WSOP Online US schedule includes 33 bracelet events

The World Series of Poker Online will return in July with 33 bracelet events available for U.S. players.

The events will run from July 1 to Aug. 1 on WSOP.com.

The U.S. portion of the WSOP Online features buy-ins ranging from $333 to $7,777. The $1,000 buy-in No-limit Hold’em Championship will be held July 31. Last year, Nahrain Tamero prevailed in a field of 2,126 entries to earn her first WSOP bracelet and $310,831.83.

The WSOP Online was created last year when the flagship WSOP at the Rio was postponed then canceled because of the coronavirus pandemic. Because of America’s online poker laws, the world cannot play together online, so separate series were held for U.S. and international players. In all, 85 bracelets were awarded.

This year, WSOP officials plan for the online series to be held in addition to a regular live WSOP, tentatively set for Sept. 30 to Nov. 23 at the Rio.

The U.S. version of the WSOP Online generated more than $26 million in prize money across 31 events last year, officials said.

This year’s U.S. series includes a $500 buy-in No-limit Hold’em Grande Finale on Aug. 1 with a guaranteed prize pool of $1 million, the largest ever offered on WSOP.com, officials said.
