Poker fans in Britain are preparing themselves for night of poker fun when the PartyPoker Premier League Poker final is broadcast on television.
To be aired on Channel 4 at 12:10 BST, the two-part final is the culmination of a league that began in May.
Phil Hellmuth, Vicky Coren, Juha Helppi, Ian Frazer, Liz Lieu and Eddy Scharf will all take their seats tonight.
A PartyPoker.com spokesman said: "We are very pleased with the response to Premier League Poker and have been inundated by enquiries from pros from all over the world.
"It has the winning combination of having bags of personality and world-class poker."
Vicky Coren, who has 200,000 chips, said the league is the most fun she's had in a room full of men since the summer of 1976.
The second half of the final will be aired on August 28th.
