Table Of Contents
The World Series of Poker Circuit is headed to the Windy City on November 7 for the WSOP Circuit Grand Victoria. The event is hosted by the Grand Victoria Casino, a riverboat casino posted up on the banks of the Fox River just outside Chicago.
The WSOPC Grand Victoria will run until November 26. During that time, as the waters of the Fox wend their way past the paddle wheels, poker players will be floating streets and betting the river in a series of 19 poker tournaments.
All 19 of these events are WSOPC ring events, with an official WSOPC ring up top for the winner. In particular, players will be looking forward to the WSOPC Grand Victoria $1,700 Main Event which comes with a $750,000 guarantee.
