Poker Tournaments in FL Shut Down?

[MeanGreenTT]

2 places in Tampa, well 3 including the Indian Gaming Hard Rock Casino, run tournaments that I frequent, Derby Lane Dog Track and Tampa Bay Downs Horse Track. I went down to play the 150 person Saturday tourney at Derby Lane this past weekend (Silks isn't open until December) and was informed that ALL tournament play was shut down indefinitely by the Florida Division of Para-Mutuel Wagering.

I've placed calls and left messages over the past 3 days with the Wagering office but have yet to hear anything back about why and when....

Doesn ANYONE have any information about this, thanks!

And the REALLY odd item is that live cash games ($1/2) have been allowed to continue, it's ONLY tournaments that have been suspended....caca to say the least [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]
