Those looking for a little post-game analysis after this year’s World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event wraps up this coming Tuesday need look no further than Bernard Lee’s poker radio program, “The Bernard Lee Poker Show.”
The ESPN Inside Deal host and Poker News Daily contributor will be hosting a special two-hour edition of his long-running poker show dedicated solely to this year’s November Nine. The show, which airs regionally in New England on 1510 AM The Zone and online at RoundersRadio.com, will feature guest appearances from November Niners Steven Begleiter and Kevin Schaffel and promises several other surprise guests.
The WSOP wrap-up show will air on Wednesday from 7:00pm ET to 9:00pm ET, with the first hour featuring Lee’s interviews with Schaffel and Begleiter. The first portion of the show will broadcast on both terrestrial and web radio, while the latter half of the show can be found exclusively on Rounders’ Radio. During the second hour of the show, Lee will field questions from listeners submitted via phone, e-mail, or the show’s chat room. Lee has gained plenty of experience offering his insight into the world of poker thanks to his gig on Inside Deal where he and co-host Laura Lane discuss the latest hot topics in poker news. He also has plenty of experience with the respective members of the November Nine, as all members of both the 2008 and 2009 WSOP Main Event final tables have made an appearance on his radio program.
Rounders’ Radio’s Managing Director expressed his enthusiasm over the special program in an official statement announcing the upcoming show. “We are thrilled Bernard Lee will provide listeners of Rounders’ Radio with detailed poker coverage they can’t get anywhere else – an in-depth wrap-up of this year’s exciting World Series of Poker final table. Lee knows what poker players want to hear, and no one else can deliver the information in such a straightforward, easy to understand manner. We are very excited about the show.”
Typically “The Bernard Lee Poker Show” airs live on The Zone on Tuesdays from 7:00pm ET to 8:00pm ET and is replayed at 5:00pm ET on Saturday, but this special edition of the show will take place live on Wednesday after all of the WSOP action has come to a close. The final table resumes on Saturday, November 7th, when the nine players will play down to the final two, who will then get a day off before returning to the felt on Monday night to play down to a new World Champion. The following day, the final table coverage will air from 9:00pm ET to 11:00pm ET on ESPN.
Those who are unable to listen to the show live on Wednesday can catch the replay on 1510AM on Saturday, or listen to the full episode on the Rounders’ Radio website, which has an extensive archive of past “The Bernard Lee Poker Show” episodes.
