LAS VEGAS – Organizers of an amateur golf tournament with rules loosely based on poker say they have signed a multiyear deal with CBS to air the event on the network.

The World Series of Golf will be played this week at the Las Vegas Paiute Golf Resort, with dozens of amateur players betting on their strokes with poker chips.

The tournament is scheduled to air on CBS June 28 and 29. Terms of the deal were not disclosed.

Mark Ewing, a 31-year-old day trader from Newport Beach, bought in for $10,000 and won the inaugural prize of $250,000 last year.

In the unique format, players can go all-in after their tee shot, or fold and move on to the next hole if they hit a lousy shot. The player with the fewest strokes each hole wins the pot for that hole.
