Million Pound Challenge
Emblaze Productions has once again joined forces with Full Tilt Poker to create a stunning and exciting new television series.
Airing on Sky Sports in February 2009, Million Pound Challenge will be a unique poker event in which 80 online qualifiers will descend on London for an epic showdown. The ensuing tournament champion will then play Heads Up against three high profile Full Tilt Poker Pros for a chance to win £1,000,000.
Million Pound Challenge will be filmed in London in September prior to the filming of season three of the Million Dollar Cash Game, an event also sponsored by Full Tilt Poker and produced by Emblaze Productions. Anyone wanting to participate will only be able to do so by registering online at FullTiltPoker.com.
“This will be the first show of its kind in the UK and must see TV for all poker enthusiasts. A spectacular event culminating in a £1,000,000 play-off, this will be TV drama at its very best,” said James Hopkins, Managing Director - Emblaze Productions Ltd.
