ESPN AND THE 2004 WORLD SERIES OF POKER EXPANDED COVERAGE OF NATION'S TOP POKER EVENT; 22 EPISODES STARTING JULY 6 In the second year of a multi-year contract with Harrah's Hotel and Casino, ESPN will present an expanded schedule of the nation's premier poker event, the 2004 World Series of Poker. Beginning July 6 at 9 p.m. ET, ESPN will air two new one-hour episodes back-to-back on Tuesdays throughout the summer (9 -11 p.m.) for a total of 22 hours of coverage.
Produced under the ESPN Original Entertainment (EOE) banner, ESPN will more than triple its coverage of the event from a year ago. ESPN's telecasts will capture the breadth of the 33-day event with the first 13 episodes dedicated to coverage of satellite tournaments that feature a variety of poker disciplines. Highlights include the finals of six tournaments, including Seven-Card Stud, Pot Limit Omaha and No Limit Hold 'Em, and the world championship of seven events, including Ladies No Limit Hold 'Em, Pot Limit Hold 'Em and Razz. The last nine episodes will focus on the tournament's main event, the Final Table of the popular No Limit Texas Hold 'Em that will culminate with the winner being named World Champion and claiming an estimated $4 million purse. Commentators Norman Chad and Lon McEachern will return to call the action and provide complete analysis of the players and games.
