The River (previous article) is hosted at the WinStar Casino on the Texas-Oklahoma border. There will be a $3 million tournament in August, and they're televising qualifiers now. It's syndicated to various channels, so you should search a programming guide for the time in your area. Note that The River may be called World Championship Poker on some channels. The show has already started airing in some areas. I haven't seen it yet, but it's reportedly very bad.
Next week's WPT event is part one of the World Poker Open, from Tunica, Mississippi. It's the second of two two-part shows this season. The first one was notably good. The players are Freddy Deeb, Hoyt Corkins, Men "The Master" Nguyen, John Spadavecchia, Brett Faustman, and Gabe Costner.

The River was AWFUL. Almost unwatchable. Very little actual poker play and when they weren't showing action at the table the guy that was interviewing Annie Duke and Greg Raymer was very amateurish.
At least Duke and, particularly, Raymer are interesting when they talk.
