Ultimate Blackjack Tour
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Ultimate Blackjack Tour is a televised series of blackjack tournaments airing on CBS. It debuted on September 16, 2006. The first season consists of ten televised Elimination Blackjack tournaments with a winner at the end of each episode. The winner of each weekly tournament will return for the final Tournament of Champions. Players compete for their share of over $1 million.
Along with professional blackjack players and Internet qualifiers, the producers have included a number of professional poker players not normally known for playing blackjack to draw on the upswing in popularity of tournament poker.
The show is hosted by Max Rubin and Mati Moralejo, with Nikki Ziering and Shandi Finnessey serving as sideline reporters.
Featured players of the Ultimate Blackjack Tour are members of Team UBT, which is made up of poker stars like Johnny Chan, Robert Williamson III, and Phil “The Unabomber” Laak as well as famous blackjack players including world champions Ken Einiger and Anthony Curtis, "Hollywood" Dave Stann and Monica Reeves.
