I hate to say it but the WPT will not be around for much longer in its current form. With the popularity being far from its peak wall st. will not be to interested, not that they ever really were, in this company. Being that it is pretty much a penny stock with fewer interested viewers outside the real poker diehards they are simply not that interesting anymore. It would make sense that a casino purchase the remaining company and use it to cross promote its properties, but short of that there is very little value in the WPT. 1.69 is far to generous.
