Later in the year, GGPoker will also host the WSOP Winter Online Super Circuit with dates still needing to be confirmed.
Gregory Chochon, Director of the World Series of Poker, said:
“The bar has been set with last year’s record-breaking series, but we’re hoping to raise it even higher this year. One of our goals is to provide as many people the chance to become champions as possible. However, we know not everyone can or is comfortable traveling yet, so continuing a robust online bracelet offering in 2021 is a must.”
GGPoker’s Head of Poker Operations Steve Preiss said:
“When GGPoker & WSOP partnered in 2020, we broke world records. Our plans for 2021 are to offer even more to our customers. With massive tournaments, WSOP gold bracelets & rings, and a route into the live WSOP Main Event in November, we hope players will love what we have in store for them.”
Full details on all online WSOP events will come out in the next weeks and months, and will include tournament dates, buy-ins and other important information.
