Others : An Online Casino Takes One Step Further

Besides providing the online casinos players with the chance of gambling on reality TV shows like Survivor, Dancing with the Stars and The Amazing Race, the Bodog online casino is thinking of creating a reality show of its own. Because of the huge popularity of reality shows, the success of The World Series Poker was increased.

In the present, the WSOP has very big ratings whenever it is aired on ESPN. From certain perspectives, you could say that the WSOP has all it takes to be a reality show. All of the action is live and unscripted, not to mention the fact that you get to watch as all the drama unfolds in front of your eyes. The online casino is looking to build on the same winning format, with its very own TV show. The show will have about 40 participants, also counting 20 Bodog registered online casino poker players.

Every week, the participants, are going to have a chance to put their casino poker skills to the test for the chance of winning $50,000 and another chance to compete for a half million dollars on the show’s final round. The contest is scheduled at the Bodog online casino headquarters in Costa Rica. All in all, the so called casino gambling oriented show is going to comprise six 2 hour episodes.

The host of this show will be the founder and CEO of the online casino Calvin Ayre who not long ago declared at the show “Poker and television combined with Bodog-style entertainment are going to make a really successful TV show, and this will also be our next step into the world of reality TV”. Ayre added “We also have the important mission of finding the next poker star and are very eager to showcase the play hard aspects of the Bodog online casino lifestyle”.
