ESPN is already airing more poker than ever before on television.
Now, the network plans to supplement its coverage of the 2009 World Series of Poker with a Web-only weekly poker show called “ESPN Inside Deal,” presented by PokerStars.net, the network has announced.
The show will debut Tuesday on ESPN.com with special guest Chris Moneymaker, who won the 2003 World Series of Poker Main Event. Poker pro and ESPN.com columnist Bernard Lee, ESPN.com poker editor Andrew Feldman and ESPN magazine’s Laura Lee will host the show.
The show will air over three months, leading up to ESPN’s coverage of the 2009 World Series of Poker Main Event final table in November.
All nine members of the final table will be featured as guests on the show as will many notable poker professionals, the network said.
