Caesars announced 2024 World Series Of Poker dates in Las Vegas. The tournament starts May 28 and the Main Event runs from July 3 to July 17.

The 2024 WSOP has a lot to live up to. The event last year was a record-breaker for WSOP.

The WSOP Main Event broke 10,000 registrants for the first time in the history of the 54-year-old poker tournament. A total of 10,043 players participated in the Main Event in 2023.

Daniel Weinman won the largest WSOP Main Event championship prize of $12.1 million. Eight players walked away from the WSOP Main Event last year winning more than $1 million.

Altogether, the 2023 WSOP had a record-breaking prize pool of $93,399,900.

Ty Stewart, SVP and Executive Director of the World Series of Poker has his eyes set on making the 2024 WSOP even bigger. In a Caesars Entertainment press release, Stewart said:

“Records are made to be broken. We’re busy on improvements to make sure 2024 is both the biggest and best event in poker history.”

The record prize pool for WSOP last year was helped, in part, by placing some of the most popular tournaments during the weekends when more players can visit Las Vegas without missing work.

WSOP Paradise crowns first champion

The first WSOP Paradise was announced just as the Main Event concluded earlier this year. Not coincidentally, the announcement of the 2024 Main Event dates comes as WSOP Paradise crowned a winner in the $10,000 buy-in Main Event of the tournament at Atlantis Spa Resort in the Bahamas.

WSOP Paradise Final Table Stanislav Zegal took down a field of 3,008 players in the WSOP Paradise Main Event. He won a $2 million first-place prize as well as the first-of-its-kind WSOP Paradise Main Event gold bracelet.

The event minted two millionaires. Michael Sklenicka finished second and won $1.2 million.

The top US finisher, Matt Glantz, came in fourth place. He’s taking home $685,000 from the first WSOP Paradise.

WSOP Paradise had more than $70 million in total prize money during the first year of the tournament. The event promised $50 million in guaranteed prize money.

The actual total prize pool was a little better than expected. There were a total of 15 bracelet events at the first WSOP Paradise this year.

WSOP Paradise Main Event Bracelet 6 Stewart was happy with the results of the first WSOP Paradise. In a WSOP news post, he said:

“From hall of famers winning bracelets to celebrity sightings and a classic Phil Hellmuth entrance to the Main Event, WSOP Paradise exceeded even our own lofty expectations and became the final highlight of an incredible year.”

The event aired live online overseas and recorded episodes will appear on the CBS Sports network.
