Celebrity Poker Showdown is an American celebrity game show that aired on the cable network Bravo from 2003 to 2006. It was a limited-run series in which celebrities played poker, with eight tournaments during its five-season run.
In each show, five celebrities played a no limit Texas hold 'em tournament for charity. The winners of each qualifying game won a silver commemorative poker chip and advanced to the championship game. The winner of the championship game won the grand prize for his or her charity as well as a gold commemorative poker chip. Each tournament featured 25 celebrities and consisted of six episodes, five qualifying games and one championship game.
In an interview with TV Guide, host Dave Foley said that a ninth tournament is not being produced, as Bravo did not order any new episodes.[2]
^"Currently Airing: Celebrity Poker Showdown". Picture This! television. Retrieved 2007-09-04. Picture This Television has produced five seasons of this original hit series... Although the series played eight tournaments between 2003 and 2006, the producers consider the program to have aired for "5 seasons." Note that one tournament consists of only six episodes, typically shorter than a series "season".
^Megan Walsh-Boyle (2007-04-25). "Thank God the Dave Foley Q&A Is Here!". TV Guide. Retrieved 2007-08-26. No, Bravo hasn't ordered any more of them. I'm assuming it isn't coming back.
