By Christopher Hunt

The Binion's Casino poker room has seen a lot of classic card play over the years, and The Ultimate Poker Challenge plans on adding a lot more to the list. Organizers have added an all-female tournament, the Ultimate Women's Poker Challenge, to their line-up for next year.

Now in its third season, The Ultimate Poker Challenge films live from the legendary Binion's Casino in Las Vegas, airing final tables each week with added commentary from poker pro Chad Brown and a revolving cast of guest poker celebrities.

Open to both amateurs and pros, The Women's Ultimate Poker Challenge starts Feb. 9, with the televised final table scheduled to follow on the 10th. The direct buy-in is $235, and Binion's Casino will also be running satellite single table tournaments starting Feb. 8 for a chance to play your way in.
