PokerGO made two announcements the past week, both of which should excite poker viewers. The first concerned a brand new show coming to the direct-to-consumer OTT subscription video service, while the other is a renewed deal to bring premier tournaments to the mainstream masses.
High Stakes Duel
On Thursday, July 20 at 9 p.m. ET/6 p.m. PT, PokerGO will debut the first episode of “High Stakes Duel,” a show that will feature heads-up matches between some of poker’s biggest names. This is evidenced by the first match – Antonio “The Magician” Esfandiari versus Phil “The Poker Brat” Hellmuth – that will be played live at the PokerGO Studio at ARIA Resort & Casino in Las Vegas.
