In Argentina, a new agreement will see The Poker Channel serving as the only all-poker network broadcast in the country. It will offer six hours of daily programming including international tournaments, interviews with top players, training shows and coverage of major tournaments such as the World Series Of Poker to an estimated audience of one million subscribers. For South Africa, the network will be telecast via digital satellite to nearly two million subscribers from June 7. Initial programming is set to include coverage of European and American poker tournaments for the first time. “This is our first step into Latin America and Africa and a huge milestone for us and our partners,” said Chris White, Managing Director for The Poker Channel. “It shows the desire to play and watch poker continues to grow around the world. We’re working with the best local television companies and poker rooms in the region to televise top tournaments, help viewers improve their game and choose where to play.” Launched in the UK in 2005, The Poker Channel�is primarily an English-speaking televisions network that broadcasts to almost 20 million cable and satellite homes in 20 European countries.
