The World Series of Poker starts today
We have everything you need to know to follow the biggest event in poker this year.

The biggest festival in poker is back today with six weeks of action and 74 bracelets to kick off the summer.
As always it begins with the $565 Casino Employees event today, as well as the $10,000 Tag Team Championship.
The big change this year is that there will no longer be a four month final table break in the Main Event. Instead having the November Nine, the final table will conclude on July 22.
There are lots of new additions to the schedule this year including the $365 GIANT, the five day long $2,620 MARATHON and the $2,500 Big Bet Mix.
