De World Series of Poker 2010 zijn begonnen. Het is de 41e editie van het jaarlijkse pokerfestijn in Las Vegas.
Op dit moment is er nog niet veel duidelijkheid over de events van de World Series of Poker (WSOP) 2010 die live te volgen zullen zijn via streams op internet.
Ik heb wel wat info kunnen vinden waaruit blijkt dat er waarschijnlijk slechts vijf events gestreamd zullen worden. De eerste zal op 26 juni te zien zijn. Het gaat om de volgende events:
- 26 juni · $2,500 Mixed Hold’em
- 27 juni · $1,500 NL Hold’em
- 30 juni · $1,500 NL Hold’em
- 1 juli · $3,000 NL Triple Chance NL Hold’em
- 3 juli · $25,000 6-max NL Hold’em

Er wordt gemeld dat de streams te zien zullen zijn op ESPN3. Of de streams ook ergens op het web te zien zullen zijn is niet bekend op dit moment. Het is wel duidelijk dat er dit jaar veel minder live streams zullen zijn dan vorig jaar toen de pokerroom PKR uitgebreid verslag deed via live streams op een speciale afdeling van hun site. Volgers van de WSOP zullen daarom vooral gebruik moeten maken van sites die ter plaatse zijn en live updates verzorgen via hun sites. We kunnen je hiervoor natuurlijk pokernews.com aanbevelen.
We zullen deze pagina bijwerken als er meer details naar buiten komen over de live streams van de WSOP 2010.
Vrijdag 28 mei gingen de eerste twee events van start: het traditionele “Casino Employees event”, exclusief voor werknemers van het casino, en een nieuw event The Poker Player’s Championship. Dit laatste vijfdaagse event zal veel interesse opleveren van de media, omdat het deelnemersveld bijna uitsluitend zal bestaan uit de grote namen van de pokerwereld. Dat kan ook bijna niet anders, want de buy-in van The Players Championship is maar liefst $50.000! Het is een mixed event, waarbij 8 pokervarianten gespeeld zullen worden. Aan de finale tafel zal echter uitsluitend no-limit hold’em gespeeld worden.
Op 5 juli zal het Main Event beginnen. Net als vorig jaar zal de finale tafel in november gespeeld worden. Dan pas zal de opvolger van Joe Cada – de winnaar van het Main Event in 2009 – bekend zijn.
