An early version of the WSOP 2018 schedule was been leaked online. WPT Five Diamond continues into Day 4. Check out these stories and more in the Friday Hit and Run.
Tentative 2018 WSOP Schedule Includes 77 Events
Poker players across the globe who plan their summers around the WSOP may be able to start penciling in dates. That’s because a draft of a portion of the 2018 World Series of Poker schedule leaked for a brief amount of time this week.
Originally appearing on the ClubPoker forum, the schedule includes 77 events in total including several Super Turbo events, Super High Rollers and 12(!) events slated for after the Main Event.
Due to the fact this is not an officially schedule, you probably don’t want to be booking flights quite yet, but it does appear to be a legitimate early draft that can at least give you an idea of where the 2018 WSOP schedule is headed.
@WSOP @WSOPTD If the leaked tentative 2018 WSOP schedule is legitimate, I LOVE the idea of the more robust Post-Main schedule!
