The Rio is clearly a better venue than Caesar's for a variety of reasons, or at least that seems to have been clearly decided within Harrah's. The budding relationship between NBC and the WSOP is based on more than just pure speculation. (Hey ... "pure speculation" ... that could make for a clever hedline, too!) ***We could also start up the WSOP at Caesars talk again.***

I doubt that’s really in play. The Rio is clearly a better venue than Caesar’s for a variety of reasons, or at least that seems to have been clearly decided within Harrah’s.

The budding relationship between NBC and the WSOP is based on more than just pure speculation.

(Hey … “pure speculation” … that could make for a clever hedline, too!)

(and have since changed it) ... was just trying to be a little clever with the whole red-carpet-gossip theme. Man, you show up to do a couple posts, and suddenly we've got a new editor around. I see how it goes ... LOL. Funny BJ, I struggled with that hedline … (and have since changed it) … was just trying to be a little clever with the whole red-carpet-gossip theme.

There doesn't need to be anything wrong with the ESPN/WSOP relationship for any of this to happen, especially with ESPN's contract expiring soon.

Or talk about having WSOP repeats airing on Bravo or one of the other NBC/Universal networks. We could also start up the WSOP at Caesars talk again.
