WSOP Europe to take place in Berlin in 2015

The World Series of Poker Europe (WSOPE) location and schedule has recently been announced. The series will take place between October 8 - 24 at the Spielbank Berlin casino in Berlin with 10 bracelet events.

The WSOPE has been hosted by France since 2011 with the event taking place twice in Cannes and once in Enghien les Bains, and WSOP Executive Director Ty Stewart has high hopes for the new location:

"As home country to our reigning Player of the Year and 2011 World Champion, we look forward to discovering new names ready to perform on poker's biggest stage," he said in a press release. "Berlin became a logical choice city for WSOP Europe given its proximity to all of Europe, the experienced management team at Spielbank, and the gap of time since a major poker tournament has come to the city. We believe this truly will be the best organized and contested WSOP Europe ever."

There are going to be 10 bracelet events including a €550 Oktoberfest No Limit Hold'em tournament and a €550 PLO event.

The first event of the series is going to be the €2,200 Six-Handed No Limit Hold'em event and the last one will be a €25,600 High Roller and of course the main course will be the €10,450 Main Event, starting on the 18th.
