WEST PALM BEACH CIRCUIT PREVIEW
The Palm Beach Kennel Club Circuit series begins Thursday with the Monster Stack event.
West Palm Beach, Fla. (November 8, 2016) -- The World Series of Poker Circuit is heading cross country. The seventh series of the season just wrapped up in Lake Tahoe with Michael Pearson winning the Main Event. He defeated a 475-player field to bank $153,191 and his first gold ring.
The eighth series begins Thursday in West Palm Beach, Florida at the Palm Beach Kennel Club. This is the first of two stops in West Palm Beach for the WSOPC. The Kennel Club will hold their second series of the season in mid February. This upcoming series features 12 gold ring events, including the $1,675 Main Event, which will award the winner a free entry into the 2017 Global Casino Championship.
The series gets off to a roaring start. The first event is a $365 no-limit hold'em monster stack event, which features double starting stacks for the players. The monster stack event is followed up by a $365 no-limit hold'em unlimited re-entry event. The re-entry event will feature four starting flights and one of the biggest prizepools of the series.
Players earn points for every time they cash in an official open gold ring event. (Seniors events and ladies events are excluded because they are not open to everyone). The better the finish, the more points the player will earn. The player with the most points at the end of the series will earn a free seat into the 2017 Global Casino Championship. More information on the $1 million tournament and the points system can be found here.
