Premier League Poker, the TV format which features 12 of the world’s best players playing in a unique league for a $1 million prize pool, will return this February.

The event, organised by Partypoker.com and Matchroom Sport takes place at 3 Mills Studio, London between 10-16 February and will be broadcast on Channel 4 in the UK in late March.

Each player will buy-in for $60,000, with PartyPoker.com adding $280,000 to make the pool $1 million, up from $500,000 last year. In a system developed to best showcase the prowess of each player, competitors will play six times in the preliminary stages.
