2008 WSOP Dates Announced

Russ Fox · #1 10-08-2007, 07:32 PM

Per a press release I received, May 30 - July 17.

The exact schedule of events TBA. A "soft opening" will begin on May 26th (for two special events) to "avoid the lines we had last year during opening weekend...."

I thought they were gonna bump it up a little but this is pretty much the same as 2007.

FWIW, May 30th is a Friday and May 26th is Memorial Day (Monday).

Hope they use nath's suggestions for the deck. SEVEN! lol

Sorry. They don't play Indian Poker any more. But you can find a game of "Native American" holdem at some of the smaller card rooms.

Okay, I have to ask. What in the heck is 'Indian Poker'?
