Not sure if this has been covered already but do we think WSOP 2022 is going to be back on schedule for the summer again starting in Late May/Early June? I really hope so.

Anything at this point is pure speculation. Honestly I doubt even the WSOP organizers know for sure.

I'd lean toward they're probably going back to their normal schedule.

Now that the schedule is out, any idea as to when they'll be posting the event structures?

The basics are there. Starting chip stack, level duration, Re Entry. Might be a noob question but I was wondering about details like blinds, levels played until end of day, etc. They usually have a pdf you can download with all the info but I'm not finding it.

I assume you mean you feel lucky not to play with human garbage and not that that cheating pos is actually a good poker player.

No, It actually gets even better. Chris Ferguson was also at Men's table

Structure sheet PDFs have generally always been added later to the posted schedule, as often times the exact structures are still being tweaked and finalized even though the events have been announced.

Just booked my flight! I have a hunch prices are going to be climbing very soon as more and more people feel comfortable flying.

Just going to do a couple cheap tournaments (The Reunion, $600 deepstack, and maybe a couple daily deepstacks).

I’ve got a good feeling about a big score this year!

Is the colossus going to be a 3,5 donk fest where the players spend 10k just in rebuys before flight 7? That always scares me with players who should not be in hands playing crap so you have to guard and only proceed with 3 of kind or better?

anyone have guesses as to whether or not the Venetian, Aria, Wynn, Planet Hollywood, etc will be doing a major tournament series to coincide with the WSOP? and any rumors as to when they'll release schedules?

Btw, I used to get comped at Mlife and Caesars properties but now, since I haven't played them for two years now, I get ZERO offers. I booked flight and hotel through Costco Travel and got an AMAZING deal!

Still managed to get a decent rate at Park MGM and just booked my flight. Playing the Tag Team, Deep Stack the following day if we go out early and probably a couple side events. Can't friggin wait!

Yeah well, 400-500 buy in paying a million plus to winner with a bracelet. This means a lot of people re bought in again, again, again, and yet again.

They can only do it once per flight though.

that isn't so bad then, I thought it meant every level which would suck but only 1 re entry is not bad. Of course you can enter both flights and carry over your highest chip count to day 3 re start.
