The World Series of Poker (WSOP) International Circuit expands its 2017-2018 schedule to 11 different countries and 13 confirmed stops. When the year turns over, additional stops are expected to be added. Each month, the circuit will have a tournament until its conclusion in May 2018. Of course then, the WSOP kicks off its annual stay in Las Vegas.
The international circuit is similar to the U.S. domestic circuit as it will feature two qualifiers per stop for the WSOP Global Casino Championship. A Main Event winner and the Casino Champion will have their pass into the season-culminating event. Both winners will also receive a WSOP Circuit ring and prize money from the event. In the Summer of 2018, the winners from the U.S. and International tours head to the same tournament to vie for the Global Casino Championship.
“Our partner casinos have done a terrific job bringing the WSOP brand and experience to their properties,” said WSOP Director Gregory Chochon. “The WSOP International Circuit is here to stay and we look forward to continually improving the experience and prize pools for the players.”
