Spike TV’s new unscripted drama “Bring it to the Table,” by reality producer and occasional rapper Sergio Myers, mixes hip-hop culture and celebrity poker.

“Bring it to the Table” pits disparate hip-hop communities–Spike TV suggests East Coast vs. West Coast and Dirty South vs. NYC–against each other over the poker table. Instead of using cash as an ante, the players put their bling on the table–Spike TV suggests platinum pendants and pimp cups–and in the end, the losing team’s loot is auctioned off with the proceeds going to the winning team’s charity of choice.
Spike TV hopes to have the show ready by spring. In addition to directing episodes of the “E! True Hollywood Story,” Myers created “Sorority Life” for MTV and “10 Things Every Guy Should Experience” for Spike TV. His alter ego, Pony Boi, will release the album “Who Woulda Thought” in the spring.
