2008-01-07 10:17:59

This week's Poker After Dark (Pad) episode, 19th Hole, will focus on players who enjoy playing golf, it has been reported.

Out of the six players, five appeared on ESPN's High Stakes Entertainment Golf Tour, according to Card Player, which says "viewers should prepare for entertaining tales from the golf course".

The line-up includes poker legend Doyle Brunson, as well as other notable players in Daniel Negreanu, Phil Ivey, David Oppenheim, Gavin Smith and Erick Lindgren.

Oppenheim and Smith will both be making their debuts on the show and will probably face a tough game, particularly from Ivey who is one of only three players to have won two Pad tournament.

Last week's Pad episode - and the first of the season - was won by Phil Hellmuth, who scored his first victory after numerous attempts.

He defeated Jennifer Harman in the heads-up, after battling five players with such good reputations that the show was dubbed Dream Table.
