The World Series of Poker announced the domestic half 2017-2018 WSOP Circuit schedule and it grew to a record 26 stops. The international side of the Circuit schedule is expected in the coming weeks, but they’ll all be playing towards the $1 million + Global Casino Championship.
“We are very proud of what the WSOP Circuit has become and how it has performed for our partner casinos who have come aboard,” said Ty Stewart, WSOP executive director. “Players know they get a consistent structure and schedule at each stop, plus the opportunity to win big prizes as well as their seat into the million-dollar free-roll with a WSOP gold bracelet up for grabs.”
Three new properties join the tour, several familiar host properties return and player favorite stops like Harrah’s Cherokee, Choctaw Durant and Las Vegas get multiple Series.
Joining the tour for the first time is Thunder Valley Casino in California and two Seminole properties in Florida join as well – Seminole Hard Rock Hollywood and Coconut Creek.
Truly exciting to now have @WSOP circuit stops at Seminole gaming properties! Mark Sept 21 – Oct 2nd on your calendars for Hollywood! https://t.co/zV9Kqtyp0C
