Poker: First TV show (broadcast, cable, syndicated, or online) that hosts free...

...No-Limit Texas Hold’em weekend brick-n-mortar poker tournaments in each US state (one per week) and then a free national tournament with just those players who make the final 10-person table of the state tournaments.  While free to participants to enter, these tournaments do enforce a dress code requiring men to wear tuxedos and women to wear evening gowns to have it be the classiest of all poker tournament circuits.  Weekend state tournaments will start Friday evening and end on Sunday night.  Only legal residents of that state are allowed to enter the state’s tournament and players are only allowed to enter one state tournament a year.  Cash prizes will be awarded for state tournaments and for the national tournament.  All of those players who make a state tournament’s final table are flown to the national tournament, are put up in a hotel, and are fed for free.  The better a player finishes at the final table at a state tournament, the more poker chips he starts with at the national tournament.  The final table of each state tournament is shown in a weekly two-hour program, with the national tournament held during the daytime Monday-Friday and then a two-hour summary shown at the end of each day, during prime-time.  After taking Saturday off as a break, the national tournament’s final table is televised live on Sunday from beginning to end during the daytime and, if need be, into the night.
