2018-2019 WSOP Circuit Tour Begins

The 2018-19 WSOP Circuit kicked off on August 2nd at Harrah’s Cherokee in western North Carolina. The tour ends at Harrah’s New Orleans on May 9, 2019.

In between, the list of stops includes Bally’s Las Vegas in late March of 2019, as well as both Horseshoe Hammond and Horseshoe Tunica.

Changes to the WSOP Circuit

Though the WSOP saw big success last season, they have made some changes that they hope will spur improvements. The tournament has introduced some new opportunities for participants who vie for the title. One of the most beneficial changes, at least for players, is the increase in starting chips.

Each official WSOP Circuit ring event now provides players more starting chips compared to the previous season. The most popular buy in of $400 and the Main Event, now $1,700, will increase with starting chips of 50% each. This will make the $400 buy-in a 15,000-chip start and those playing in the Main Event will start with a stack of 30,000 chips. Players tend to prefer big stacks events.

More Buy-in Levels

Another adjustment to the buy-in process the WSOP has done some price point, to give entrants more entry options. These adjustments were made it hopes of easing the process time for both customers and cashiers. They also hope to amp up the prize pools throughout the tournament.

The 2018-19 season will have buy-ins featuring $250, $400, $600, $1,125, $1,700, $2,200, $3,250, and $5,300 ranges. The new adjustments to the 2018-19 season will be $250, $400, and $600. Though the WSOP has opted not to make any changes to the higher buy-ins which will remain the same at $1,125, $2,200, $3,250, and $5,300.

Big Blind Ante

The 2018-19 will see the introduction of Big Blind Ante to some ring events. Instead of players anteing every hand, they ante once an orbit when in the big blind. The new system means players will not slow down play by forgetting to ante. It also speeds up play, because the dealer’s chip collection is less complicated. This change hopes to bring a change of more fun and positive experience.

Jack Effel on WSOP’s 15th Season

Jack Effel, the WSOP Tournament Director, said of the upcoming year, “For our fifteenth season, the time was right to take a hard look at our offering and refreshing it to give players a better experience all around. Everyone loves more starting chips, and we think things like the Big Blind Ante and larger prize pools will be big hits for all players.”

What to Expect for WSOP US Tour

Each stop will offer a minimum of a dozen official gold ring events starting as low as $250 buy-in. Each Circuit stop this season will also include a $1,700 Main Event.

Most of the stops will encompass a 12-day time-frame beginning on a Thursday and ending with Main Event beginning on the second Friday and lasting four days. Throughout the 12-day period the WSOP will offer players non-stop poker action.
