While the live WSOP has been postponed and targeted for this fall due to the COVID-19 pandemic, poker enthusiasts have been clamoring for the online portion of the schedule to be released. The wait ended over the weekend, as the schedule leaked for the 2020 Summer Online World Series of Poker on WSOP.com.
An official press release followed on Monday, but the leak was initially picked up by Joseph Cheong and Chris Moorman, with the former taking it to Twitter.
The WSOP's presser further expanded on the 31 planned events for WSOP.com with the announcement of another 54 to take place on newly minted partner GGPoker.
“It wouldn’t be Summer without WSOP,” said Ty Stewart, executive director of the WSOP. “While we are thrilled to be reopening our venues and optimistic about future offline events, we couldn’t be more excited about deepening our relationship with GGPoker and watching some history unfold online this summer.”
Official Gold Bracelet Event Every Day in July
The online bracelet schedule for the Summer Online WSOP contains a whopping 31 events, running daily throughout July. In addition to the daily bracelet up for grabs, players can also participate in a $100,000 Online Bracelet Series Leaderboard, where points can be earned for additional cash prizes.
It's unknown at this time whether the events will be finished in one day or extend to a second day.
The scheduled WSOP.com events are available in hold'em and Omaha formats. Popular live staples like the BIG 50, MonsterStack and Senior's Event have been moved online.
The marquee tournament is $1,000 No-Limit Hold'em Championship, which takes place on Friday, July 31. All events will kick off at 3 p.m. PDT.
Satellites are running for as little $1. Players need to be physically present in either the states of Nevada or New Jersey to be able to participate on the WSOP.com client, which means players in Delaware will not be able to participate.

GGPoker to Carry Additional Bracelet Events
$500 WSOP.com No-Limit Hold'em Kick-Off
If 31 online bracelets wasn't enough, another 54 will be awarded on GGPoker to make for 85 total.
While the schedule for said events hasn't been initially made available, they'll run from July 19 through Sept. 6, meaning there will be some overlap with the WSOP.com series. The WSOP did promise that 'buy-in levels and formats that cater to a wide range of players' will be on tap at GGPoker.
Wsop Online 2020 Poker
The announcement of online bracelet events on GG comes as little surprise after the two companies wrapped up an online WSOP Circuit series that awarded 18 gold rings to winners. More than $47 million was paid out in said events, blasting past the $28 million in guarantees, and the entire series ran into the nine figures.

“With over $100M in guarantees during the WSOPC Super Series in May and more than $134M in awarded prizes, it’s clear that GGPoker and the WSOP make a good pair,” said Steve Preiss at GGPoker.

In an interesting twist, the 85 scheduled online bracelet events almost exactly mirrors the originally announced 87 live bracelet events planned for summer of 2020 before the COVID-19 pandemic shut those plans down.
The actual make-up of those events, though, couldn't be more different. Traditionally, the WSOP has hung its hat on being the poker festival that offers the widest variety of poker formats — don't hold your breath while looking for big razz or 2-7 single draw tournaments outside of the WSOP.
None of those niche and mixed formats are likely to be played during the online portions of the WSOP. The WSOP.com schedule, as it has been in the past, is made up of Omaha and hold'em events. The GGPoker schedule, while yet to be released, figures to be the same as the client only supports no-limit hold'em, pot-limit Omaha, and short deck.
Those who enjoy other formats or consistent action at five-figure stakes shouldn't give up hope just yet, however. WSOP Executive Director Stewart indicated nothing has changed as far as the planned running of a live 2020 WSOP later in the year.
'We are still hopeful the traditional WSOP may be played November-December and for all of our partners are considering this a brand extension versus a pure replacement,” he told PokerNews. He also revealed that all official ITM statistics (cashes, final tables, etc.) will be tracked and reported, and that player identities would be validated.

Table Of Contents
The much-anticipated schedule for the 2020 World Series of Poker Online on GGPoker has been released, with 54 bracelet events on offer. Bracelet events start from July 19th through until September 6th, with buy-ins ranging the $25,000 NLH Poker Players Championship down to the $50 BIG 50, the lowest buy-in WSOP bracelet event in history.
The $5,000 Main Event will start August 16th and comes with a huge $25,000,000 guarantee, the single biggest guarantee in the history of online poker.
The online Main Event will be a three-day event, featuring multiple freezeout Day 1s, with Day 2 taking place on August 30th.
Over $60m in Guarantees
A total of 12 events come with guarantees including The Opener, Mini Main Event, COLOSSUS and PLOSSUS.
Total guarantees come to over $60 million, with the $25m GTD Main Event, $10m GTD NLH Poker Players Championship and the $5m GTD WSOP Super MILLION$ three of the biggest.
Other Events
As expected, the vast majority of the WSOP 2020 Online schedule on GGPoker is made up of no-limit hold'em, with ample opportunities for pot-limit Omaha fans. There are also bracelets in Limit Hold'em and Short Deck. According to the announcement, GGPoker will run a series of micro and low stake tournaments leading up to the WSOP.
Satellites will commence on July 1st, as well as throughout the WSOP Online itself.
“We knew GGPoker would go BIG on the WSOP Online Series, but this is ridiculous,” said Ty Stewart, Executive Director of the World Series of Poker. “The single biggest guarantee in the history of online poker is exactly what this once-in-a-lifetime event deserves.”
Players Choice Events
In what is surely a WSOP first, four 'Players Choice' events were announced, with players able to vote for which event they want to see for Events #47-50. Two events are down as being decided by 'Most Popular' with the other two down to 'Pros Vote' and 'Spin the Wheel'.
It will be interesting to see what further details are released about these events.
