WSOP after Black Friday (USAToday)

A USAToday article about the effect of Black Friday on this year's wsop. Interesting to see the numbers are up.......

Just another sign that people want to play poker and that we need to get legislation passed ASAP so that we can play online.

Good article. I found this part most interesting:

"Caesars Entertainment, the gaming giant which owns the World Series, is poised to get into online poker in the USA if the legal restrictions are lifted....Caesars already is in the online poker business in the United Kingdom and Italy and it is launching a similar effort in france. 'We only see there being three clearly licensed territories in the world currently and we're in all of those three,' says Stewart."

Yes interesting considering they were against legalizing online gaming in the US until they got their top 3 competitors shut down.

My sense of righteousness hates that we will be reduced to playing at Caesar's & friends if we ever get to play again.
