Default Poker and other shows Monday 9/20 through Sun 9/26

Man, you people are getting spoiled!

USA television schedule results below are based on Eastern Daily Savings Time (EDT)- filtered from the TV Guide listings. Check your local provider to make sure you will actually get these at the times listed.
Shows may be followed by their Comcast channel (East Coast) and then the station letters.
"PDT??" means Yahoo listed this time as Pacific Daylight Savings time, but it's not always accurate. Just ??? means I adjusted from the PDT time.

I am marking the "new" poker shows with asterisks *** in front- I didn't have time to pretty things up this week (i'm tired!)

SPECIAL ESPN RERUN WARNING- Other than Tuesday night's original broadcast of the WSOP tournaments, all reruns posted are subject to change at ESPN's whim. Plan accordingly. Here is the current planned original run schedule: http://espn.go.com/eoe/wsop/schedule.html

WEEK'S HIGHLIGHTS- The Poker Superstars Invitational Tournament show has the first half of Tournament #2 branch, Round 1 on Sunday 9/19
ESPN shows a new tournament that occurred post-2004 WSOP- The Tournament of Champions. Additionally, on ESPN Classic, they start showing some of the old WSOP shows from the 90's (thanks, kevmath, for detailing this in your post) See the WSOP before there were lipstick cameras… or fabricated hands! Not to mention the antics....
Also, they are replaying the $10K championship shows in consecutive blocks between The Deuce and ESPN, starting Monday afternoon at 4:00.

The Ultimate Poker Challenge continues with their preliminary tournaments

Non-poker: Las Vegas (with James Caan) is back with their new season. [ Didn't have time for much else, sorry]

Default Re: Poker and other shows Monday 9/20 through Sun 9/26

Just a couple non-gambling show notes:

Las Vegas started their season last week (I forgot about it myself) and at 3:30 pm today on TLC, A Makeover Story: "Up the Ante" A poker player helps her friend, who's recovering from surgeries and four childbirths.

<font color="green">Las Vegas started their season last week (I forgot about it myself) </font>
Hmmm... I thought the TV ad I saw said it premiered this week... oh well.

<font color="green">and at 3:30 pm today on TLC, A Makeover Story: "Up the Ante" A poker player helps her friend, who's recovering from surgeries and four childbirths. </font>

I saw that, edited it out. I didn't get the impression that the poker reference meant much of anything. Now, if someone watches it and it's someone famous....

Default I had a feeling that she might be the one

why they didn't use her name, I don't know... uncertainty makes it more likely for us to watch?

I'd think that the TLC audience isn't exactly the same audience that watches poker. Although when I saw the description for the show, the first person I thought of was Annie.

Is it Annie who gets the makeover or her friend?
