It was probably only a matter of time until reality TV entered the realm of poker.
PokerRoom has created a promotion called “Poker Island,” which has a top prize of a $100,000 sponsorship package.
The show, which will be web cast at bwin.com and TV.PokerNews.com, will take place in Ibiza, Spain in what the site is calling a ‘Poker Villa’. The contestants will take part in poker and other challenges during the show.
According to pokernews.com:
The Poker Island promo will begin on Monday, July 7th and will run for a maximum of four months. Players will record daily TV diaries sharing their highs and lows which will be broadcast to millions across Apart from having the time of their lives indulging in the indoor and outdoor activities, each week players will also take part in weekly challenges resulting in two participants leaving the Villa and two others taking their place. The winners of each weekly challenge (14 in total) will go into the ‘Big Final’ to battle it out for a massive $100,000 sponsorship deal.
The players will be determined through a series of freerolls at PokerRoom.
