WSOP 'won't be affected by Harrah's buyout'
2007-12-28 10:19:05
The World Series of Poker (WSOP), card-playing's premier event, will not be adversely affected by the privatization of its owner Harrah's Entertainment, a spokesman has said.
Speaking to Card Player, Gary Thompson - communications director for the WSOP - assured players and fans alike that the WSOP will not be sidelined when the Harrah's buyout is completed over the next few months.
"The WSOP will remain a key brand in the Harrah's portfolio - and one earmarked for expansion on a number of fronts," he said.
The biggest occasion on the poker calendar, the WSOP was taken over by Harrah's in 2004 when it bought out Binion's Horeshoe.
Harrah's, which has the largest revenue of any casino operator in the world, appears just one step away from being bought by the Texas Pacific Group and Apollo Management, after the takeover was approved this week by gaming regulators in Nevada.
