Phil Hellmuth Partners With Poker Central

Poker Central, soon to be the world’s only 24/7 poker TV network, announced last week that 13-time World Series of Poker bracelet winner Phil Hellmuth is a new Poker Central partner.

Hellmuth is the latest poker pro to commit to the upcoming 24/7 poker TV network. Antonio Esfandiari and Daniel Negreanu both partnered with the Las Vegas company earlier this year.

“Phil is an exciting addition to our Poker Central team,” said Clint Stinchcomb, chief executive officer of Poker Central. “No poker endeavor would be complete without him.”

“I’m glad to play an integral role in creating Poker Central,” Hellmuth said in a statement. “It’s exciting to create a poker TV network that will launch worldwide from day one.”

In the works for more than a year, Poker Central is expected to launch on Oct. 1.

Poker Central is currently gearing up for its 2015 Super High Roller Bowl which will take place this summer at the Aria Resort & Casino. The $500,000 buy-in tournament will run July 2-4 and will feature some of the greatest players to ever compete on the felt such as Negreanu, Phil Ivey, Erik Seidel, Joseph Cheong, Hellmuth, Phil Ivey, Scott Seiver, Tom Dwan and last year’s WSOP $1 million buy-in “One Drop” winner Dan Colman.

The Super High Roller Bowl is a completely open event, meaning anyone with the $500,000 buy-in can participate. There are no tournament fees, meaning players keep 100 percent of the prize money. Additionally, the network plans on making the tournament an annual event.

They will be competing for an estimated $25 million prize pool, assuming at least 50 entrants.

The Super High Roller Bowl will begin airing on the NBC Sports Network on Aug. 28 at 8 p.m. EST. For a full look at the TV schedule for the $500,000 buy-in tournament, click here.
