People can win $10 million from playing poker. Yes, it costs $10,000 to enter, but that&rsquo;s beside the point. Or possibly &ldquo;besides.&rdquo; We are not in a &ldquo;proofreading&rdquo; or &ldquo;knowing English&rdquo; or &ldquo;looking things up&rdquo; mood right now. We are in a mood to share fun facts about the WSOP!<\/p>\n<p>The most interesting fact we can think of is the WSOP was owned by Caesars Entertainment, but they sold it.<\/p>\n<p>They <a href=\"https:\/\/newsroom.caesars.com\/press-releases\/press-release-details\/2024\/Caesars-Entertainment-Closes-Sale-of-World-Series-of-Poker-Brand-to-NSUS-Group-for-US500-million\/default.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">sold the brand<\/a> to NSUS Group for $500 million, with $250 million cash up front and another $250 million due in 2029, the same year we&rsquo;ll all have flying cars and robot girlfriends.<\/p>\n<p>If NSUS Group doesn&rsquo;t sound familiar, that&rsquo;s because nobody has ever heard of it except for people who get Christmas cards from them every year.<\/p>\n<p>Caesars Entertainment retained the rights to host the WSOP live tournament for the next 20 years.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_23648\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-23648\" style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload wp-image-23648\" style=\"border: 1px solid #000000;\" src=\"\/vitalvegas\/dist\/images\/common\/transparent_3x2.gif\" alt=\"WSOP dogs\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/vitalvegas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/wsop_dogs1.jpg\"><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-23648\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">That one time at the WSOP when we wrangled a photo of actual dogs playing poker.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>But back to some highlights!<\/p>\n<p>The WSOP is made up of dozens of tournaments (as mentioned, there will be 100 bracelets given out to winners this year) with impressive-sounding names like Monster Stack No-Limit Holdem, Colossus No-Limit Holdem, Millionaire Maker No-Limit Holdem and Mystery Millions.<\/p>\n<p>There is a Super High Roller No-Limit Holdem event with a $250,000 buy-in (cost to enter). Hey, you&rsquo;re either serious about poker or you aren&rsquo;t.<\/p>\n<p>The aforementioned &ldquo;Main Event,&rdquo; is the $10,000 No-Limit Hold&rsquo;em World Championship. This year&rsquo;s Main Event starts July 2, 2026. That tournament is a real nail-biter that lasts longer than the gestation period of your typical Nubian giraffe.<\/p>\n<p>You can get further information about this year&rsquo;s WSOP on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wsop.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">official Web site<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>While the number of poker rooms has dwindled at Las Vegas casinos in recent years (poker rooms don&rsquo;t generate a lot of revenue), there&rsquo;s still a good deal of interest in the WSOP.<\/p>\n<p>The Main Event in 2025 had the event&rsquo;s third-highest level of participation (9,735 entries) in WSOP history.<\/p>\n<p>Women remain underrepresented in this male-dominated realm. Women account for fewer than 5% of those taking part in the WSOP, mainly because they don&rsquo;t want to spend all that time around poker players.<\/p>\n<p>We kid because we love!<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_44218\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-44218\" style=\"width: 845px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload wp-image-44218 size-post-thumbnail-crop-845xAUTO\" style=\"border: 1px solid #000000;\" src=\"\/vitalvegas\/dist\/images\/common\/transparent_3x2.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"845\" height=\"563\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/vitalvegas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/wsop_bracelet_suggestion-845x563.jpg\"><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-44218\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">As suggested last year, maybe tweak the winners&rsquo; bracelet for women.

It&rsquo;s a game of skill, but luck still plays a big part.
