NAPT Live Streaming and return of The Big Game

The North American Poker Tour is back after a 12-year hiatus this November – and you can stream the final three days of live action from Las Vegas on PokerStars Twitch and Youtube channels.

The stream gets underway on Friday, November 10 with the penultimate day (Day 3) of the $1,650 NAPT Main Event, as the field plays down to the final table. The final table will be broadcast the following day on Saturday, November 11, with the final table of the $5,000 High Roller broadcast on Sunday, November 12.

The PokerStars Commentary Team of James Hartigan, Joe Stapleton, Maria Ho, Griffin Benger and Nick Walsh will be on hand to guide you through proceedings, and there will also be a Brazilian-Portuguese stream anchored by our Brazilian commentators Felipe de Paulo and Flavio del Valle on twitch.tv/pokerstarsbrasil and youtube.com/pokerstarsbrasil.

It’s three days of poker you simply cannot miss, but that’s not all we’ve got coming your way…

After running for two seasons in 2010 and 2011, The Big Game is also making an exciting return to our screens.

The unique cash game format saw a qualifier (the Loose Cannon) bankrolled to play in a high-stakes cash game against some of the best players in the world. Each session lasted 150 hands, and if the Loose Cannon survived, they were allowed to keep any profit they made in the game.

Some of the best known and most viewed hands of all time happened on The Big Game, and it’s back with a modern 2023 twist.

“The Big Game was one of the most beloved poker programs of all-time,” said VP of PokerStars North America, Steve Preiss. “As we continue our focus on creating the best poker content, re-imagining and re-launching The Big Game was a no-brainer.

The Big Game on Tour will bring a level of play that hardcore fans expect from poker content. But we also will capture the journey from start to finish of our Loose Cannons in a way that hopefully reaches new audiences as well.”

The line-ups for The Big Game on Tour are to be confirmed, but there will be two $100/$200 No-Limit Hold’em cash games tables on Wednesday, November 8 and Thursday, November 9 with some familiar faces along with some of the biggest poker crushers of today.

The game will then be produced into a series of 10 episodes to air in 2024.
