September 10, 2006 - The Ultimate Blackjack Tour is coming to CBS television next week and the popular casino game is expected to make a solid showing on the big stage.
The "Ultimate Blackjack Tour" makes its initial debut next Saturday on CBS, matching top players from both the blackjack and poker worlds in "Elimination Blackjack" tournaments.
The Elimination style tournament is similar to poker in that players are systematically taken away from the tables until a winner is determined in heads-up action. Secret bets add an element of bluffing, and similar to the poker shows, the TV audience can see the dealer's hole cards.
ESPN was the original bidder for the show, but due to undisclosed reasons decided to drop out of the bidding and CBS television was able to nab the spot. For more information, go to the CBS website.
