No Online Qualifiers for the 2007 WSOP

November 30, 2006

Harrah Entertainment, the company that organizes the World Series of Poker every year, has announced that it will not accept registrations from online poker rooms. Many players who qualified through Internet poker tournaments at online poker rooms will no longer take part in the 2007 because they cannot afford to pay the $10,000 entry fee by themselves. Consequently, the number of participants is expected to be much smaller than in 2006, when it reached a record of 9,000 players. It is too soon to estimate how many poker enthusiasts will participate in the most exciting international poker tournament of the year, which is scheduled to begin on June 1, 2007.
