Full Tilt Poker is now holding qualifiers to send players to compete with the pros on the new NBC TV series Poker After Dark. The only way of getting on the show, besides making friends with the producers and then still having to pony up $20,000, is through Full Tilt Poker and its Full Tilt Point (FTP) qualifiers that are now running.
The championship event takes place April 7 at 9:30 p.m. ET. Players can buy in directly to this event for 10,000 FTPs, but most will have qualified through a series of multi- and single-table tournaments. Entries to the qualifiers cost 100, 180, 360, and 600 FTPs.
Poker After Dark is a new series that recently premiered as part of NBC's "Up All Night" lineup. It's an hourlong show, hosted by Shana Hiatt, and is shown Monday through Saturday at 2:05 a.m. ET. Each week, the show features six players who put up $20,000 to battle for the $120,000 prize. Saturday's show airs things that went on behind the scenes, more interviews, and generally gives a different look at the participating players.
The players scheduled to compete are a who's who list of the big time poker world. Doyle Brunson, Gus Hansen, Phil Ivey, Chris Moneymaker, Annie Duke, Phil Laak, Ted Forrest, and many others are scheduled to appear on the new poker show.
Full Tilt's package is worth $25,000, which includes entry into the tournament and $5,000 for the trip and spending money. The show is sponsored by Full Tilt.
