PokerStars Million Dollar Challenge

Play on national TV for $1,000,000!

The Million Dollar Challenge is the exclusive promotion that gives you the chance to play poker on TV for up to $1,000,000 against poker legend and Team PokerStars Pro Daniel Negreanu. It’s back for Season 2,  and you can enter for free with PokerStars.net now!

All you have to do is play any of the Million Dollar Challenge daily freerolls - running four times per day until July 18 - and finish in the top 20. Make it through and you’ll be asked to submit a short video, telling us why you think PokerStars should send you to star in poker’s most exciting show. Impress us and you could be heading off to Los Angeles to play in front of the cameras for life-changing money. You can even bring along two poker buddies to cheer you on!

You’ll then get to play in a series of heads-up poker matches on TV against Team PokerStars Pros and other celebrity poker players. You’ll have Daniel Negreanu on hand to give you expert coaching and help you advance while collecting up to $25,000 along the way. Then it's time to make a decision. Should you take the money and run, or play against Daniel for the chance to win a guaranteed $100,000? Beat Daniel and you’ll then get a shot at playing for the $1,000,000 first prize.

It’s a true test of poker skill and the chance of a lifetime. Mike Kosowski won the $1,000,000 first prize in Season 1 and now you can be the next big winner. Poker doesn’t get much bigger than this, and it’s all free to play.
