After long baited breaths the 2009 WSOP Schedule has been released!
It took much longer than normal for the 2009 World Series of Poker Schedule to come out, but ESPN have just released the full line up. It appears that the final table delay will become a permanent fixture with the main event set to start on July 3rd and finishes on November 10th.
Organiseres have added two more events this year now 57 up from 55. As previously speculated, rebuy events will no longer be in the series as organisers were concerned pros could 'buy a bracelet'. Finally, there looks set to be a staggering $40,000 no limit hold'em event at the start of the series to commemorate the 40th WSOP, which could steal the show this summer.
WSOP Event Schedule 2009
- 1 May 27, noon Casino Employees Event no-limit hold 'em (two-day event) $500
- 2 May 28, noon 40th annual no-limit hold 'em (four-day event) $40,000

The poker community was also widely divided after Harrah’s and ESPN decided to delay the playing of the final table four months last year so that it could be played “nearly live” on prime-time TV. But TV ratings were up nearly 50 percent over 2007, and the positive buzz the delay created was enough of a reason for Harrah’s to bring it back for a second year.
