The 2012 WSOP schedule is announced, Daniel Negreanu’s PokerStars account is reportedly hacked, and an update on Full Tilt. It’s all in today’s edition of the PTP Hit and Run.
WSOP 2012: The World Series of Poker released its 2012 schedule. Get all the details and the full schedule here. There are a few changes this year, with the main event having only three “day ones” and the November Nine moved up to October.
Full Tilt update: After a long silence, there seems to be a lot of news about Full Tilt Poker. First, Laurent Tapie, head of Groupe Bernard Tapie, which is trying to purchase Full Tilt, is refuting claims that Chris Ferguson could possible hold up the deal. Read that report here.
Meanwhile, a report here says that Chris Ferguson is close to settling with the U.S. Department of Justice, according to his lawyer. And the RICO suit against Full Tilt has largely been dismissed.
Negreanu hacked?: Daniel Negreanu’s PokerStars account was apparently hacked into. More here. The hacker logged in, played, and lost about $50K. He didn’t try to withdraw any money, which we’re guessing would have resulted in said hax0r getting owned by PokerStars.
EPT: The European Poker Tour Deauville is in day 1B; you can get live updates here. Nacho Barbero, Shannon Shorr and Vanessa Rousso are among those players doing well early.
And an interview with Scotty Nguyen here:
Quick hitters:
–A Utah lawmaker is introducing a bill to outlaw online gaming in the state if federal legislation regulates online gaming and poker. Story here.
–Meanwhile, an ill-fated attempt to have online poker in Washington, D.C., seems to be about over.
–You’re not Jason Mercier. Why not? Learn here.
–Is Phil Ivey no longer a fan favorite after the past year? Thoughts here.
