World Series of Poker Europe – WSOPE
The World Series of Poker owned by Harrah's has just announced their World Series of Poker Europe tournaments. There will be 4 events played from September 19, 2008 to Thursday October 02, 2008.
The WSOPE will be played at the London Clubs International. You can currently register at the Rio in Las Vegas for all of the events until Sept. 1st. They are also running satellites at the Rio for players looking to satellite their way into the events.
The first tournament will be a 4 day No Limit Hold-em event. It will have a £1,500 buy-in. The second event will be a HORSE event with a buy-in of £2,500 and will be 3 days. The 3rd event will be Pot Limit Omaha and will also be 3 days with a £5,000 buy-in.
The 2008 WSOPE Main event will start on September 27th and will run for 6 days. It will be a No Limit Hold-em Event and will have a £10,000 buy-in.
BodogPoker is currently the only room running WSOPE qualifiers but I wouldn't be surprised if more rooms start running them.
