A new partnership between the World Series of Poker (WSOP) and GGPoker will bring quality WSOP Circuit action to the online poker scene. The two poker organizations will join forces to present the WSOP Super Circuit Online Series on the GGPoker Network.
The online tournament series will include hundreds of individual poker events, including 18 WSOP Circuit gold ring tourneys. The winner of each of these events will be awarded a coveted gold piece of WSOP Circuit paraphernalia.
In addition, the first-ever WSOP Super Circuit Online Series will also extend two invitations for participation in the $1 million freeroll WSOP Global Casino Championship, which is an official WSOP gold bracelet event.
One of those invitations will be given to the WSOP Super Circuit Online Series Main Event winner and the to the player who collects the most points throughout the series.
The new online poker series is set to kick off in early May and to run for approximately three weeks.
GGPoker head Jean-Christophe Antoine said the move “brings together two like-minded global organizations. I can’t wait to see GGPoker players competing for WSOP Circuit rings online.”
WSOP Executive Director Ty Stewart said he’s excited to partner with GGPoker, “an operator on the rise who is both aggressive and passionate about growing poker engagement around the world.”
GGPoker ambassador and poker professional Daniel Negreanu said that he gives credit to the WSOP for “bringing the circuit online during these trying times” and that online poker players “will love the experience of chasing rings at GGPoker.”
