Is it like the And1 mix tape tour for horseplayers? Will they have a bus and everybody gets cool nicknames?

It would seem to be so much easier - and the field sizes would be much larger - if they had all of these events throughout the tour online.

Agreed. I'd play regularly online but only live if it is in close proximity to where I live.

This tour will use the already extisting tournament schedule which means that there will be about 50 lives contests and another 20 on-line events. There will be plenty of opportunity for anyone to get involved. Look at the lineup from this year (http://www.drf.com/nhc/2007/qualifiers.html) to get a sense of just how many tournaments there are.

Hummm .... Horseplayers After Dark, instead of Poker After Dark ... I see books, t-shirt marketing, groupies, DVD sales, fan clubs ....

It really depends on how many of these they plan on having. For this to be successful and gather a following, they probably can only have 8-10 TOUR events in the year. Looking forward to reading about it and seeing what they are planning
