WSOP: programma

27 mei 2012 by felterinho

De World Series of Poker (WSOP) zijn op zondag 27 mei van start gegaan met Event 1 dat uitsluitend toegankelijk is voor mensen die ergens ter wereld in een casino werken. De officieuze wereldkampioenschappen poker vinden voor de 42ste keer plaats in Las Vegas. Tot en met 16 juli worden maar liefst 61 events gespeeld en 61 titels of bracelets verdeeld. Zo’n bracelet is een gouden polsketting en voor een pokerspeler het absolute summum.  Zo wordt er bij de voorstelling van een pokerspeler in de VS eerst het aantal bracelets aangegeven en dan het prijzengeld dat hij in zijn carrière heeft bijeengespeeld. Het mag dan ook niet verbazen dat de WSOP in de agenda van de beste pokerspelers ter wereld in het rood staan aangeduid. Tot nu toe wist één Belg, niemand minder dan Davidi Kitai, een bracelet te winnen. In 2008 schreef hij het event Pot Limit No Limit Hold’em op zijn naam.

Het hoogtepunt van de toernooireeks is de Main Event, het 10,000$ No Limit Hold’em toernooi dat begint op 7 juli en ‘eindigt’ op 16 juli. Er wordt de laatste dag doorgespeeld tot er negen spelers overblijven. Deze November Nine spelen dan normaal in november de finale tafel maar omdat er die maand Amerikaanse presidentsverkiezingen zijn, wordt de finale tafel in oktober gespeeld.

De komende dagen zal een ware volksverhuizing plaatsvinden richting Las Vegas want de WSOP trekken duizenden pokersspelers van over de hele wereld aan. Ook de beste Belgische spelers zullen er present tekenen. Sommige gaan enkel voor het Main Event (en eeuwige roem), anderen gaan om zo veel mogelijk toernooien te spelen. We komen daar de komende dagen zeker op terug.
