The show — which was announced last April — will be hosted by Steve Schirripa, formerly of The Sopranos fame, who has been working more recently as an actor on ABC Familys The Secret Life of the American Teenager. I dont think you have to be a gambler to really enjoy this, because its part game show, part gambling, part entertainment. Youve got a little bit of everything here. Its even for the guy whos not a big gambler, said Schirripa. Some of the poker shows, as great as they are, you really have to know whats happening. Contestants qualified for the show online at Full Tilt Poker and come from a variety of backgrounds, from students to blue-collared workers to even people who couldnt secure a full-time job in these tough times. Phil Ivey may prove to be a problem for some contestants on Face the Ace on NBC.They will face some of the greatest players on the planet, including Phil Ivey, Patrik Antonius, Chris Ferguson, Mike Matusow, Gus Hansen, Howard Lederer, Allen Cunningham, Andy Bloch, Jennifer Harman, Erick Lindren, John Juanda, Huck Seed, Erik Seidel, Phil Gordon, and Gavin Smith. For each heads-up match a pro wins, $10000 will be donated to the charity of his or her choice.

Just a TV Show? lol, this is for real I made it to the 3rd round but didn’t make the top 10, This is the real deal, anyone in the world could of been on this show for real money, JUST A SHOW, Laugh at yourself than tell your mom you’re sorry she made you.
its just a tv show thats why they aren’t playin seriously
whats her full name
megan …?
I’d like a view of her back yard
the host’s mum is obviously a good cook too
come on, the pros feel bad for the contestant (you can clearly see that).
yes, all 280 millions of us are that size or bigger
Agree, the matches are so short, they should win whit ease
Americans are fat.
ure so stupid
wtf these pros aren’t playing seriously
its not very funn
I like the idea of the show but really its almost impossible to make it good for a poker player to watch. They need stacks small so the show wont drag 3 episodes long but it makes for some crappy poker playing.
right anyone can make mulitple FT’s in the wsop with one bracelt under his belt.
5 of diamonds makes him a flush beating his pair
Can’t beleive he thought so long with the A5 vs A9 hand..
Opponent probably has A5 or 55 so you got a coinflop or have him dominated. You just cant be an underdog when he shows that 5…
The lovely megan is the only good thing about this show…..
i dont like the host at all… he is obnoxious and rude…
how is the 5 of diamonds not an out?
they made a mistake 5 diamonds is not an out
Lindgren check-raises a draw and gets there. Stop the presses.
Well he’s facing the most overrated pro in history, so he’s got a decent chance.
Go to full tilt poker and win your way on. Good luck!
