Historic TDA Summit VI Draws Record Turnout to Standardize Global Poker Tournament Rules

The Poker Tournament Directors Association (TDA) held it’s sixth TDA Summit on June 26-27, 2013. Over 160 TDs from all over the world gathered to review the rules and vote on changes and additions. After two days of intensive discussion, 9 new rules were adopted, and clarifications were made to 25 of the current rules.

“TDA Summit VI was the most productive since Summit I in 2001”, commented Founding TDA Board Member Dave Lamb. His fellow Director Matt Savage attributed the success of Summit VI to: “…the members and volunteers who attended and especially to the new directors: Jack Effel, Tab Duchateau, and Neil Johnson, who literally bring a world of experience to the TDA”.

Version 1.1 of the 2013 Poker TDA Rules were released August 11th.
