Heute Nacht wurde der offizielle WSOP-Schedule veröffentlicht. Was bereits seit Tagen diskutiert wurde, konnte nun bestätigt werden – Der Sieger des Main Events darf sich mindestens über $10.000.000 freuen. Insgesamt warten 65 Events auf die Spieler in Las Vegas.
Der neue Schedule der WSOP hat es wieder einmal in sich. 65 Events stehen auf dem Programm und das Rio Casino wird zum zehnten Mal in Folge Austragungsort der WSOP sein. Des Weiteren wurden einige Veränderungen vorgenommen. So starten die Abend-Events um 16 Uhr und es werden 10 Level gespielt, ehe eingetütet wird. Die Late-Registration ist bei den meisten Bracelet-Events bis Level 7 möglich und insgesamt sind 475 Pokertische in den Amazon und Brasilia Rooms sowie im Pavillion verteilt.
Neu im Schedule ist die zahlreiche Anzahl der Highroller Events. Neben den 13 $10.000 Championship Events warten unter anderem noch das $50.000 Poker Players Championship, das $1.000.000 One Drop Super Highroller und gleich zu Beginn ein $25.000 NL-Hold’em Mix Max Turnier. Ein weiteres Highlight ist sicherlich das $1.500 Super Stack Event, dass einen Startstack von 15.000 verspricht (in der Regel 4.500 Chips zu Beginn).
Seit dem letzten Jahr eingeführt, gibt es erneut das $1.000 Millionaire Maker Event. Die beiden Seniors und Ladies Events dürfen ebenfalls nicht fehlen. Neu: Zum ersten Mal in der Geschichte wird die WSOP beim Main Event $10.000.000 für den Sieger garantieren. Die Verantwortlichen erhoffen sich dabei einen Ansturm auf die Turnierserie.
Alle weiteren Informationen findet ihr auf der offiziellen Homepage der WSOP.
