The 8th season of the WSOP Circuit Tour will feature 17 different stops across the United States from September, 2011 through May, 2012, offering 12 official WSOP Circuit Ring events at each stop and once again concluding with a $1 million freeroll National Championship in Las Vegas and a WSOP gold bracelet to the winner.
The tour begins September 8 with a brand new-stop in Bossier City, Louisiana and continues through May, 2012 in New Orleans. A revised points-ranking system for all tournament participants will be used throughout and will reward those players who participate in multiple events.
The unofficial motto of this year’s WSOP Circuit Tour is “12 Rings in 12 Days.” Each WSOP Circuit stop has been retooled to begin on a Thursday, and open the three-day Main Event on the second Saturday, thereby encompassing a total of 12 official WSOP gold ring events over 12 consecutive days, and offering players non-stop poker action at the regional level.
