Default Re: Strange WPT Blurring

I agree that a gambling web site could be a problem with the feds, but let's be real here. You're seeing some sites, but not others. They aren't wiping everyone out, just "non-sponsors". If a gambling site put up say UltimateBet, but not UltimateBet.com, would that be a violation? I really don't know, but if UltimateBet is a violation, how is UltimateBet.net not? Like EVERYONE doesn't know what that really means.

There are federal restrictions to consider, yes, but I also suspect exclusive sponsorship has something to do with it. Is AB going to allow someone to wear a Miller hat on the WPT? Again, I have no direct knowledge, but I suspect there's a restriction.

Has anyone who's been on TV at any of these events ever been given a list a restricted logos? I recall someone posting about getting on a WSOP final table and getting their hat replaced, but that's been awhile. I'm curious.
