12 WSOP Circuit Rings Will be Won at the WSOPC UK Festival From March 5
The World Series of Poker Circuit (WSOPC) is coming to the United Kingdom this March, bringing with it 12 ring-awarding championship events, including a £1,100 buy-in £500,000 guaranteed Main Event that you can follow right here at PokerNews.
Dusk Till Dawn in Nottingham, United Kingdom, will be packed to the rafters from March 5-20 as players from the UK, Europe, and further afield descend on the home of British Poker for what is an incredible WSOPC schedule.
WSOPC Nottingham kicks off at 3:00 p.m. GMT on March 5 with the first of five flights in the £230 No-Limit Hold'em Mini Main Event. With £100,000 guaranteed plus 10x £1,100 WSOPC Main Event seats added into the mix, the Mini Main Event is sure to be a massive hit, and is the perfect way to warm up for the bustling series.
There is a brief hiatus after Day 1A of the Mini Main Event, with the series resuming on March 8. However, from that point on, the WSOPC UK action is non-stop until the crowning of the last three champions on March 20.

One of the last champions to be crowned will be the 2023 WSOPC UK Main Event winner. There is a £500,000 guarantee on the Main Event's prize pool, but PokerNews would be shocked if that figure is not blown out of the park, not least because of the lure of the WSOPC but also because Dusk Till Dawn has a reputation for hosting the biggest and most prestigious live poker events.
It is not only the massive Main Event and the value-added Mini Main Event that have the poker community talking because all 12 ring-awarding events are sure to attract players like moths to flames.
There are £560 Seniors (50+) and £170 Ladies events, in addition to the £340 Colossus, £450 Monster Stack, and £560 6-Handed events. High Rollers are catered for, too, with a £5,300 Super High Roller and a £2,700 High Roller on the agenda. The series concludes on March 20 with the final days of the Main Event, the £250 buy-in £50,000 guaranteed Closer, and a £560 buy-in £25,000 guaranteed Mystery Bounty event.

You may recall that Dusk Till Dawn hosted a WSOPC stop in April 2019. The 2019 WSOPC UK Main Event saw 1,023 players buy in, and Russia's Andrey Veselov outlasted them all. Veselov captured the coveted gold WSOPC ring plus £114,530 after a heads-up deal with Hasmukh Khodiyara, who banked £111,935.
Other luminaries such as Timothy Chung, Fraser MacIntyre, Jack O'Neill, Andrew Hulme, Jeff Kimber, and Orpen Kisacikoglu also saw a return on their investments.
PokerNews' live reporting team will be on the ground through the £500,000 guaranteed Main Event, bringing you all of the action, as it happens, from the first pitched cards to the crowning of the worthy champion.
