Next week's Poker After Dark match on NBC is sure to be a hit with both poker and golf fans, with a field of golfing players swapping stories and golf related banter throughout the show.

The players will face off for a $120,000 prize, with two newcomers, David Oppenheim and Gavin Smith, making their Poker After Dark debut in this episode, which is titled ‘The 19th Hole’.

The rest of the table is made up of Poker After Dark veterans, including Phil Ivey, Daniel Negreanu, Eric Lindgren, and Doyle Brunson. Lindgren has appeared on the show twice before, but has yet to win a title. Ivey, on the other hand, is hoping to become the first start to manage three title wins.

Oppenheim and Ivey are no stranger to golf related shows, having previously teamed up to take part in the first ESPN High Stakes Entertainment Golf Tour, where they took the $1 million prize.

The 19th hole tournament can be seen between January 7th and 12th, at 2.05AM Eastern (1.05AM Central), with a summary programme showing highlights of the tournament to air on Saturday night.
