WSOP Buyout Future Uncertain

According to a report by online Poker News organization Poker Pages, the powers that be at Harrah's Entertainment Inc are no closer to making a decision on selling out, despite having recently concluded a two day special board committee meeting to decide the matter. The meeting was convened to take and discuss bids of buy out offers, coming on the heels of similar bids from private equity firms earlier in the year. All 11 members of Harrah's board, minus chairman Gary Loveman, discussed offers from Apollo Management Group and Texas Pacific Group as well as Penn National Gaming Inc.
