The first half of the new World Series of Poker Circuit series schedule has been released, and while the exact dates have not been solidified for most events, it allows the Circuit grinders to start making travel plans for the 2024/25 season.
The season opens domestically July 17, at Choctaw Casino Resort, and internationally at Olympic Park Casino in Estonia July 19. It’s one of five international stops so far(and yes, that includes two stops in Canada), but the schedule is not complete, and does not yet include the dates for events in 2025.
Domestically, the Circuit Series is hitting all the usual stops like Horseshoe Council Bluffs Sept. 5-16, Thunder Valley Casino Resort, Sept. 36 to Oct. 7, and Harveys Lake Tahoe Oct. 24 to Nov. 4.
While the exact tournament dates will be released later, the grinders already know that most Circuit stops begin on Thursdays, with the four-day Main Events beginning on the second Friday of the tournament.
It’s up to the venues to solidify their schedules — and each event must be approved by gaming officials — which is one of the reasons all the dates aren’t already written in pen.
Winners of all the events get a Circuit ring and entry into the WSOP Tournament of Champions, which was last held at Commerce Casino in May. This $1 million freeroll is open to all Circuit and bracelet winners throughout the year, both live and online.
“Quietly, the WSOP Circuit is far and away the biggest poker tour in the world,” said Ty Stewart, SVP & Executive Director of the World Series of Poker in a press release. “It’s time to shout about the great events that bring the excitement and prestige of the WSOP to our regional properties. This slate of domestic and international events rounds out 2024 in a momentous way, and we look forward to building on this list of dates and venues for 2025 soon.”
