World Poker Tour Nervous

By launchpoker, Jun 9, 2008 World Poker Tour Nervous

The World Poker Tour was partially responsible for the poker boom but it looks like they may be looking for a hand out before long. The stock is down and the prospects are bleak as GSN looks like it might pass on purchasing a seventh season of the WPT show. WPT gave them an extension of two weeks to make a decision on keeping them on board. The WPT moved to GSN after fifth season on the Travel Channel, and have gone through five hostesses, while their announcers, Mike Sexton and Vince Van Patten, have stuck it through.
