2010 WSOP Tournament Of Champions

Looking for some fun? Whatever you do, Don't Click Here!

Poker has come to be one of the finest games in the world, thus deserving an all-star event to define the best player. The World Series of Poker, or WSOP for short, has set up this tournament with every intention of granting one million dollars to the winner of the 2010 World Series of Poker Tournament of Champions; being held at the Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino in beautiful Las Vegas, Nevada, during the 41st Annual WSOP.

At a press conference, HIE Vice President Ty Stewart expressed his happiness of their ability to make a revamped poker game that could incorporate millions of fans around the world. He went on to explain that the opinions of several players have helped the idea evolve. He, as well as fans and players, hope that the tournament will be here for good.

Only 27 competitors will play in the freeroll poker invitational, and seven of them will be abandoned after the public votes on their choice. Voting opened March 15, 2010 and continues until June 15, 2010 precisely at midnight. To qualify, each player must be a WSOP bracelet-holder. Any living bracelet-holder is eligible, and presently there are 521 participants with eligibility. With three positions already guaranteed because previous WSOP TOC winners receive guaranteed entry, the reigning World Series Of Poker champ for both America and Europe get seats at the table, as well. That suggests that this year Mike Sexton, Barry Shulman, Joe Cada, Mike Matusow, and Annie Duke make up five out of the 27 people for the event.

TOC visitor Annie Duke feels that it is an honor to be part of tournaments, just like the Tournament of Champions. She has been quoted happily saying that winning the TOC was one moment in her poker career that she will never forget. She is just one of a few players that are ecstatic about WSOP’s involvement in hosting this event. Following the count of the votes and the announcement of the 20 players that will move on, play will begin on June 27, 2010 at the Rio. Once it comes down to the final nine, they will be back on July 4, 2010 to try and claim their part of $1,000,000 and the 2010 WSOP TOC Champion title.

People who do not make it this time are able to try again next year. Also, a final total of 57 sought-after gold bracelets are up for grabs this year, the same as last year. WSOP is the richest, biggest, and most exclusive gaming event. It has already granted over a billion dollars in prizes and bracelets, which is known worldwide as the sport’s top reward. If you’ve got the expertise, the time, and the poker face; why not try for your seat in the next World Series Of Poker tournament?
