The WSOP Circuit is Heading to Belgium in November
Table Of Contents
The WSOP Circuit is expanding to new locations every month, and World Series of Poker's secondary tour is truly becoming a world series.
Next month, the Circuit will head to Belgium for nine ring events at Casino Middelkerke Betfirst by Partouche. The action in Middelkerke, a quaint European town, starts Nov. 6 and runs through Nov. 15.
WSOP Circuit Series Highlights
Belgium has an extensive history of poker greatness, with many Belgian superstars over the years, including two-time WSOP Main Event final tablist Kenny Hallaert and bracelet winner Davidi Kitai.
There will be some skilled pros and recreational players who travel to Middelkerke to chase a coveted WSOPC ring. The first opportunity players will have to do that will be on Nov. 6 with the start of the €300 No-Limit Hold'em Mini Main Event. This tournament has four Day 1 starting flights, and players can re-enter any session.
Eight of the nine events on the schedule are of the No-Limit Hold'em variety, but there is a €300 Omaha tournament on the final day of the series (Nov. 15). Although NLH is the game played in most events, there are different varieties of NLH, including a €550 Mystery Bounty (Nov. 8) and a €2,500 High Roller (Nov. 10), the largest buy-in tournament of the series.
But the biggest event of them all is the €1,500 Main Event, which kicks off Nov. 11. The Main Event features four Day 1 flights, with Day 2 scheduled for Nov. 14. Players will start with 50,000 chips, and the blinds will go up every 40 minutes.
