Rafael Nadal is facing off against the whole world on PokerStars, and you can watch the action live.

The world number three has won 14 grand slam titles and became the only player to win the same Grand Slam tournament nine times with victory over Spaniard David Ferrer in the French Open final earlier in 2014.

But now the two-time Wimbledon champion is bringing his 'ace' to the world of poker and fans can interact with the Spanish tennis star as the one-hour session gets underway.

The event will act as a warm-up for Nadal, who is preparing to face Brazilian football star Ronaldo on November 6.

The World Cup winner said: "The last time we played together Rafa won and it was a lot of fun.

"This time it will be different, though, because I have been improving on my poker strategy and will be more prepared."

As Nadal bids to win, you can pose your questions on Twitter from 7pm, using the hashtag #askrafa.
