Although similar in format, Face the Ace featured several lucky players who got to play a selection of poker pros for a $100,000 prize pool whereas the new PokerStars Million Dollar Challenge TV show sees online poker qualifying contestants battle through three different celebrity and Team PokerStars Pros in a best of three No Limit Texas Holdem heads up tournament to move forward to the grand final where one player will face Daniel Negreanu  for the massive cash prize.

Qualifying for PokerStars Million Dollar Challenge requires more than just top poker skills, players will need to tell PokerStars why they should be selected via a Big Brother style video audition.  To qualify you need to play in one of PokerStars Million Dollar Challenge daily freeroll tournaments and finish in the top ten.  All top ten finishers will then be required to submit a short video explaining why they should be chosen to take part in the new PokerStars Million Dollar Challenge TV show.  If you convince PokerStars that you have what it takes you will be playing for $1 million on TV!
