What happened to Matt Savage?

[poker327]

Matt said in an interview on Cardplayer.com video that they wanted someone in house to run the tournament. He ran the Full Tilt tournament at Wynn during the WSOP Main Event.

not necessarily. he's done a few events for fox sports. since i think he basically has his own company where he runs the events for the casino this may be more lucrative. plus it is likely alot less hours. so he might not be doing so bad.

I noticed he wasn't the director this year in the (articles i read) WSOP?

I've read a few that tell of him directing in Europe. Anyone know . . .?

He also directed a big tourney in England recently. You can check out what he's up to in our interview.

Matt's a good guy and a great tournament director. He is now essentially a freelance consultant with some ongoing tournaments locked up. He does the UB "final tables" and some of the majors. You'll see him often enough on tv.

I think the more important question is : what happened to Fred Savage?
