Today at noon, Day 1b of Event #11: €10,350 No-Limit Hold’em Main Event kicks off. This is the final bracelet event of 2017.

This is the ninth time the WSOPE has been held, with the first series of events taking place in 2007 at the Casino at the Empire in London. Annette Obrestad became the first ever WSOPE Main Event winner at the tender age of only 18. After this inaugural event, the poker world visited London three more times for the WSOPE. France hosted the next three events, with two of them in Cannes and one in Paris. After a year hiatus, the WSOPE traveled to Berlin, with Kevin MacPhee winning the last WSOPE Main Event bracelet for €883,000.
