20 Feb 2006
For poker fans from around the world that have been suffering from a televised poker deficiency, the World Poker Tour has a cure. Season Four of the Tour makes its debut on the Travel Channel on Wednesday, March 8th. In what has been perhaps the greatest season of the WPT, over $100 million in prize pools have been divvyed up by some of the best poker players from around the world.
"Americans see in our shows the fulfillment of their own dreams," said Steve Lipscomb, CEO and Founder of WPT Enterprises, Inc. "Viewers watch for the sheer dramatic entertainment of the WPT, but they are also captivated by the promise of overnight riches that our players dangle before them. If a 21-year-old can do it, why can't they? It's a voyeuristic fantasy that viewers can indulge themselves in and for the first time in the history of televised sports entertainment, they can even try themselves at one of our WPT events."
2006 promises to be chock full of poker excitement when the World Poker Tour and the Professional Poker Tour return to the Travel Channel from 9-11 EST on March 8, 2006. For a look at the full schedule, be sure to visit the website of the World Poker Tour to learn more. When Season Four wraps up with the WPT Championship sometime in August of this year, new poker will still be on the Travel Channel in the same slot. After the WPT Championship, the Professional Poker Tour will begin its Season One run.Related News:
