Although a new venue and dates have yet to be finalized, Bibbero is confident this was the right move for the fledgling event. "Change is never easy, but virtually everyone associated with the event recognizes that the first priority is to preserve the essence of the concept -�C poker and sports fans enjoying unprecedented interaction with their sports and poker heroes,�� he said.

Those who won seats or those who bought their entry have nothing to worry about as the Sports Legends Challenge is honoring all prior entries for the rescheduled event. According to the press release, organizers anticipate a major press event within the next few weeks to announce the new location and dates.
