What are PokerStars looking for in your audition movie?
Remember, this is a TV show, that means, they are looking for entertaining person. You don't have to be playing poker in your
movie, you already confirmed that you can play online poker. You have to be your self. Reveal your personality, enthusiasm,
humor, talent.. Make your audition interesting, eye catchy, unforgettable. There are several videos already posted on
YouTube. Check them out.
What is the PokerStars Million Dollar Challenge TV show?
Once selected, the contestants in the show will battle it out against three different challengers (one after another) in a
series of No Limit Texas Hold'em heads-up matches. These challengers will be made up of celebrities and Team PokerStars
Pros, and will become increasingly harder to beat. Each heads-up battle is a 'best of three' situation. Daniel Negreanu will
be on hand to coach and assist all the way through each of the first two stages (the contestant must win each stage against
a challenger to progress). However, if the contestant progresses to the 3rd round they will then play AGAINST Daniel - who
now becomes your adversary. This is the ultimate test of the pupil becoming the teacher - where they play for a seat at the
final table on the 5th and final show. The contestant must beat Daniel in a 'best of three' heads-up game of poker.
What else do I need to know about the show?
- You can play as many freerolls as you want.
- The audition movie must also contain the two poker buddies that you'd like to accompany you to the show.
- Be available to travel to the filming location on the following dates – Sept 30th/Dec 6th/ Dec 20th.
- Follow the action on October 11 and 18, November 22, December 13, with the grand final being shown on December 27. All at
4pm ET @ FOX Sports.
