World Series of Poker (WSOP) 2006

This page contains information about all upcoming events to take place at the 2006 World Series of Poker (WSOP). This year's World Series will consist of 45 individual poker tournaments. For the first time in the 36-year history of the WSOP, a poker tournament will have a buy-in fee or larger than $50,000 (H.O.R.S.E.).

This year's $10,000 buy-in No-Limit Texas Hold 'em WSOP main event is expected to draw over 8,000 poker players to Las Vegas to compete for the coveted champion's bracelet and an estimated $10 million first prize.

WSOP champions of the past include Chris Moneymaker, Greg Raymer, Joe Hachem, and Chris "Jesus" Ferguson, as well as 10-time bracelet winners Doyle Brunson and Johnny Chan.
