The Lifestyles show at the WSOP will not have any .net or .com poker sites. Likewise the pros will not be able to promote .com or .net poker sites on their clothing if I understand correctly. Of course they can probably still have logo's, but I'm not sure.
I agree with Beanie. Endorsing these guys may have made sense in the past when you could leverage their name and face all over the place in the U.S. But with next to nothing being spent on U.S. media buys, what's the point anymore. Just to have them on your homepage? How much is that worth anymore?
It would make more sense to endorse guys like Antonius or Luske and promote in Eastern Europe. Many people don't realize, but the BIG pro's in the U.S. don't get as much respect across the pond as they do here in America.
