Poker on TV
Wagering Channel / Vices Channel / Bullz-Eye Home
The latest poker sensation involves poker tournaments on TV. The big one is the World Series of Poker, which for years has been gaining popularity on ESPN. In fact, poker is now one of the top five-rated programs on ESPN. Now other networks are starting to sponsor poker tournaments made for television.
ESPN took the poker craze a step further with "Tilt," the one-season dramatic series from the writers of "Rounders" based on the game of poker. Gotta love it. (For more on "Tilt," click here.)
Celebrity Poker Showdown
The upcoming season of Bravo's reality poker tournament pits a new group of B-list celebrities against one another at the table, and joining comedian Dave Foley at the commentator table this year will be world-renowned poker brat Phil Hellmuth.
