Full Tilt Poker will lend its brand to the Million Dollar Cash Game for at least three more years according to Emblaze Productions, who will produce the show. During last year’s Million Dollar Cash Game poker fans were treated to the largest ever pot on a televised poker show when Tom ‘durrrr’ Dwan bested Patrik Antonius in a pot worth $1.1 million!

Managing Director of Emblaze Productions, James Hopkins, had this to say about the new deal being reached, “We are delighted that Full Tilt Poker have continued their association with the Million Dollar Cash Game and we are expecting the strongest player line up yet for season 5.”

The Million Dollar Cash Game is an invitation-only poker game, similar to High Stakes Poker, where top poker players compete in a cash-game format. The show is going into its 5th Season, and will once be taped in London, England on September 8th and 9th.

Players committed to appear on the upcoming telecast include Full Tilt Poker pros Tom ‘durrrr’ Dwan, Phil Ivey, and Chris Ferguson, as well as UB Poker pro Phil Hellmuth who seems to appear on every poker telecast despite his poor track record in cash games.
