Given the amount of disruption that still exists on the East Coast related to last week’s Hurricane Sandy, Pro Poker Championship, Inc. and Dover Downs Hotel & Casino in Dover, Delaware have decided to reschedule the filming of the televised series PPC1. The new dates for the series will be Friday, January 11, 2013 – Monday, February 11, 2013.

“We wanted to wait as long as possible to make a decision about rescheduling the event, but given the reality that much of the East Coast is still facing devastation, gas rationing and power outages, rescheduling the event is the prudent course of action” stated Eric Ulis, President of Pro Poker Championship, Inc. He concluded, “We are excited about putting on a world-class event but need to let circumstances return to some measure of normalcy first.”

Pro Poker Championship, Inc. is the sister company to Red Deck Productions, LLC which creates and airs High Stakes Hold’em that airs on ComcastSportsNet and other regional sports networks across the United States. It has been announced that the much anticipated PPC1 High Stakes Heads Up Cash Match will feature Daniel “Jungleman12” Cates vs Brian Rast.
