The World Series of Poker will look a little different next year.
The news is out – there won’t be another $40k event next year in the World Series of Poker. While it is a good thing to know, it might be surprising to find this news comes as a surprise to anyone – the $40k event was always touted as a special event in honor of the World Series of Poker’s 40th anniversary.
World Series of Poker Communications Director Seth Palansky said that while the $40k event was a good event, there were was some concern than people would consider it a second main event and take away from the draw. Some other changes are in store as well, such as more $1k events.
