Filed in archive Poker on December 13, 2005

There's more players, more interest, more TV shows and that could only mean one thing. More money. Make that obscene amounts of money.

Fox Sports have done a 3-year deal that would provide winner-takes-all pots of $60 million - rising to $100 million in year 3.

Six of the best players in the world, including Phil Ivey, will face each other at crown Casino in Australia for a chance to win the pot. The tournament is due to take place on July 12.

Lets hope poker retains its popularity - or that could be a hell of an expensive deal
