Are there any poker TV shows now?

07.07.2015

After the Black Friday when American online poker came to its end, poker TV shows have disappeared from the screens. What’s the point in spending extra money if there are no potential gamblers who can play in poker rooms?

Place of High Stakes Poker and Poker After Dark has been taken by other TV programs, many of which regularly include online coverage.

It used to be this way earlier: advertisers such as PokerStars and Full Tilt Poker bought air time for their shows. They’ve taken for 60 minutes, paid a lot and it was worth it. In CIS many recognized poker from these shows and went to register to online poker rooms.

In America the situation was quite similar to that.

The online poker was banned in the USA and it became pointless to shoot new episodes.

Poker show haven’t gone anywhere, they just changed to nowadays conditions. Here are the most famous and interesting TV cash games of today:

  1. Poker Night in America
