A Quick View on PokerStars' Million Dollar Challenge

The plot of the series is simple enough where qualifiers to the poker series get to receive coaching lessons from Daniel Negreanu as the qualifier battles it out with some of the top poker players of Team PokerStars, some of which are Chris Moneymaker and Greg Raymer.  Those who have qualified to get into the final event will attempt to beat his poker coach, Negreanu himself, the only pro poker player who is going to stand between the qualifier and the million dollars.

This poker show is said to air this coming October 11, 2009 on Fox with a tentative timeslot of 4 p.m., but this schedule is still very much tentative because of Fox's coverage of the regional NFL, which will begin airing on the end of September. [Read][more][...]
