WSOP Hold'Em Tournament

DREAM ADVENTURE 24: Compete in the WSOP Texas Hold'Em Tournmant held in Vegas.

If I ever have an extra 10k around, this is what I'd spend it in.

4.2% of the total entry pool will be withheld for entry fees, and 1.8% of the total entry pool will be withheld for tournament staff.

Last year's winner brought home over 8 million bucks.

The Main Event of the WSOP has been the $10,000 buy-in no-limit Texas Hold 'Em (TXHE) tournament since 1972. (In 1971, the buy-in was $5,000.) Winners of the event not only get the largest prize of the tournament and a gold bracelet, but additionally their picture is placed in the Gallery of Champions at Binion's. The winner of the Main Event has traditionally been given the unofficial title of World Champion.
