Kevin Nealon has signed on to host a six-episode poker tournament series on GSN, the Game-Show Network, premiering on December 7th, 2004.
The No Limit Texas Hold'em event, "Poker Royale: The WPPA Championship", will be filmed at the Orleans Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas.
This actually might have some good poker, unlike Bravo's "Celebrity Poker Showdown". Players include Carlos Mortensen, Kathy Liebert, and Paul Wolfe. Now I just have to find out whether I get the "Game Show Network".
Blurb about the WPPA:
"World Poker Players Association (WPPA) is the only player's organization representing poker players worldwide. Founded in March 2004, the WPPA represents all levels of players from beginners to professionals and as of this month boasts 300 members worldwide. For further information on the WPPA or to join, log onto wppa.info."
