WPT Enterprises creates and produces the World Poker Tour (WPT)®, airing Wednesday nights at 9pm on Travel Channel. WPT consists of 17 high stakes poker tournaments filmed at glamorous locations throughout the world, including Bellagio in Las Vegas, Foxwoods Resort Casino in Mashantucket, CT, Aviation Club de France in Paris and the Borgata in Atlantic City. Each year the Tour culminates in the WPT World Championship in Las Vegas at Bellagio in April, drawing the leading pros and accomplished amateurs from around the world for an $8-12 million prize pool. The WPT can be seen in more than 116 countries and territories throughout the world. Building on the success of its first season, WPT expanded its roster from 15 episodes in Season One to 21 episodes, including specials, in Season Two. Among them was the ratings success special WPT Ladies' Night, now an annual favorite. The WPT also added a series of other specials, including WPT: Hollywood Home Game, which brings celebrities center stage at the WPT Final Table where they battle to win money for their charities and for a coveted seat in the WPT World Championship. In Season Three, two new specials were added: Young Guns and Poker By The Book, featuring top poker authors. Another fan favorite is the WPT Invitational, which annually pairs 50 celebrities and 200 top professionals. In 2004, WPTE introduced a second tour — the PROFFESIONAL POKER TOUR® (PPT)® which showcases poker's All-Stars, the top 200 poker pros, in currently five tournaments annually. Currently, new show concepts are being developed and viewers can expect to see more from this creative and fertile production company. |
