Some of the world’s top poker players have signed on to the newly created World Team Poker, a league in which International teams will compete in an Olympics-style format. Among the announced captains of their five-player teams are Phil Hellmuth, Johnny Chan, Mark Seif, Freddy Deeb, Men “The Master” Nguyen, Jeff Lisandro, and Eli Elezra. The competitions will be taped for broadcast on pay-per-view, the internet, and network television.  This is a new concept that will rock the poker world.
