The renowned and successful concept of shorthanded, fully broadcasted poker action (every hand gets shown), made NBC's TV format one of the most popular shows in the world. Season 7 was filmed last week and features Pot Limit Omaha for the first time in the serials history.

The word was spread through a blog entry, by CardRunners instructor Brian 'Stinger885' Hastings, in which he announced his participation as well as various details about lineup, minimum buyin and limits:
The reason I am flying to Vegas is that I am going to be on Poker After Dark! This will be my first televised poker appearance and I am very excited. ...

The game will be 300/600 PLO (maybe with an ante?), 100k min buyin, and the lineup includes Phil Ivey, Tom Dwan, Phil Galfond, and I think 2 of Patrik Antonius, Sam Farha, and Brandon Adams, although I am not 100% positive
Editors note: Currency for the mentioned amounts is USD

A release of the results will not be possible before the season airs, due to legal reasons. According to the blog, the timewindow is set "sometime in 2011."
We can't wait!
