EPT Season 3 on Challenge TV
May 25th, 2007 | Published in Tournaments
For the next seven weekends, Challenge TV (the UK satellite/cable channel) will be showing highlights of each of the rounds of the third season of the European Poker Tour.
Each week there are three shows. One each on a Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
It all kicks off at 11pm tonight (Friday 25th May) with the Barcelona event.
Disappointingly, the production company has decided to persist with presenter Colin Murray for the third season, but at least we get to hear EPT boss John Duthie regularly exposing Murray’s complete lack of poker knowledge with the odd well-timed, withering comment.
I often bemoan the lack of top quality play on British TV (well, not on this blog – not in the last year anyway) so it’ll be good to see some top class European players up close. With three hours of coverage per event we should get to see more than just the final table too.
Full schedule is listed here.
Update: An hour after I published this post, I got an email from PokerStars giving more info. It mentions expert analysis from Greg Raymer, John Duthie and Lee Jones – and there’s no mention of Colin Murray. Okay, I won’t get my hopes up just yet.
