This week’s additions to the upcoming World Series of Poker schedule consist of high-stakes buy-ins, typically referred to as High Roller tournaments. These require $25K or higher buy-ins.
The additions to the 2020 WSOP so far have been many. Last week’s announcement pertained to a variety of events, including Freezeout No Limit Hold’em events with buy-ins of more than $1K and a mystery bounty tournament.
This week, the bigger buy-in events are seen to be scattered throughout the multiple weeks of the series. Some of these were already announced, such as the $50K Poker Players Championship and the $250K Super High Roller. However, a few new ones are now official – four of them to be exact.
That brings the total of tournaments on the 2020 summer schedule thus far to 61.
