum buy-in, but certainly these guys know how to heat things up, especially in No Limit Texas Hold’em.
On Season One of Million Dollar Cash Game, Full Tilt Poker pro Phil Ivey walked away the biggest winner of all the pros with hundreds of thousands of dollars changing hands. Phil Ivey is set to return for the second season of the series, which is going to be filmed over two days, September 18 and 19, at an exclusive venue in Soho, London. Sky Sports is scheduled to launch the broadcast in January 2008.
“We are delighted that Full Tilt Poker have continued to sponsor this unique high stakes cash game. With hundreds of thousands of dollars being staked over two days of filming, viewers will be in for a thrilling second series when the shows broadcast on Sky Sports early next year,” said James Hopkins, Founder and Managing Director of Emblaze Productions.
Poker fans from around the world can look forward to a colorful lineup, including names like 2005 Player of the Year Allen Cunningham, 2000 WSOP Main Event Champion and 5-time WSOP bracelet winner Chris “Jesus” Ferguson, 3-time WSOP bracelet winner John Juanda, 8-time WSOP bracelet winner Erik Seidel and 2-time WSOP bracelet winner Howard “the Professor” Lederer amongst others. All of the pros mentioned above are part of the Full Tilt Poker Team.
