This year when we ealk through the hallways of the Rio All-Suites & Casino, we will have the chance to see 888poker logo. The online poker software and the World Series of Poker will join forces for the 2017 series.

Of course you will have the chance to win your seat for the Main Event through 888poker. Last year Fernando Pons won his seat online and finished ninth for over a million dollars.

Ty Stewart Executive Director for the WSOP spoke with 888poker:

“We’ve seen 888poker really up the stakes in the past few years, with a refreshing new online and offline approach which aims to give the power back to the players. This shared vision and love of the game means it’s a natural partnership for both our brands. I believe this mutually beneficial approach will continue to enhance our user experience and wish our players the best of luck in the Tournament!”

The deal will continue on 2018 with the opportunity to sign it for two more years.
