Wsop Tournament Buy In
But the WSOP refused to acknowledge Madanzhiev as the 2020 world champion, as it was a $5,000 buy-in tournament. So, we now have a new version of the annual world championship event. The World Series of Poker (WSOP) is 'the oldest, largest, most prestigious, and most media-hyped gaming competition in the world'. It is held annually since 1970 in Las Vegas. Since 1972, the Main Event of the WSOP has been the $10,000 buy-in no-limit Texas Hold 'Em tournament.
Wsop Tournament Schedule 2021
The World Series of Poker Circuit events have transitioned online this year at WSOP.com.The site is running a monthly Online Circuit Series in 2021 and the next virtual stop is Planet Hollywood.
The series runs Feb. 17-28 with 12 gold rings up for grabs and more than $1 million guaranteed. If that weren’t enough the site is also hosting the Winter Online Championships in February with $1.5 million guaranteed.
