The Pro/Am Poker Equalizer features 24 pros and 12 celebrities competing in six-handed freezeouts for a share of a $750,000 prize pool. It's called the "Equalizer" because the celebrities will begin each table with 50 percent more chips than the pros.

Great, now I won't be able to watch it unless TSN decides to pick it up.

Given that this series is a "time buy", Full Tilt will have to pay either TSN or The Score in order to get the series to air in Canada. That decision will be left up to Full Tilt.
