No official announcement from the IPT but staff members have talked to people that they're friends with in the pool world and said that most employee's will be laid off tomorrow. They're supposed to find out tomorrow at 2:00 PM CST.

The IPT has removed a lot of stuff from their website today but they're still telling people that the tournaments are a go and everything "ok". :rolleyes:
 
Mike,
Here's the Cliff's Notes version:
There was another thread that included some comments by a former IPT employee. Word is that many employees will be fired Friday. (The other thread seems to have disappeared.) KT is supposed to make an "announcement" Friday. The general feeling is that there is no deal to sell to HO, no plans to pay the players for Reno, The event at the Wynn has been cancelled, and it is doubtful that Chicago or any other events will be happening.
 
It will be "officially" over when KT says it is over. However things look bleak.

Me, I'm still nurturing the hope that there is hope. All I want right now is to see every player payed in full. If that happens I'll be content in the knowledge that these men and women made some money while the IPT was still alive. But admittedly I am disappointed that it finished before I became good enough to take my shot.
 
Is it over?? Oh man, you are strictly a small time Charlie. It ain't over 'til the fat man says it's over. Is it over Kevin, huh, is it over??
 
Actually, it is not over. Please read my new thread about the conversation I had with Deno. Chicago is on full blast and then some! See you all there!

As new information comes in, levels of hope can change. Linda has done a great job providing a balanced and reasoned opinion here.

Moments like this remind me of a saying a co-worker likes saying....B.O.H.I.C.A. I understand Linda is doing what she thinks is best. Dreams like loved ones die hard.

Believing what Geno told her resulted in her LINDA BLAIR imitation;)

Hope she and all the others that are owed $ get paid.

Hey Colin, see if Linda wants to pay for your airfare & you will add 10% to the cost of the flight if the Chicago tournament actually happens & all the players get paid.

I heard that! Seriously Linda I've got some beachfront property here in Modesto, interested? These guys are bad bad people, and your good friend and stand up guy Deno is just as bad as his boss. The guy is supposed to be running this tour and he has given nothing but false information to the players from the beginning. Chicago is very obviously a long shot and you do a disservice to your fellow pool players by assuring them it is on. Shame on you for encouraging people to send more money to these vile men!.....................Marc

You may be alone Linda.

I can't blame Linda for believing what she has been told. Even if it is a lie, it's not her fault she may have been decieved. I can find fault in putting faith in a man who has been defrauding old sick people out of the little money they have. No Linda, he hasn't changed one iota. His new book "Natural Cures II" is out and he is trolling for more poor ignorant suckers to rob. To tell you the truth, I wouldn't take one red dime of that bloodsucker cash if he offorded to give me 10 million dollars. My soul is not for sale! My faith is based on the rock! I am far from perfect and have many faults. I am doing my best to be the kind of person God wants me to be. Whatever you want to call him/her.

That reminds me of an old sci-fi book or movie where all the healthy, strong people ran to board the space ship to go off to new wealth and pleasure and there was a little boy on crutches crying because he wasn't strong enough to move fast enough to get on the spaceship.

As it turned out the people who boarded the ship were going to be food for the invaders.
