The time has arrived once again, for the 41th time the tournament that keeps online poker players all over the world on the edge of their seats. The World Series of Poker tournament started in Las Vegas on May 28 with two of the 57 events.
As usual, the tournament started with a $ 500 Casino Employee event, but Harrah’s has added a new section on day 1, a $ 50,000 Poker Player Championship. Because of the hefty buy-in and the 8-game format, the player field is limited to the poker elite, who say the predecessor of the event, the $ 50k HORSE tournament, was comparable to a Main Event strictly for professional players. 8-game is played with six players and includes 8 different poker games, players will compete for bracelets in the next one and a half month in the games Limit Hold ‘em, Omaha Hi-Low Split-8 or Better, Seven Card Razz, Seven Card Stud, Seven Card Stud Hi-Low Split 8 or Better, No Limit Hold ‘em, Pot Limit Omaha and 2-7 Triple Draw Lowball . Poker pro Daniel Negreanu said: “The best of the best poker players will test their skills.”
The Main Event starts on July 3 and has a buy-in of $ 10,000 with thousands of participants, the game in the Main Event is exclusive No Limit Hold’em. Although Hold’em poker online is by far the most popular in the gambling world, top poker players are accustomed to many different styles of poker.
