39th WSOP dates announced

Harrah's Entertainment has announced that the 39th annual World Series of Poker (WSOP) will take place at the Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas from May 30th to July 17th 2008.

The world's biggest poker tourney always attracts big names such as Phil Hellmuth, Roland De 'Big Bad' Wolfe and Dave 'Devilfish' Ulliot as well as a host of celebrity players such as Jennifer Tilly.

"The team is still hard at work on the schedule of events for next year, but we've received so many requests for the dates that we decided to announce them now," said Jeffrey Pollack, WSOP Commissioner.

"We'll actually open the WSOP tournament room the week of May 26th for two special events," said Geno Iafrate, vice president and assistant general manager of the Rio. "This 'soft opening' will give players a chance to register early and avoid the lines we had last year during opening weekend - our busiest time."
