World Series of Poker Circuit to Make Annual Stop in Tunica, MS.

Posted by James on December 23, 2008

As is customary in the month of January, the World Series of Poker Circuit Event will be headed to Tunica, MS from January 20th to February 3rd. The event will be held at Harrahs Tunica. This resort features a golf course, two hotels, a kids arcade, and is one of the most awe inspiring properties that Harrahs owns.

This year’s event will be the only game in town as the WPT decided to not renew the Tunica stop on the current season of the World Poker Tour. For years, the WPT and the WSOP competed for the tournament dollars of local poker players. This year, the WSOP should show a strong crowd for most events. Expect many pros to be among those in attendance during the events.

For more information, go to www.worldseriesofpoker.com. For those that may think about going to the event, discounts are usually offered for players playing in the events. Shuttle services are also available from the hotels to the casino. If you have never been to Tunica or to a WSOP Circuit event stop, this is one that you shouldn’t miss.

The scheduled for the circuit stop is below:
