The MANSIONPoker 💶 Poker Dome Challenge was a 43-week series of speed poker tournaments offering a grand prize of US$1,000,000. The tournament aired 💶 in the United States on Fox Sports Network from May 2006 to March 2007. The tournament featured a number of 💶 technological gimmicks in an effort to increase viewer interest and excitement.

Matt Savage was the tournament director.
The series consisted of single table tournaments of six players each. 💶 Five of the six competitors qualified through daily freeroll tournaments held at mansionpoker.

Players started with 50,000 in tournament chips and play continued until one 💶 player had all 300,000. The tournament was single-elimination and only the winner of each table received prize money. Players had 💶 just 15 seconds to act on a hand before it was ruled dead. Each player was given one 30-second time 💶 extension that could be used at any time. When the table got to heads-up, each player received another 30-second time 💶 extension (although if a player hadn't previously used the extension he or she did not then have two). Betting was 💶 pot-limit pre-flop and no-limit post-flop until heads-up play, when it became all no-limit.
