The notorious rivalry between the New York Yankees and the Boston Red Sox has a new home. Instead of fighting it out on the ball field, the two teams will settle their beef around the poker table in the "Partypoker.net Boston vs. New York Poker Challenge." Poker will be played as a team sport, with six Red Sox poker aficionados competing against six of their Yankee counterparts for nine episodes of Texas Hold'em.
The show will be aired on New York and Boston's regional sport networks, YES Network and NESN. Tapings are scheduled to begin next week at the Turning Point Resort & Casino located in the Syracuse area. Unfortunate for fans, however, neither audience members nor players can wear hats bearing the teams' logos, for reasons of copyright.
As to which players will appear on the show, the networks are still finalizing the rosters. Contenders aren't chosen based on their baseball star power, or even on their love for poker; network executives were quoted as saying that it’s also a matter of poker skills.
