The first ever live poker show is coming to the Venetian in Las Vegas. Some of the biggest names in poker will be competing in this show which is set to show six times a week.So paying poker pros to play poker? Why would they say no? The pro line-up includes Doyle Brunson, Daniel Negreanu, Phil Hellmuth, Eli Elezra, Antonio Esfandiari, Jennifer Harman, Phil Laak, Scotty Nguyen, Gavin Smith, and Todd Brunson. This is a surprisingly large lineup of big name pros.
The way the show works is each show two professionals will play with six amateurs from the audience in a tournament style NLHE game. Every other audience member plays along as the "9th player" on a handheld given to them prior to the show. The leader in points from the audience is then taken on stage to play with the last surviving amateur and the chip leading pro.
The whole concept of the show seems pretty cool and would be a great way to see some big name poker pros, and even have the chance to play with them.
