Introduction
The World Online casinos usa Tour is a collection of Usa hold ‘em online casinos usa tournaments held internationally, but mainly in the United States. The television show has led to a boom in the table game across American homes, in local casino online casinos usa rooms and online. The key sponsors of the tour are casinos and online online casinos usa sites. The show, which is syndicated internationally, is co-hosted by World Series of Online casinos usa winner Mike Sexton, and actor Vince Van Patten. Shana Hiatt served as the show host and sideline reporter in its first three seasons. Courtney Friel took over the host role for the fourth season, and Sabina Gadecki for the fifth. Layla Kayleigh began serving as hostess in season six.

Background
The tour had its debut season in the latter part of 2002 and early part of 2003, climaxing with the WPT Championship in April 2003 at the Bellagio Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada. The first season aired on the Travel Channel on American cable television in the spring of 2003. The show made its network debut on February 1, 2004 on NBC with a special “Battle Of Champions” tournament, which aired against CBS coverage of the Super Bowl XXXVIII pre-game show. The Travel Channel aired the first five seasons of the Tour. In April 2007, WPTE announced that the series would move to GSN for its sixth season in the spring of 2008.

The show’s hosts Mike Sexton and Vince Van Patten give the impression that all of their commentary is recorded live as the tournament happens, and they have occasionally interacted with the players during the game. However, their comments about hole cards are recorded after the tournament takes place because state gaming regulations prohibit them from observing a live feed of the “hole card cameras”. Consequently, the broadcast audio is a mix of the live recording, and commentary recorded in post-production.
Reception
- The drawing power of the WPT and most other online casinos usa tournaments is that anyone who can pay the “buy-in” (an amount ranging from $2,500 to $25,000) or win a “satellite” tournament is able to compete against the top professional players, such as Phil Hellmuth, Doyle Brunson, or the top 2004 tournament money and multi-WPT tournament winner, Daniel Negreanu.

Fans of the show find it interesting because of technical innovations such as the ability to see the players’ hole cards through a small camera in front of them on the online casinos usa table (an innovation first seen on the UK program Late Night Online casinos usa). With the success of the show, special programs, such as the “Hollywood Home Game” (featuring celebrities playing for charity) and “Ladies Night” (featuring six top women players) were developed.
In 2004, the World Online casinos usa Tour created a Walk of Fame, inducting online casinos usa legends Doyle Brunson and Gus Hansen as well as actor James Garner.

Sherman Act lawsuit
On July 19, 2006, seven online casinos usa professionals sued WPTE, alleging violations of the Sherman Antitrust Act, the California Cartwright Act, and intentional interference with contract (Complaint[2] and Response[3]). The professionals (Chris Ferguson, Andy Bloch, Annie Duke, Joe Hachem, Phil Gordon, Howard Lederer, and Greg Raymer) allege that WPTE’s standard release forms, required for participation in WPTE events, are anti-competitive and designed to interfere with their contractual obligations to other companies. The anti-competition claim is based on the fact that WPTE’s contracts with the casinos that host its tournaments bar those casinos (and other casinos owned by the same parent companies) from hosting non-WPTE online casinos usa events. The claim of interference with contract is based on the releases’ claim to perpetual rights to the players’ likenesses for any use WPTE wishes. The players claim that this would put them in violation of other contracts (such as Ferguson’s Activision Games contract or several players’ contracts with online online casinos usa sites).

+ A series of spin-off tournaments, titled the Professional Online casinos usa Tour, began filming in 2004. Broadcast of the series was delayed, in part because of a dispute with the Travel Channel over rights.
