After a successful, entertaining debut last month, Poker Night in America has announced a return of “King of the Hill,” the $50,000 buy-in winner-take-all heads up challenge streamed live on Twitch.

The second rendition of the uniquely-formatted event will take place on Oct. 6 and 7 at Rivers Casino in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

The Contenders

Phil Hellmuth returns for round two to defend the title and the belt which he won by besting Doug Polk in the single-match first round, and then taking two of three against Daniel “Jungleman” Cates to close it out.
