Pro commentators, Greg 'The Axxeman' Winters and 'Dr.' Tom Sambrook take players late into the night with their analysis of live online tournament action.
"British poker is going crazy," says commentator Greg 'the Axxeman' Winters. "The poker boom is massive and television is the next step in this phenomenon. " Poker programming already attracts more than 1.3 million viewers a night - and pokerzone is set to be that audience's primary destination."
Jim Sibcy, Managing Director of pokerzone said, "Being a part of this launch is an exhilarating experience. The number of internationally renowned British poker players has rocketed over the last year and we are very lucky to be working with them all."
