A Word on Our Situation

[user75032]
[user75032]
If you're a regular reader of PokerNews tournament coverage, you may be surprised to see us covering a World Poker Tour event. Calls were made, meetings were held and as a result here we are. We couldn't be happier to be here.

However, things are a bit different than normal for this event. Normally PokerNews has unfettered access to the tournament floor for the tournaments that we cover. At this event, we've been informed that because of WPT's contractual obligations, we have only limited access to the floor. This will obviously make it difficult for us to provide the full coverage that you've come to expect from PokerNews tournament coverage.

The biggest impact this will have is on our chip counts page. It will be almost impossible to keep the chip counts current. We at least should be able to provide the top ten stacks in the room courtesy of the WPT live reporting team.

We will, of course, be filming video segments throughout the course of the day and will also be providing as much live reporting of the tournament action as we can. Thanks for your patience!
