WSOP CIRCUIT HEADS TO THE TULSA

The World Series of Poker Circuit has a new home this week. For the first time ever, the Circuit will be hosted at the Hard Rock Casino Tulsa, from March 16 through March 27.

Action kicks off at 11:00 a.m. Thursday morning with the always popular $365 Monster Stack event. Then the $365 multi-flight re-entry event takes up the first Friday and Saturday. The tournament has a $250,000 guaranteed prize pool, and four starting flights (11:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. on both Friday and Saturday).

Other highlights include an Omaha hi-lo event, and no-limit hold’em six-max tournament, and a pot-limit Omaha event. The second weekend wraps up with the Main Event and a $2,200 high roller.

As with all Circuit stops, two players will each earn a free seat into the 2017 WSOP Global Casino Championship in August. This invitation-only event has a minimum prize pool of $1,000,000, and is open only to qualifiers from the Circuit and a select group of players who have the option to buy in for $10,000. The Main Event winner at the Hard Rock will earn a free entry, as will the Casino Champion – the player who earns the most Circuit leaderboard points through the 12 official ring events.

Here’s the ring event schedule for the Hard Rock Tulsa. For a full schedule, including satellites, check the Hard Rock website.
