The WSOP series is one of the best tournaments in poker that every one has been waiting for. This is one of the main events that you can really take a look unto because of its popularity and the game is really great in here. This time’s WSOP will not be held in Las Vegas where it is usually held instead, it will be in Europe. It will be at the London Club International casinos and will be held in different location in the UK. As for now, there are 3 events that was still scheduled and can have more in time.
The first ever WSOP series will be held in London on 6th of September, last year. It will be a six-day event with a 10,000 initial entrance. As Harrah’s Entertainment announced this, there are many poker enthusiasts who had already made a great way to deal with this and was also able to make it to the field and make it to be more that the usual game that they will enter upon.
As far as the Commisioner of WSOP is concerned, he raveled up saying that “The Europe Poker WSOP have its different kind of identity, styling as well as flair, although remained to be true with its tradition of 38 years as well as the heritage brought about by WSOP.
He also stated that the new tournament will have a European feel and will be designed as such. It will really be a lot of fun to add a twist on to this tournament as it had been for all others. They are also hoping that this becomes a yearly customary for the poker pros and will be able to take hold of the Las Vegas to be the venue for WSOP during summer.
It was said that when Harrah’s was already ready to buy the LCI, it would be very good for them to have been working on bringing the WSOP to Europe. He is well aware that they are kind of late for the tournament in Europe but is willing to cope up on to it so they can also cater and have the play inside its premises. Well, as this has been the most recognizable poker series is the WSOP that is why this is such a big deal to have and to hold. When you are going to have this on the right track, it will really be a great deal to have so you can cater the entertaining needs of each player that will be essential in the world of poker.
Here’s a cool thing that they are considering to follow because they are deciding as to whether they are going to impose to have a dress code during the European tournament. A great example for this is for males to wear blazers so they will look formal enough during their play.
They are also considering having the tournament initially for the Europeans only and they will make it to be exclusive. But, you cannot just count on that right? It will really be better if you are going to have foreigners so it would be a great one to play with. Both of these issues are already getting on with every thing and have already decided to on these.
As the chief executive officer of London Clubs International, Bill Timmins, he said that they were proud in hosting these different types of extension for worlds most wealthy as well as the oldest tournament for poker on land. He also said that, as the private hosting offline of the satellite, LCI allows the players in competing in their rooms for poker found at London, Nottingham, Brighton, Manchester, and Southend to the seats for the event in Europe’s WSOP.
If we are going to talk about the online qualifiers, which will be a different issue that you might want to talk about. Harrah’s is now not able to get a qualified online poker player because many poker analysts was able to foresee that there might be some problems such as a slash to the WSOP attendance. Through this, they are able to preserve the integrity of the WSOP and it will still maintain its name and to have this kind of scheme, they will also have to be in the right place that they can have.
Now, when we are talking about the UK Gambling Act of 2005, they will legally license and regulate online poker sites. So, in this manner, having poker players online and get to play on the WSOP Europe was not a problem at all.
