As part of InterPoker.com's Extreme Poker series novice players and one professional battled it out 15,000-ft. off the ground. Losers of the game would have to parachute themselves out of an airplane.

The players are the winners of Extreme Poker's online tournaments to play Texas Hold 'em in weird settings. The first of the series was played underwater and the second was played on a polar ice cap in Finland.

Players Patrick Neary, 23, from Prince Edward Island, Canada, Jamie Glasser, 24, from Chicago and Fraser Linkleter, 28, from London and Nick "Stoxtrader" Grudzien, 29, from New York rode a Short's Skivan plane to try to win against Phil "the Unabomber" Laak.

Grudzien was the winner but opted for a free parachute jump anyway.
