The Poker Nations Cup is an international poker tournament, televised on Channel 4 from March 2006 onwards. The series is commentated by Jesse May and Barny Boatman. Padraig Parkinson covered for Boatman in preliminary match 2. The series was filmed in Cardiff, Wales. Thomas Kremser was the tournament director, and the dealers were Marina Kremser and Stevie. The event in 2006 was sponsored by 888.com. In 2007 888.com has been replaced by Partypoker as main sponsors. The event will also be televised on Channel 4. ==Format== Six nations compete in the series, with six members to each team. Each team has a captain and an internet qualifier. The captain chooses one player from the six available to compete in each of the six preliminary tournaments (each player on the team plays once, and once only.) Points are awarded for the finishing position of each player in each preliminary event. These points are totalled and used to calculate chips in the Grand Final. Points are awarded as follows: *1st: 10 points *2nd: 7 points *3rd: 5 points *4th: 3 points *5th: 2 points *6th: 1 point Team captains can choose to substitute team members during the Grand Final, where the winning team receives $100,000. (NB: As members of a nation's team never face other members of the same team, there is no possibility of collusion, as is possible in other team-format poker tournaments.) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Poker Nations Cup」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
