WSOP PokerGO Streaming Schedule Announced

After last week’s announcement of the launch of PokerGO and last night’s epic conclusion of the 2017 Super High Roller Bowl, the attention of the poker world now shifts to the World Series of Poker.

World Series of Poker live streaming gets underway on Saturday June 3^rd at 2:30 p.m. PST, as PokerGO brings you three straight days of $111,111 High Roller for One Drop coverage with hole cards up.

Starting with the High Roller for One Drop, WSOP bracelet events on PokerGO will be led by Lon McEachern, Norman Chad, David Tuchman, and Tatjana Pasalic, among others. Throughout the summer a strong group of rotating talent provides expert strategy analysis and color commentary. This group includes Jeff Gross, Jonathan Little, Doug Polk and David Williams.

PokerGO’s coverage of the WSOP Main Event will be led by Ali Nejad and Nick Schulman, while the trusted voices of Lon McEachern and Norman Chad can be heard on ESPN. Lon and Norm are flanked by Kara Scott, Poker Central ambassadors Antonio Esfandiari, Daniel Negreanu and Phil Hellmuth and sideline reporter Joe Stapleton during the ESPN broadcasts.

“We’re looking forward to having some of the industry’s best broadcasting talent cover the most thrilling poker action of the year,” said JR McCabe, chief digital officer, Poker Central. “Our team – spanning both ESPN and PokerGO – will bring the WSOP viewing experience to life for millions of people tuning in across the world.”

“This year’s WSOP will deliver the most live broadcast coverage ever with ESPN and Poker Central’s commitment to premier poker,” said Ty Stewart, executive director, WSOP. “We can’t wait to provide the new storylines, surprises, and amazing moments of the WSOP with the help from our talented broadcast teams.”

Same-Day Coverage of WSOP Main Event Through 2020

Under the terms of Poker Central’s new deal, ESPN will telecast 40 hours of live WSOP Main Event coverage each July, plus original packaged shows totalling 130 hours annually. WSOP coverage not aired by ESPN will be streamed exclusively through PokerGO. This marks the first-time ESPN will air same-day coverage of the WSOP from day one of the Main Event to the conclusion of the final table, a model that will continue through 2020.

After the conclusion of the High Roller for One Drop, the PokerGO streaming schedule continues with the highly-anticipated $10,000 Heads Up event that runs from Wednesday, June 7 – June 9, with all three days of the event streamed. The following day, the final table of Event #16: $1,500 Six Max No Limit Hold’em broadcasts until a winner on Saturday, June 10.

Up next is the final table of Event #20, $1,500 Millionaire Maker event on Wednesday, June 14. A staple among the smaller buy-in no-limit hold’em events where at least one millionaire is crowned at the final table.

Starting with Event #27: $3,000 Six Max No Limit Hold’em on Friday, June16, PokerGO will have three straight days of final table coverage. The pro-heavy $10,000 HORSE Championship final table plays to a winner on Saturday, June17 followed by the the final table of the $1,000 Seniors Championship on Father’s Day.

Short-handed action dominates the next two broadcasts with the final table of Event #36: $5,000 Six Max No Limit Hold’em on Wednesday, June 21 and the $10,000 Six Max Championship event reaches on Friday, June 23.

The fast-paced $5,000 Turbo No Limit Hold’em plays down to a winner on Saturday, June 24. The event has 30-minute levels and last year Kevin MacPhee won nearly $500,000 when 454 entrants signed up for this new event.

The final week of June features three final tables: Event #49: $3,000 Pot Limit Omaha Six Max will be a fan’s dream of poker’s second most popular game, Event 52: $1,500 No Limit Hold’em should have a sizable seven-figure prize pool from players showing up for the Main Event and looking for warm up.

The $10,000 Pot Limit Omaha Championship final table streams on Friday, June 30. Followed by Sunday, June 2 with the four-day Event #56: $5,000 No Limit Hold’em that’s normally one of the larger prize pools of the summer.
