WSOP to again delay final table
This year's 40th anniversary World Series of Poker final table will once again be delayed.
We're a fan of poker as a stamina sport, but apparently Harrah's (which owns WSOP) crunched the numbers and found delaying profitable, so we have it again.
The $10,000-buy-in main event will also again run through the July 4th holiday, which in Las Vegas, isn't that big (in fact, there are barely any fireworks, at least not as many as New Year's Eve).
The WSOP main event starts July 3 with multiple first and second days, then dwindles to the final table on July 15.
Then ESPN will swarm the 9 remaining players (maybe they'll do a reality show this time) as they cover what they're up to in the months-long intermission.
The players will regroup on Nov. 7, and play will continue until there's one winner.
