WSOP makes Changes

This year’s $40k celebratory poker event won’t return in 2010. The World Series of Poker hit 40 years old in 2009 and so the WSOP held a $40k no limit Texas hold’em event to celebrate. The draw was huge as was the participation, but the organizers of the WSOP said it was never intended to be a long term event. They announced that it will not return next year. Other news about the WSOP includes the addition of more $1,000 events, following the “stimulus special” that was held this year.
