Poker After Dark...

So I was reading about a new poker show today, and it sounds pretty cool. It's called Poker After Dark and premiers on NBC on January 2nd.... at 2:05 AM!

Shana Hiatt is the hostess.

Every week, 6 players (big name pros) pony up $20,000 each and play a winner take all freezeout. The show is on every night M-F, and by the end of the Friday episode, one guy walks away with the $120,000. Then on Saturday night, after SNL, they have a "director's cut" of the show, where they review and analyze that week's game.

The show is very informal, with little to no annoying announcer stuff, and almost all table talk. The players can walk up to Shana any time they want and discuss how they are feeling, what's going through their heads and so on.

It sounds like it's got a lot of potential. I'm looking forward to it.

This seems really cool. I'd probably watch it for sure.

Someone remind me to set my Tivo for this in about a week. I seriously think this has the potential to be the best poker show on tv - even better than HSP, which is really the only one worth watching right now.
