- The November Nine experience will now stretch out over four days (November 7-10) instead of three. That's the opposite of the direction I'd hoped they'd go in: in 2008 it was already difficult to avoid the results till the broadcast.
- Warnings and penalties given to players will be recorded in a database this year. Last year it seemed that celebrity poker players got away with things that ordinary players wouldn't. We wrote about the Phil Hellmuth, Scotty Nguyen, and Phil Ivey cases and speculated that it was done for TV. Note that keeping a record of warnings and penalties that are given doesn't insure that warnings or penalties will be given to celebrities in the future.
