WPT season 9

[Ringo]

The WPT has just signed a contract with FSN to televise season 9,10 and 11 at 8pm on Sunday nights starting in Jan 2011.
Steven Lipscomb who was replaced as CEO at the WPT is still quite involved in WPT players lives still. He created the WPTE in which he controls the advertising of all the players and gets them roles in movies. He also is involved in the China WPT. Steve has stated many times that the WPT has never made a profit, yet he continues to chase the golden parachute.
He also was president of Voyager Oil and Gas and on April 16, 2010, Steven Lipscomb was terminated as Voyager's Chief Executive Officer, President and Secretary.
It is good that there is a new CEO and President of the WPT, it just might make a comeback.
Though the comeback should be rather slow considering the hole Steve left it in.
Good ridence Steve.

PS some players don't like being under advertisement contract with WPTE.

I like the WPT myself and I suppose the WPTE isnt much different, just euro. But ya hopefull they dont go under water this time, as it would be great to see some poker during WSOP's off season. Any chance of that?
