Win a WSOP bracelet from the couch: And this time, it's the turn of US players.
The Fall WSOP Online Poker Festival has 33 bracelet events for players in Nevada, New Jersey, Michigan and Pennsylvania, and starts September 27.
Full schedule below.
Lefty's Lowdown: It's time to have a serious talk about the WSOP Main Event payouts.
Can't afford the $250K buy-in for the WSOP ProAm this December? Barry Carter has a solution.
Las Vegas police release images of suspects in the Jared Griener robbery: Griener was robbed after collecting his WSOP winnings and says his entire bankroll was stolen in the incident.
Griener quote-tweeted the police post, writing, “Update from the robbery case. If anyone recognizes these assholes please call LVPD.”
Amateur player (with $250K)? Apply here: The WSOP has rebranded its $250K Invitational as the WSOP Pro-Am event.
The mechanics are different to the Triton Invitational, where pros need an invite. If you're a pro at Paradise, your money is good. If you're an amateur, you'll need to apply to have your amateur status approved. Like the Triton Invitational, amateurs and pros will play separately on Day 1 before merging on Day 2.
And the WSOP felt forced to add one further clarification to its initial post: “Amateur players selected to participate in the WSOP Pro-Am are still responsible for the $250,000 buy-in. An invitation grants you entry into the event, but WSOP does not cover or provide the buy-in.”
That's us scuppered.

Nick Schulman takes down the Triton $100K Main Event: The Poker Hall of Famer defeated Bernhard Binder heads-up, after a reported deal that saw Schulman win around $3.8M and his opponent $3M.
Full story on the way.
