The delayed lottery game show Monopoly Millionaires’ Club will be coming to GSN. The Billy Gardell-hosted game will launch on GSN Tuesday, March 31st, at 8:00PM ET.

Each episode sees lucky lottery game winners sitting in the Las Vegas audience play games tied to the popular board game Monopoly. Games can be worth up to $100,000, with the money split between the selected player and his or her audience section 50/50. At the end of the show each contestant can elect to gamble his or her winnings on a trip around the infamous game board where landing on GO wins the contestant $1,000,000.
