Million Dollar Cash Game

The first Episode of Full Tilt Poker’s ‘million dollar cash game’ was broadcast on sky 2 last night (in the UK) 11 players all buy in with $100,000 and 2 of them (Phil IVey and Chris Ferguson?) buy in for $200k. Players can also rebuy in at any time.

Unlike the ‘High Stakes Poker’ TV series in the US this series focuses much more on poker and the strategies taken by each player rather than the drama of the poker table. Even though each player ‘only’ brings $100k to the table we have been promised some pots reaching up to $750,000!

Players include: Phil Ivey, Chris Ferguson, Jennifer Harman, Howard Lederer, Allen Cunningham, Gus Hansen, Erik Seidel, Erick Lindgren, and John Juanda along with Roland de Wolfe, Patrik Antonius, Marc Goodwin, and Tony G.

The dates for the next episodes are as follows
