We love a good rumor here at Pokerati, especially when someone else publishes it first so we don\’t have to take a \”hit\” if a few little tibbits turn out to be less than 100 percent accurate. (Still stinging from the two we \”goofed\” on in 2010 — Harrah\’s was looking to sell the Rio and Harry Reid working on a poker-only bill; so far only one of those has proven to be true, despite public denials from people directly involved.)
Anyhow, \”facts\” shmacts … Variety is reporting that Jeffrey Pollack\’s new Federated poker league may have found itself a TV partner in CBS — as in the venerable broadcast network.
