NBC Promotes Gambling
NBC have ordered seven episodes of a new television game show, that will allow contestants to take on poker pros for money. 
The way the game would work is contestants would play heads up against a poker pro in a tournament. If they win, they have the option of either keeping the money or playing against another pro for more money.
Steve Schirripa, who starred in The Sopranos, will be the host of the new show called Ace. It will begin on August 1st at 9:00 PM, but the prime time slot will not be its regular home. It is expected to move to Saturday afternoons in September.
If the player want to choose to play another pro, and lose, they will lose all of the money they have accumulated.
