Wsop Online

 

Live poker may be a struggle at the moment, but the regulated US online poker market continues to grow. That received a significant boost Wednesday with the announcement of a packed World Series of PokerOnline Circuit schedule.

— WSOP (@WSOP) July 10, 2020 Iowa’s Ron 'MacDaddy15' McMillen had never played online poker before, but that didn’t stop him from winning tonight’s @WSOP Online Event 9: $1,000 No-Limit. Official website of the World Series of Poker Tournament. Featuring poker tournament coverage of events, schedules and news. Play online poker games like the WSOP pros.

The first Online Circuit Series kicks off Jan. 14 with a total of 13 events in 2021 on WSOP.com. The online festival will be available for players in Nevada and New Jersey.

Some added good news for US online poker players? WSOP.com’s announcement hinted that a 13th series could be in a new market.

“An additional 13th online circuit event is earmarked pending launch of the WSOP.com service in a newly regulated market,” a news release announcing the circuit launch notes.

That location is likely Pennsylvania or Michigan. PA seems the most obvious as the platform has been approved in the Keystone State.

WSOP.com adds to US online poker offerings

Players can expect an experience as close as possible to traditional live WSOP Circuit events. The schedule includes an online festival each month throughout 2021.

All tournament series will feature at least 12 official WSOP gold ring events. Four special “Super Circuit” series come with an expanded slate of 18 ring events. Super Circuits also include $1,000 and $2,000 high rollers and a $500 Pot Limit Omaha tournament.

Some series will be co-branded with official WSOPC host casinos, highlighting “cash at the cage” buy-in and cash out availability. These events also offer out-of-market players special promotional rates to stay onsite.

“Players deserve great tournaments and great value year-round, and that’s what we aim to do with the 2021 WSOP Online Circuit Series,” WSOP executive director Ty Stewart said in a news release. “We’ve been thrilled with the big prize pools for WSOP.com events in 2020, and we only expect to see that grow with this new model.”

  • gold ring event during the 2021 season.

The World Series of Poker (WSOP) began a new series of online Circuit Events in 2021. The plan is to host 13 online series throughout the year, once each month plus a championship event. During that time, more than 180 gold rings will be awarded.

With the first month of the year coming to an end, so did the WSOP Circuit January Super Series, which catered to a combined 8,653 entrants and awarded $3,080,707 over its 18 events.

Among the recognizable names to capture rings were Toby 'DustPistons' Lewis, Daniel 'centrfieldr' Lupo, Katie 'azulciel' Stone, Alexander 'jinyang' Butcher, Jasthi 'vkjasthi' Kumar, and Chris 'Robotbob47' Moorman, who actually defeated his wife in heads-up play to get the job done.

Meanwhile, New Jersey pro Daniel “juice” Buzgon topped the Player of the Month Leaderboard with 88.84 points (“gldude” was second with 70.46), meaning he earned a spot in the $250,000 WSOP Online Circuit Championship to be held later this year

“jnja1719” Wins Main Event for $67,376.85

The series culminated with a $525 buy-in Main Event on Sunday, January 31. The tournament blew past its $250K GTD as 583 players rebought 310 times to create a $446,500 prize pool, which was paid out amongst the top 120 finishers.

Some familiar names to make the money were James “Meatsweats” Carroll (15th - $4,097.10), Harrison “harrisond33” Dobin (23rd - $2,589.70), John Allan “Beastro” Hinds (26th - $2,589.70), William “swaggyb” Corvino (44th - $1,830.65), Kevin “GoneBananas” Garosshen (65th - $1,428.80), Daniel “juice” Buzgon (73rd - $1,428.80), and Conrad “IamNotBlack” Simpson (94th - $1,294.85).

It took exactly 11 hours of play for a winner to emerge, which came when AJ “jnja1719” Basselini-Truisi bested Ian “bootleg23isk” Kurzer in heads-up play to win the title for $67,376.85.
