The ratings are little up for WSOP but the issue of Phil Ivey remains

The ratings for WSOP 2009 have gone up slightly and they have gained the rating of .75 through the ten episodes. As per the figures obtained by ESPN, WSOP 2009 have gained three percent from the past year ratings. The World Series of Poker final table will be the real test which is to be telecasted in the month of November. The event should be a smash hit as Phily Ivey will also be joining. Up to now he is quite realistic and hasn’t done any promotion.

Michele Clayborne who manages Team Full Tilt was not away and he was not accessible for any statement. Tom Somach from one of the gambling websites spoke regarding this issue. Tom writes that the organizers who are responsible for the running of WSOP are in search of Phil. After the break of four months, the nine players will be resuming their game play in the month of November.

Phil who is a jovial and laid-back player and everybody wants to interview this eloquent expert and he will be a real booster for the event. He is very much in demand and everybody at Larry King, Letterman, The Today Show, and The Tonight Show want to have him on their respective television shows. Maybe this is the most publicized ever.

But in reality it has not yet taken place and Phil is keeping himself away from all the media exposure. The last news which came about Phil’s absence was through a report which was provided by Tom at one of the gambling website and this news cam a week ago.
