After years of being broadcast on the Travel Network, the World Poker Tour will move over to the GSN (Game Show Network), where it will be shown every Monday at 9 pm after "High Stakes Poker".
The move is a good fit for both companies as GSN will look to leverage the popularity of "High Stakes Poker", and the World Poker Tour will look to find a slightly more accommodating home.
The announcers will remain the same (Mike Sexton and Vince Van Patten) but there will be a new hostess (the ultra-hot Layla Kayleigh).
This line-up of "High Stakes Poker" and the World Poker Tour will give poker fans a full three hours of entertainment on Monday nights, starting on March 24th.
Here is the full schedule for the 2008 season:
Mar 24 - Mirage Poker Showdown
Mar 31 - Bellagio Cup III (Part 1)
Apr 7 - Bellagio Cup III (Part 2)
