Packed with action day and night, traffic across the Natural8 platform has been on the busy end of the street since the GGNetwork overtook the top spot in online poker traffic just a year ago. Mind blowing prize pools, astounding turnouts and overall great value games are just some of the factors players can’t get enough of, and this August appears to be no different.
With the summer games having come to an end, bracelet chasers will be thrilled to know that the World Series of Poker action continues on through this Autumn season. Getting ready to hit the screens this August 20 through October 2nd, the much awaited WSOP Online features another 33 bracelet event line up for this year’s festival, highlighted by two key events – #28 WSOP Online Main Event and #33 GGMillion$ Super High Roller.
“WSOP Online is a testament to GGPoker’s commitment to bringing unparalleled poker experiences to players worldwide, and promises an exhilarating journey filled with intense competition, incredible skill, and the ultimate honor of becoming a WSOP Online champion.”, stated GGPoker in its press release.
Adding in the promise “to cater to players of all levels, from seasoned professionals to passionate newcomers”, the leading network ensures a wide range of buy-ins for its bracelet events from an affordable $100 to its highest priced $25,000 Super High Roller Championship. While taking a shot in the WSOP games may be out of budget for some, players with limited bankrolls can take advantage of the numerous satellites available and at least a dozen bracelet tournaments around the $500 range.
Daniel Negreanu, GGPoker Global Ambassador, expressed his enthusiasm for the forthcoming WSOP Online: “I am thrilled for GGPoker to continue our groundbreaking partnership with WSOP and unveil another exciting year of WSOP Online. This series will captivate poker players worldwide once more, as it’s not only an opportunity to compete for a legendary WSOP Gold Bracelet but it also brings together players from different regions to showcase their skills. This is a unique chance for the poker community to come together, take part in the most prestigious online poker series and create a truly unforgettable poker experience!”
