Poker Night in America launches social poker app

Poker Night in America is heating up the social poker market with its unique new Poker Night in America app, based on its hit TV show. Now social poker players can enjoy participating in the same poker action they watch on Poker Night as played by the game's best players and celebrities. The app will also feature amazing prizes that may include private poker lessons from famous pros, playing in live streamed poker games and a VIP grand prize package that guarantees players $5,000 in playing cash to play on Poker Night, so they too can live like a star and showcase their poker skills to the world.

"We have been asked time after time as to whether there will ever be any way to join in the action at our Poker Night tables," said Todd Anderson, President at Rush Street Productions, the company behind Poker Night. "Now we can finally say 'Yes!'"

The most thrilling opportunity for any poker player, and exclusively available on the Poker Night in America app, is that players will have a chance to enter sweepstakes where lucky winners may join some of the biggest names in poker at the table, such as pros Phil Hellmuth, Doug Polk and Shaun Deeb, and Hollywood star players like Jennifer Tilly and Brad Garrett. Winners will also be seen on TV and via live streaming on the official Poker Night Twitch Channel at Twitch TV. Some lucky winners will be flown to luxurious casinos around America to play in real episodes of the show. The grand prize not only includes a seat at the table, but also the flights, accommodations and a buy-in of $5,000. Eligible players who download the new Poker Night in America app and play at least five hands will be automatically entered into the sweepstakes.

Phil Hellmuth, 14-time WSOP bracelet winner, is excited to take on the new social players.

"Having taken pots from some of the world's best, I am looking forward to the new challenge of crushing players on social poker," said Hellmuth. "This Poker Night app is going to give me lots of new players from around the world to take down and clean out, so what's not to like? I'll see you at the tables."
