WSOP also revealed on Twitter, that the November Nine would not be returning this year.

Here is some Tweets from WSOP:

-A few hints on WSOP schedule coming tomorrow...you won't find the November Nine returning.
-Another good change coming to WSOP in 2012...no off day during Main Event.
-The WSOP Main Event this year will be 3 days shorter without compromising structure at all.
-All days will play the standard 5 levels guaranteed...except potentially the last day. Start play at 12 noon, finish 12:40 am.

Although the new schedule has not yet been officially released, some information about the 2012 schedule can already be found on TwoPlusTwo.

Keep an eye for the WSOP.com today for the official 2012 WSOP Schedule.

Update: Here is the link to 2012 World Series of Poker tournament schedule - As you can see there will be no November 9 this year, but there's an October 9 Oct. 28-30.

"One more important note relating to the WSOP Main Event: as is now customary, the delayed final table
shall return but will be contested one week earlier than in previous years.

With the U.S. Presidential Election slated for the first Tuesday in November, the WSOP Main Event final table will be held in two stages, from nine players playing down to two on Sunday, October 28th, with heads up play on Tuesday, October 30th.

Once again, the Penn & Teller Theater at the Rio will host the finale, in front of an
anticipated live television audience on ESPN and ESPN2."

Does that mean they just simply play all the way down to a winner instead of waiting months for the final table? I hope so..

I wish that was what was happening but its not. They are just playing the final table at the end of October rather than the beginning of November, so technically there is no November 9.
