In addition to these 13 participants, all of the players who’ve qualified from the 2019-2020 circuit events will receive an invitation to The Global Casino Championship(GCC) being held online in New Jersey and Nevada on August 13. Due to social distancing limitations, the tournament has been moved entirely online. Players may choose to participate on WSOP.com from any location inside one of these states.
“We want to do right by our players and see the promised prize money put up for grabs” said Ty Stewart, Executive Director of the World Series of Poker. “Hopefully the choice of an East Coast or West Coast destination makes it more viable for qualifying players. Our Online Circuit events have been huge successes to date and WSOP.com is a viable alternative for the last qualification spots and this year’s championship. We look forward to returning to Harrah’s Cherokee in 2021 but until then, the show must go on…online”
