WTF I can't believe that I have been popping into this thread since this latest "news" without realizing until now that this "news" will supposedly be released on my birthday.

Hmmm. Facebook birthday wishes are already rolling in by the dozens, and my F5 key is all warmed up.

Yep. Looks like I won't be getting anything constructive done at work tomorrow.

happy bday Drew

Thanks bro!

Nice way to maximise value Wendeen.

Eolis has "cashed" a total of seven times at the World Series of Poker (WSOP) [32] and was appointed to the World Series of Poker Players Advisory Council (PAC) in 2006. She was the first woman to cash in the main event of the WSOP (1986) and the first one to do it twice (1993).[33] She has since cashed at the WSOP in 2003, 2004, 2006, 2007, and 2009. The WSOP issued a commemorative chip[34] for her "milestone" for women (1996) and in 2007, Commissioner of the WSOP, Jeffrey Pollack, dubbed Eolis the "grand dame of poker".[35] Eolis also won the European Open[36] No Limit Hold'em Tournament in 1990 and has cashed in the World Poker Tour,[37] and the United States Poker Championship.[38] Eolis was elected to the Professional Poker Tour (2004–05)

Show us the moneyz Grand Dame of Poker.

Don't panic people, it's very early morning (almost 6 AM) in Isle of Man. I think if news will be announced it could happen after 3-4 hours.

Happy Birthday to Drew. WHAHAYYY!!

No but seriously, let's here some good news today people. #gogogogogo

Where would we get the announcement anyway, if we were to get one. pokerstars.com?

NVG tonight if wendeen lied to us:

Can someone summarize for those of us who don't follow this thread and have only heard of an announcement on Monday what the poker community has heard? Any idea when the actual announcement is going to come, reputable source? Thanks in advance

Nobody knows. Might not be an announcement. No one even knows if there is a deal 100% done.

DOJ

i know it's silly considering we might not hear anything tomorrow/the deal might not happen but with all this anticipation right now, i feel like a kid laying in bed on christmas eve

today is The Day. I feel it in my stomach.

stomachs.... yeah.... always a VERY reliable source.

Going to bed... I better wake up and 7k ppl viewing this thread....

wow cant believe everything has been kept so tight lipped... i left friday shortly after wendeen posted her article and just got home and nothing new :O
