Get ready to rumble with the first Full Tilt Poker Global Poker Challenge. On December 15th at the Palms Hotel in Las Vegas, the best poker players in America are scheduled to team up to take on the best poker players around the globe.
Partnering with UK producer Barry Hearn and Matchroom Sports, Full Tilt Poker will pull out all of the stops for this international tour de force of poker.
