Harrah’s has announced the schedule for the 2005 World Series of Poker. The WSOP will begin “its evolution from a month-long special event into a year-round sport.”
Players will earn points based on their performance in the circuit tournaments and the World Series of Poker. The top 100 point-earners will receive a free invitation to the 2005 World Series of Poker Tournament of Champions, where a single winner will take home a top prize of $2 million.

Interesting.. so pretty much they’ve taken the one-table “tournament of champions” from this past year that ESPN aired (I gotta admit, that was some FUN poker to watch with all those high caliber players) and they are expanding it to the “top 100 WSOP Tour players”.
Hey, more poker to watch. No complaints š

I think it’s a great idea. It’ll get a lot of players to enter more events for a chance at this “freeroll” and the $2 million prize.

Any idea what the buy-in will be for the other circuit tournaments? I’m guessing they’ll all be $10k.
