I was reading one of Daniel Negreanu's entries on his blog and discovered a new poker show will be broadcast. It is the Professional Poker Tour (PPT). It will go along with the World Poker Tour, however, the difference will be anyone can enter a World Poker Tour event whereas only a person who has established themselves in the poker community will be invited to join the PPT. The following is some of the requirements to be invited by the Professional Poker Tour committee:
To be eligible, players must have proven themselves by: winning or making a final table at a WPT event or a WPT Championship, scoring as a top 10 point leader in WPT Player-of-the-Year rankings, winning or placing highly in the $10K buy-in event at the World Series of Poker, securing a spot on either CardPlayer Magazine's Card Player of the Year Top 10 list or Poker Europa's Top 10, or being a member of the Poker Hall of Fame.
This is very cool. Viewers will now get to see only the top players play against each other. The random, lucky player won't be at a final table. Aspiring card players will now be able to see how the best play certain hands. I am extremely interested in this and can't wait to see when it is aired.
