Finally, after much legal wrangling and questions about whether the project would ever get off the ground, FSN’s MansionPoker.net Poker Dome Challenge will finally air this weekend. In what is surely one the most audacious (not to mention slightly ridiculous) ideas for televised poker, players will sit enclosed in a soundproof glass dome, into which a live audience in downtown Las Vegas will be able to see the cards as they’re dealt. Players will not be able to see the audience, thanks to the fact that the dome itself is a big one way mirror. Having cobbled together a long line of commentators and analysts, including pro Mike Gracz, FSN will show six players each week battling to make it through to the semi finals, followed by the grand final. The top prize is $1 million. The show goes out this Sunday (May 28th) on the Fox Sports Network. It’s worth watching just to see how exactly the whole thing will work in practice.
