The PokerStars Million Dollar Challenge has all you could possible want in a promotion: big names, big money, TV action. Now running at PokerStars, the qualifiers are there to make your dreams come true.
The PokerStars Million Dollar Challenge, where players will be fighting it out for a place on the new TV show and a million dollars, is open to all PokerStars players from the USA and Canada, and the qualifiers are currently underway.
In order to qualify for your place on the show you must make your way through the PokerStars Million Dollar Challenge qualifiers that run every single day at 8 pm and 11 pm ET. These qualifiers can be located through the Tourney>Regional tab of the Lobby. As this isn't like any normal tourney however, and could result in TV stardom, all players who finish in the top 10 of a qualifier will be requested to send in an audition movie. The PokerStars Team will pick from the audition movies who will go on to partake in the show which is being put together by Fox TV.
In addition to the great opportunities for you, should you get through to the show you are invited to bring 2 friends along with you to the Fox TV studio; not just that, but PokerStars will pay for their expenses as well as yours! The show will be a four part series in which the selected players will battle it out in heads-up tourneys against increasingly difficult opponents. You shan't be alone however; Daniel Negreanu will be on hand to help and coach the participant, that is until you have to play him! Should you succeed in knocking out your first three opponents you will then be pitched against the master to win a seat at the final table.
