Don’t Miss PokerGO’s Live Tournament Coverage
PokerGO’s 2021 WSOP live coverage begins with a bang, kicking off with the final table of event no. 6, the $25,000 no-limit hold’em High Roller. This event is expected to draw the world’s best no-limit hold’em tournament players, leading to a star-studded final table with millions of dollars on the line.
The first week of PokerGO coverage also includes event no. 11, the $25,000 Heads-Up No-Limit Hold’em Championship, event no. 16 which is the $10,000 Limit Hold’em Championship, and event no. 19 which is the $10,000 Seven-Card Stud Championship.
Scheduled for Thursday, Oct.14, is the conclusion of one of the WSOP’s most popular tournaments, the Ladies No-Limit Hold’em Championship. This showcase tournament is always an exciting one from start to finish and has led to memorable victories by the likes of Barbara Enright, Jessica Dawley, Kristen Bicknell, and Jennifer Tilly. (Susie Isaacs and Nani Dollison each won the event twice, back-to-back!)
Another big-time event that sticks out as one you don’t want to miss is event no. 38. The $50,000 no-limit hold’em High Roller, scheduled to air on Thursday, Oct. 21. If you thought the $25,000 High Roller was a treat, imagine doubling the stakes.
No-limit hold’em events aren’t the only tournaments the high-stakes players will have their eyes on. On Saturday, Oct. 30, viewers from around the world will get to watch the finale of even no. 53, the $25,000 pot-limit Omaha High Roller. PLO is such an action-packed game to begin with, and this event has the added allure of a huge buy-in.
All Eyes On The Main Event
Next up is the granddaddy of them all. The 2021 WSOP main event is the highlight of PokerGO’s exclusive live coverage, with daily broadcasts planned on all but one day the event is running. In fact, 2021 marks the first year that live WSOP main event coverage is exclusively on PokerGO.
Starting on Thursday, Nov. 4, thousands of poker players are anticipated to embark on a quest to become poker’s next world champion. The WSOP main event stretches nearly two full weeks, with the only off days for live coverage being Friday, Nov. 5, and Monday, Nov. 15.
Speaking of Friday, Nov. 5, that’s when the final day of the fan-favorite $50,000 buy-in Poker Players Championship will be broadcast. If you ask the game’s most notable players, this tournament is the WSOP’s most prestigious title behind the main event. Past winners include some of the game’s truly great players such as David “Chip” Reese, Scotty Nguyen, John Hennigan, Freddy Deeb, and Michael “The Grinder” Mizrachi, who has somehow won the event a record three times in its 14-year history.
The final table of the 2021 WSOP main event will be broadcast live on PokerGO in two parts, starting on Tuesday, Nov. 16, and concluding on Wednesday, Nov. 17. All told, PokerGO is scheduled to have 12 days of World Series of Poker main event broadcasts available.
PokerGO’s live coverage of the series doesn’t end with the main event, however. There are four tournaments scheduled for broadcast in the days after, including event no. 79. The $1,979 Poker Hall of Fame Bounty is very special event that is brand new for 2021 and aims to further showcase the Poker Hall of Fame and its illustrious inductees. In this unique freezeout event, every Poker Hall of Fame member that plays will have a bounty on their head.
Wrapping up PokerGO’s 2021 WSOP live coverage are the conclusions of not one, not two, but three High Roller tournaments. First up is event no. 82, the massive $250,000 buy-in no-limit hold’em Super High Roller. This tournament boasts the largest buy-in on the schedule and should attract a rich field of competitors. After that, it’s event no. 85, the $50,000 High Roller and event no. 87, the $100,000 High Roller to finish things off.
While we’ve done our best to highlight some of the heavy hitters from the live broadcast schedule, we’re confident that every day of live coverage is a can’t-miss appointment.
