It’s the time of year when everyone starts dreaming about winning the biggest poker tournament of them all; the World Series of Poker* Main Event. No other event comes close to the importance of the WSOP*. From the fame attached to winning the Championship, to the massive cash prizes, it’s where legends of poker are born. In 2008, PokerStars is giving our players more chances than anywhere else to live the World Series dream. And this year we’re guaranteeing at least 2,000 PokerStars players will be heading to Vegas.

See the video below to hear why Team PokerStars Pro members think the World Series is the greatest poker event of them all!

The best prize package around

Since Chris Moneymaker made history in 2003, winning the Championship after qualifying on PokerStars, we’ve sent more players to the Main Event than any other site. We’re keeping this tradition alive in 2008 with our best ever prize package and a range of ways to qualify. 

The city that plays poker day & night

The World Series is held at the Rio Hotel & Casino, right at the centre of the Las Vegas Strip. It’s the true home of poker, a place where the action never stops. It’s only natural that the biggest poker tournament of the year should take place in this town. Our dream prize package gives you the chance to see all that Vegas has to offer.

Your chance to win a seat at the ‘Big Dance’

Imagine being surrounded by the world’s greatest players as you take your seat in the event that everyone wants to win. When the tournament director tells the dealers to “shuffle up and deal”, everyone in the room knows they’re part of something special. With PokerStars satellite qualifiers, you have the opportunity to experience the Main Event for yourself.
