New WSOP Online Poker Site Merges Three US States; 30 Online Bracelet Events Scheduled

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Livello 21 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

The World Series of Poker (WSOP) is making a move that will change the online poker game in the US with the launch of WSOP Online, a new platform that will bring players from three states together.

Poker players in Nevada and New Jersey are already competing against each other on WSOP.com, while those in Michigan have a separate single-state site. But that is changing with the trio of states being merged together on one online poker site ahead of the 2024 WSOP. Pennsylvania's WSOP site will not be part of the shared liquidity deal.

On top of the merger news, the WSOP has announced 30 online bracelet events this summer on the new WSOP Online.

"It would've blown my mind if you folded a small flush," Welker told Dukic as players prepared to head off for dinner. "You're still chip leader, give some back to the peasants."
