2 casinos in Ohio and neither of them get a stop. This is the casino/Ohio game commissions fault though.

Not sure there will be anything soon in OH. Thinking there was another thread about how OH had 3 of the 4 stops that had been cancelled, with Katrina causing the other in NO. Unfortunate that Cincy tried to angle the gaming commision by failing to put in the necessary cameras in the ballroom. (allegedly). That was a great stop.

St. Louis and KC are too strong of markets to miss out on the circuit. What a shame

They take out St. Louis, Biloxi, and Foxwoods 2. Add Ballys and Baltimore 2. Definitely trending away from non Caesars properties.

The press release does not mention anything about the top 100 WSOP players being able to buy into the Natty. Just says that anybody who won a ring during the year is eligible to buy in. Does that sound right? No more non circuit players in the Natty. If so, that's a great change.

Mexico? Didn't a poker tounrey get busted a few years ago, raided by local police?? Was a big fiasco if I recall.
Has something changed?

Kansas City has a Harrahs though. They could have just swapped CB with that. You would get everyone from KC, OKC, STL, Omaha, Des Moines, Tulsa and more. And much more ppl from Dallas would probably come compared to Council Bluffs.

The WSOP is not going to take an event away from any stop that wants it and continues to pay the $125,000 if a Ceasars property and $150,000 if not.

I'm sure there were negotiation issues that caused them to drop biloxi and other stops. But in my opinion even though it was a smaller stop they should have done all they could to keep biloxi on the schedule. All they had to do is put a guarantee on it to increase the numbers... The beau has proven biloxi can have large numbers. I mean I don't like the idea of having multiple stops in several cities and eliminating other stops. Looks too much like a money grab. Yes I am a weekend warrior but can't drive to Palm beach or vegas for a weekend. I thought the circuit was about attracting players across the country! Not just the hotspots.

Follow The Money. Its all about the money, for a company (from what I hear is about to go bankrupt) maximum profit has to be a consideration in everything they do. For them to drop the December Atlantic City stop says a lot, you don't produce you lose your stop. I am also a "weekend warrior" and play 6 to 10 events a year at 2 locations.

No matter what we think of the schedule, structures, treatment of the players it is up to us to keep flooding this circuit with as many players possible to insure it is around for another 12 years.

Sure was hoping against hope that a stop would return to Shreveport/Bossier City. Seems they had great fields.

I suppose Horseshoe's casino management was not too happy with the tent above their boat.

Maybe one day they will reconsider . . . .

Don't hold your breath as their casino management isn't poker friendly.

I wish they would add a stop somewhere in the Pacific Northwest. Or bring the Circuit back to B.C. Canada

Horseshoe Baltimore's website has their August 2015 WSOP-C Schedule posted.

https://www.caesars.com/content/dam/...vaganza_V2.pdf

The noteworthy event is the first Big O MTT on WSOP-C (8/25 @ 5:00PM).

(I'm not sure when separate threads should be created for the upcoming 2015/2016 schedule, so I will post upcoming events here for now.)

OMG that's so awesome a Big O Ring Event.

I need to get Jimmy to have one for the Choctaw stop.

looking for advice from someone familiar with the baltimore area/stop

ill be flying in on the morning of flight b of the main and have two options, arrive at 715 am or 955 am

assuming the flight is on time, what are the chances i could get off the plane (no checked bags), get to my rental car (alamo "skip the counter"), drive to horseshoe, park, get in reg line (long?) and be at the table all in an hour?

if unlikely ill just book the earlier flight but would like to avoid getting there that early if possible

With the amount of chips, Structure etc..its no big deal..... Your chips will not be in play until you get there. No worries......

Atlantic City in December was one of the worst stops. Atlantic City can draw people but most of them have to drive a few hours so they probably need to be more creative than some other stops. (Maybe a decent size guarantee, plo, or a deep stack on the schedule.)

LA at the bike will do much better.

they replaced san diego with a second los angeles stop. drive 2 hours north if you want to play, it's not that far. the bike will definitely get better fields than harrahs rincon/socal had

It got basically the same fields in everything except the main last year. There's always a series running at the Bike, there's nothing good in San Diego and there's lots of poker here.

Not happy with the change.
