PokerGO and PokerStars announced on July 28, 2025, the long-awaited return of the National Heads-Up Poker Championship, presented by PokerStars, marking the tournament's first edition in over a decade. The event is scheduled to return in 2025 with a $25,000 buy-in.
Known for its single-elimination, bracket-style format and featuring blockbuster personalities, the championship will premiere exclusively on Peacock in the fall of 2025, before becoming available to stream on PokerGO and PokerStars. Confirmed players include Michael Mizrachi, Jason Koon, Liv Boeree, and Chris Moneymaker.
This revival is expected to reignite interest in poker and enhance the visibility of the PokerStars brand, which is ultimately owned by Flutter Entertainment. The event aims to attract both poker enthusiasts and a broader audience through its mix of celebrities and top professionals.
