PokerStars has announced a new TV Show, that will debut in 2014. The Show is called "The Shark Cage," and satellites have already begun on the site.
The Shark Cage will have a total of eight heats, which are filmed at the PokerStars Caribbean Adventure, EPT Barcelona, the EPT Grand Final and EPT London.
Each heat will have five top pros and one online qualifier playing for a seat in the final with $1,000,000 on the table for the winner - no deals allowed and winner take all.
Players will be limited to 30 seconds to make a decision and if a player is bluffed out of a hand on the river, he is sent to the "Shark Cage," where he will have to sit out one orbit of action. Also, if a bluffer gets called down, the bluffer goes into the "Shark Cage" for that orbit and the caller gets bonus chips.
Sounds trashy and gimmicky.
