|
The World Series of Poker has released the schedule for the sixth running of its European festival.
The WSOP Europe, held in Cannes, France, will run Sept. 21 to Oct. 4 and award seven bracelets.
“We can’t wait to return to the Cote D’Azur in 2012,” WSOP vice president Ty Stewart said in a press release. “We have moved up the schedule a couple of weeks to take better advantage of the great weather and all Cannes has to offer. Ask anyone who attended last year. This tournament is now a certified major championship and the experience is second to none. The media is already speculating on 1,000 players for the main event and we will be ready for them.”
The entire WSOP bracelet schedule is identical to last year.
Here’s a complete look:
