The WSOP International Circuit kicked off its 2018-2019 season at the ever-popular Playground Poker Club in Canada from Aug. 23 – Sept. 3, in partnership with partypoker LIVE, and drew some record-breaking numbers. The series wrapped up on Monday, when the final four rings of seven were awarded.
The $4,992,493 in prize money paid out exceeded the $4 million that was guaranteed, with the help of 8,169 total entries tallied across all events. Each of the seven ring events hit their guarantees, the highlights being the $1 million guaranteed $330 buy-in Colossus and the $2 million guaranteed $1,100 Main Event.
