Las Vegas, Nevada – July 14, 2025 — PokerOrg today announced that it has renewed its exclusive media partnership with the World Series of Poker (WSOP®) to bring PokerOrg’s social-first style of poker reporting to the WSOP Circuit events for the coming year.
The news comes as PokerOrg continues to extend its viewership reach and achieve record growth in social and web channels during the 2025 WSOP Main Event at the Horseshoe and Paris Casinos in Las Vegas.
The WSOP Circuit is considered the world’s largest live poker tour and features 2-3 poker tournaments per month in venues across America. Players compete for life-changing prize pools and WSOP rings for tournament winners.
“The WSOP Circuit is poker’s proving ground,” said Ty Stewart, Chief Executive Officer of WSOP. “PokerOrg has shown, year after year, a commitment to uncovering unique storylines at each stop. We couldn’t be more thrilled to extend the partnership.”
During the coming year, PokerOrg will bring its social-first storytelling to U.S. Circuit stops through the 2025-26 season, profiling ring-chasing heroes and helping winners book their “Ticket to Paradise.”
Under the agreement, PokerOrg will:
Provide real-time tournament news coverage of the U.S. Circuit festivals with quick-turn written reports on www.poker.org as well as news posts on the new WSOP+ app, where available.
Create social posts that capture the tournament vibe and poker lifestyle through social shorts, reels and videos that provide the lore behind the tournament score.
Profile the players, personalities, and host venues, shining a light on the grassroots stories that fuel poker’s growth.
Build community on-site through PokerOrg’s free “Request-a-Photo” services so players can instantly download professional head-shots and table photos to share with friends and sponsors.
Drive sign-ups for the official Circuit Newsletter, keeping fans connected as ring winners lock up their $5,000 “Ticket to Paradise” packages and a shot at WSOP Paradise in the Bahamas.
Highlight the journey from local ring to global stage, following champions who parlay Circuit success into deeper WSOP runs.
“Poker is at its best when the community rallies around everyday players chasing life-changing prizes,” said Eric Hollreiser, PokerOrg Founder and CEO. “Our team will be on the rail at every stop—capturing the drama, amplifying local heroes, and giving fans fresh ways to engage with the WSOP Circuit story all year long.”
The renewal follows PokerOrg’s acclaimed summer coverage anchored by the PokerOrg Legends Lounge, a hybrid media hub, player hangout, and brand-experience zone that ran for nearly three weeks inside Horseshoe Las Vegas. In addition to a comfortable environment for players just steps from the tournament floor, the Lounge hosted a range of events that engaged the thousands of players competing in tournaments. Events included a comedy night, podcasts by renowned poker creators, chess competitions, Werewolf game nights, and signing events by poker book authors.
PokerOrg is committed to covering the American poker and regulated gaming activities and recently announced that it has added Pennsylvania to its list of gaming approvals in North America. Triple Barrel Media is now approved as a regulated gaming vendor in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Michigan, Nevada, and Canada.
