New WSOP Online Poker Site Merges Three US States; 30 Online Bracelet Events Scheduled

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

The World Series of Poker (WSOP) is making a move that will change the online poker game in the US with the launch of WSOP Online, a new platform that will bring players from three states together.

Poker players in Nevada and New Jersey are already competing against each other on WSOP.com, while those in Michigan have a separate single-state site. But that is changing with the trio of states being merged together on one online poker site ahead of the 2024 WSOP. Pennsylvania's WSOP site will not be part of the shared liquidity deal.

On top of the merger news, the WSOP has announced 30 online bracelet events this summer on the new WSOP Online.

Elia Ahmadian: JJ

No help arrived for Wang as the runout of AK3K9 meant he finished second on his table.

Level 23 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Kyriakos Papadopoulos
Kyriakos Papadopoulos

Steven Kelly shoved all in for around 355,000 on the river with a runout of 8A474. This sent his heads up opponent, Kyriakos Papadopoulos, into the tank.

Papadopoulos made the call and the players both flipped their hands. Papadopoulos showed Ax2x for a pair of aces, but Kelly had two pair with A7 to scoop the pot.

The heads-up players went back to nearly level pegging after the hand.

Jamie Dwan and Ronnie Day had cards on their backs, awaiting the board to run out.

Jamie Dwan: AQ All in
