Card Player TV is Now Live
It’s been lights, camera, and lots of poker action in the Card Player corporate office now that the newest feature of CardPlayer.com, Card Player TV, has been launched.
The new page can be found at www.CardPlayer.com/tv, or by going to the main page and using the link listed under “multimedia.”
Card Player TV is a new interactive multimedia player that offers a variety of programming channels. These channels provide tons of timely feature content from the poker world, daily news programming, expanded coverage from the world’s largest poker events, strategy lessons, biographies of top poker professionals, up-to-the-minute online poker coverage, legislative news, and much more.
The hallways of the corporate office of Card Player have been busy the last few weeks in preparation for this launch. Players such as Huck Seed and Jon Friedberg, and poker-tell expert Joe Navarro have stopped by to film pieces for Card Player TV in our studio, and there’s no end to the line of players who will be stopping by for a stint in front of the hot lights and cameras.
Each day, new video content dealing with the busy poker news cycle will be uploaded. This is called the “Daily Deal.” Each week, online poker guru Shawn Patrick Green will talk about the hundreds of thousands of dollars available at online sites in the big guaranteed tournaments that take place each week (and the players who won).
Players not only will talk about strategy, but will also provide a glimpse into the high-stakes poker lifestyle. The biography videos enable players to explain to Card Player fans just what makes them tick. Some of the stories they share are as entertaining as anything that’s on reality TV right now.
Poker products also will be featured, and all of the videos are easily accessible through a TV-like interface that makes browsing them a breeze. Simply click a “channel,” and a list of videos appears on the right side of the page. Click a video, and it instantly comes up on the screen.
Viewers also can use the site’s easy search button to scour the entire archive of Card Player videos. If you’re looking for a video from last year’s World Series of Poker, just enter the search terms into the bar and, voila, the video will appear for your viewing pleasure.
Viewers also will be able to rate the videos or e-mail them to a friend, and through the Card Player user forum, poker fans everywhere can get together and talk about what’s going on in the poker world.
There are hundreds of hours of videos available to Card Player readers, and everything is free. So, dial it up, turn up the volume, and check out Card Player TV, which just may be the coolest thing ever.
