NBC Poker in Deal with Caesars

The NBC National Heads-Up Poker Championship has been a popular show with the poker fans, and in recent developments has secured a home for the next four years. The Caesars Palace will be the location for the next four championships, as it has been for the last three. The first year of the NBC show was filmed at the Golden Nugget in 2005. Now that Caesars Palace has signed off on the contract extension, the Heads-Up play will continue at the Palace through 2012, where poker pros pay $20k to play in the invitation only event, open to only 64 players.
