The first season of Full Tilt Poker’s Doubles Poker Championship will air its finale Saturday night on GSN, with one of the remaining four teams taking home the $1 million grand prize.
The $50,000 buy-in event series began with 32 players being randomly put into 16 two-player teams. In the doubles format, players have to alternate who is in control after every step of the hand. They are only able to discuss the hand with their teammate if they call a 30-second timeout.
Teams were eliminated throughout the season, and now only four teams remain to compete in Saturday’s finals. They are:
Team | Starting Stack |
Allen Cunningham and Huck Seed | 600,000 |
David Benyamine and Tony G | 600,000 |
Howard Lederer and Phil Gordon | 400,000 |
Phil Ivey and Chris Ferguson | 400,000 |
The finals will air this Saturday at 9 p.m. ET on GSN. For more information visit. www.gsn.com.
