Poker Central Confirms New Show Called PrimeTime Poker Report with Donnie Peters
Poker Central, billed as the only 24/7 exclusive poker channel launched towards the end of 2015 but got off to a rough start as viewers found it hard to access the channel and those who did complained about the quality of content. Viewers of the Poker Central network felt that most of the shows being televised were old shows and that the network did not have enough shows that were unique to the Poker Central brand.
The Poker Central team were receptive of the feedback and promised to address the needs of the viewers by introducing fresh and newly produced content in 2016. The network recently announced that it was going to introduce a new show called the ‘PrimeTime Poker Report’ that will feature Donnie Peters who is the PokerNews Editor-in-Chief. The show is expected to debut on May 18 at 9 pm EST.
