The 2020 World Series of Poker may have been postponed until at least the Autumn, but that doesn’t mean there won’t be some bracelets to play for this summer. The WSOP have partnered up with GGPoker again to offer an online WSOP Festival that will award 85 WSOP bracelets across 31 events on WSOP.com and 54 events on GGPoker.

The traditional festival of live poker in Las Vegas would already be a couple of dozen events in by now, of course. With the fabled WSOP Main Event due to start on July 1st, players would be tweeting excitedly about their chances of winning a $10 million top prize.

Instead, ‘Poker Twitter’ has been an avalanche of either dispirited messages about the current political tensions in America or celebrations of other tournaments. The recent WSOP Super Circuit Series on GGPoker was a massive success, however, and on the back of that series, the World Series of Poker and GG Poker are welcoming players to 85 events between July 1st and September 6th. 

As the WSOP have announced themselves, it will be the first time that players outside the U.S. have been able to compete for an official WSOP bracelet online.
