Anyone residing in the states of Nevada or New Jersey (in the USA) are the only ones allowed to play on WSOP.com

Hey Shells,
I thought they were still hoping to play possibly later in the year in Vegas as well if things settle down and its safe. Have they officially said its done this year live? I can find anything saying that the case. While I still doubt it will happen i can hope it will.

Well I think this is good for poker although it will be a different kind of WSOP for sure .... sadly as others have already mentioned just another summer for those of us who live here and it's really sad that we can't play a game that is a part of American culture .... for those who will play ... Best of luck !!!

Hi Kenny,
I don't know if there will be any live poker at all this year based on what I am reading. I went to the WSOP website and they don't really state there will be anything in November, so this might be the best option they can come up with for 2020.

That sounds interesting. Hopefully we'll get to watch it online or on ESPN. 2021 will be big for the WSOP.

Here's a link that may help some schedule which bracelet they would like to win:

Well it is awesome for everyone except those in the US.
Yes, unless you are in one of the states that allows WSOP.com, you'd have to either re-locate to one of those states, or internationally to play on GG Poker (canada/mexico/somewhere else).
Best of luck to you. I remember your deep run in the Main Event from a few years ago. Here's hoping that your online skill will give you an edge over many who are mostly live players.
WSOP in recent years offered an online event or two, so the online element is something that's not going to go away in the future. You just have to meet the requirements to play in those online events.
They haven't really directly been delivering bracelets in recent years, especially post Black Friday, as they haven't offered any satellite series for WSOP. They only offer events for PokerStars branded live series.
You might want to check either WSOP or GGPoker, depending on where you are to see if they are offering satellites to the bracelet events. I can't imagine that they wouldn't, given that they did exactly the same thing at the Rio during the live series.
If you check Twitch, you will almost for sure find some kind of live streaming of the series. GGPoker has a Twitch channel, so check it out. I am not sure if there are going to be other streamers doing the same thing, but that's the one that comes immediately to mind.

I wonder if they will do any Twitch streams to broadcast this? Also will they reveal the players behind the screen names? Not sure if the terms of playing make you put your real identity somewhere. There is always a wavier for something.

It wouldn't surprise me if PokerGo offered some kind of stream with this.

Thank you very much for the information!) So we will conquer the WSOP) By the way GGpoker, a very good room, I really like it, especially since statistics are not collected for additional programs, and it is forbidden to use programs. Go ahead for bracelets !!!)))))

I was so excited when I heard this news. Then I looked into it further and found out you have to live in Vegas in order to be able to play. I wish they would legalize online poker for all of the States in the United States. Since I live in Texas I wont be able to play. I would like to wish everyone best of luck if you are able to play in it. I have played in a few WSOP events and have cashed. I use to go every year, trying to win that WSOP bling, ring or bracelet!

As stated before, this sucks for most Americans.
I would almost consider a quick flight to New Jersey, but I've seen no assurances about how the integrity of the game will be established.
Does anyone know if the sites are banning huds, bots and how are they going to deal with ghosting and collusion among other things?
