"This is our most exciting WSOP poker schedule yet," said Jeffrey Pollack, commissioner of the WSOP. "Both amateur and professional poker players will have new opportunities to compete for a WSOP bracelet and can choose from the widest variety of games and buy-ins ever offered in one poker tournament and certainly at the WSOP. The 2008 World Series of Poker events will start May 30 with the $10,000 buy-in World Championship of Pot-Limit Hold'Em and will conclude on the 16th of July with the premiere Final Table of the $10,000 buy-in World Championship of No Limit Texas Hold 'Em WSOP Main Event. In addition to the largest cash prizes in poker, winners of each of the 55 poker events will receive exclusive World Series of Poker gold bracelets. Last year, 54,288 poker players participated and ranged in ages from 21 (Steve Billirakis) to 94 (Jack Ury) who competed for Poker's largest total prize pool of over $150 million.
