A news team from the UK Pokerzone television channel will be in Las
Vegas to record the final events leading to the main game at the World
Series of Poker, where one of the 9 final table players is likely
to walk away with over $10 million - the richest sports prize in the
world - as the 2006 poker champion.
The channel will be broadcasting a week long series of location reports
leading into the final table.
Sam Orams, Creative Director at Pokerzone said “Last year
we were the only TV crew producing nightly reports for the British
fans. We can’t wait to get back out there and continue our committed
coverage of the most exciting event on earth. Where else can you see
one man win millions on the strength of two cards?”
In the week leading up to the final table pokerzone will be the destination
for poker players to find out what’s going on in Vegas. With
exclusive interviews from some of the biggest players on earth; including
Phil Ivey, Joe Hachem and Johnny Chan to name but a few, the channel
will be offering the top coverage available on British television
screens.
Brit pokerheads can read and watch all the latest news from the tournament
on Pokerzone’s website or watch a new episode every night from
the 4th to the 10th of August on Pokerzone SKY 843 from 10.50pm, with
repeats throughout the following day.
