Harrah's Entertainment
Announces 2007 Schedule For World Series Of Poker
® Presented by Milwaukee ' s Best Light
Harrah ' s Entertainment,
Inc. (NYSE:HET) said today the 2007 World Series
of Poker Presented by Milwaukee ' s Best Light
will offer the most diverse event schedule in
the tournament ' s illustrious history.
The 38th edition of the world
' s most prestigious poker tournament, set for
June 1 through July 17, 2007, at the Rio ®
All-Suite Hotel & Casino – and televised
exclusively by ESPN – features 55 bracelet
events with buy-ins up to $50,000. Among the additions
to the schedule are $2,500 HORSE event and $5,000
Mixed Hold ' Em Events and a $5,000 Heads-up No-Limit
Hold ' Em World Championship.
“ The 2007 schedule
offers something for everyone, ” said Jeffrey
Pollack, commissioner of the World Series of Poker.
“ As part of our commitment to innovate
for the benefit of all players, we ' ve added
nine bracelet events and created more opportunities
for both amateurs and professionals to win poker
' s most coveted prize. ”
The 55-event 2007 WSOP schedule
compares with 46 events in 2006, when more than
42,000 entrants from 56 countries generated a
total prize pool exceeding $171 million –
the largest purse in competitive sports. The 2006
World Series of Poker Main Event – the $10,000
buy-in No-Limit Hold ' Em World Championship –
attracted a field of 8,773 players. More than
870 players won money in the 2006 WSOP Main Event,
including reigning world champion Jamie Gold,
who captured the top prize of $12 million.
In addition to an expanded
schedule, the 2007 World Series of Poker will
offer players more space, with up to 300 tables
available for tournament and live-game play. The
additional tables will enable tournament officials
to reduce the start days for the WSOP Main Event
to three. As in 2006, World Series of Poker officials
will allow players entering the WSOP Main Event
to choose their start dates as long as seats are
available on the selected dates.
For the third straight year,
the Rio Hotel & Casino will host the annual
Gaming Life Expo July 5-8. A free consumer show
featuring exhibitors from around the globe, the
2007 World Series of Poker Gaming Life Expo will
showcase a broad array of gaming and poker products,
memorabilia, books and clothing. In 2006, more
than 100,000 people visited the Expo.
Harrah ' s Entertainment,
Inc. is the world ' s largest provider of branded
casino entertainment through its operating subsidiaries.
Since its beginning in Reno, Nevada 68 years ago,
