Last updated: March 3, 2025
The World Series of Poker Europe (WSOPE) is an extension of the main WSOP that takes place every summer in Las Vegas. It’s been happening every year since 2007, skipping only two years during this entire stretch.
WSOP Europe traditionally takes place in fall (Sep – Oct) and features a smaller schedule than the summer series. However, all event winners are awarded WSOP bracelets that count towards official bracelet totals.
For several years now, World Series of Poker Europe has been taking place at the King’s Casino in Rozvadov, Czech Republic. The casino became the official host of WSOP Europe in 2017 and the partnership has been quite successful.
Over the years, the number of WSOPE events has grown, from just three in 2007 up to 15, which has been the standard number for the past six years.

The 2025 WSOP Europe Main Event
The 2025 World Series of Poker Main Event takes place towards the end of the WSOPE festival, from Oct 3 – 8. The organizer set the guarantee at €6,000,000, expecting the tournament to attract a big crowd.
Back in 2024, 768 players joined the action, creating the prize pool of over €7.2 million and making it the second-biggest WSOP Europe Main Event. This year, World Series of Poker Europe will be looking to increase that number and perhaps even set the new record, which is currently held by the 2023 Main Event, which attracted 817 players.
WSOP Europe 2024 Highlights
The 2024 World Series of Poker Europe saw a solid turnout and some big action across the board. In addition to the Main Event, there were 14 other bracelet-awarding tournaments. The Main Event itself attracted 768 entries and the prize pool of €7.2 million.

WSOP Europe History
The World Series of Poker Europe was established in 2007. This was the first time in the series’ long history that it ventured outside of Las Vegas, announcing things to come.
The Empire Casino in London played host for the inaugural WSOP Europe, which featured only three bracelet-awarding events. One of these was the £10,000 Main Event and as luck would have it, that event was one by Annette Obrestad, a poker player from Norway who was only 18 years old at the time. Thus, she became the youngest WSOP bracelet winner in the history of the series.
Following the 2007 rollout, WSOP Europe became a regular feature, and for the next three years, it took place in London. After that, it moved to France for a couple of years.
When it comes to historic moments that marked the WSOPE, 2012 was one of the most important years. In 2012, the poker legend Phil Hellmuth took down the WSOP Europe Main Event, making him the only player to win both Main Events – in Las Vegas and Europe.
In 2014, the WSOP decided to introduce WSOP Asia-Pacific, which would rotate with WSOP Europe, so there were no 2014 and 2016 WSOPE events. The 2015 European series was held in Germany.
In 2017, King’s Casino in Rozvadov, the Czech Republic, became the official host for the WSOP Europe, and it has held this spot ever since. Over the years, the number of WSOP Europe events continued to increase, and these days, most WSOP Europe stops feature 15 bracelet-awarding events.
