It’s high season for poker down in Las Vegas right now, with the WSOP main event happening as we speak. But that’s not the only big Hold ‘Em news to come out of Sin City, as they’ve also just started filming a new poker game show scheduled to air starting August 1st.

The partnership between NBC and Full Tilt Poker will feature poker amateurs going head to head against some of the biggest pros in the game. In a series of seven one-hour episodes, contestants will battle one of three top players in heads-up, no-limit Hold ‘Em. If the contestant wins, they get a choice. They can either take their winnings and run….or they can take on another pro for a million dollar prize!
