2008 WSOP Dates Announced
39th annual World Series of Poker presented by Milwaukee's Best Light beer will be held at the Rio May 30 through July 17, 2008.
a few notes.
1) the rumors about the date change were wrong
2) the rumors about the venue change were wrong
3) does this mean Harrah's doesn't expect to sell Rio before the WSOP, or does this mean one side of the business doesn't speak to the other? Do the new owners of Harrah's have any input yet?
Business as usual is of course more valuable than business interrupted so that would explain the announcement and plans even if they intend to offload the WSOP.
