One of the most popular televised poker tournaments watched by sports fans is back for a second time around.

The second annual PartyPoker.com Sports Stars Challenge takes place at the Poker Den in London, from the 6-9 February 2007.

Sports stars, both past and present, will take their seats in the hope of being crowned the ultimate sporting poker champion.

Last year’s winner was the outspoken former England rugby union star Austin Healey and he is back to defend his title, hoping that his aggressive style of play will give him his own grand slam.
