best place i would recommend, would be any casino within your area..or maybe there is a poker club or something like that in your area that has meetings you could try that out as well…i would also suggest getting together with some friends and playing home games, either a cash game or tournament style. but since your looking for tournaments, the casinos would be a good place to start, considering a lot of casinos hold daily poker tournaments.

huh?

Get any chips you want. Even the cheap plastic ones. Whites are worth 1, Red = 5, Blue = 10.

You make the rules beforehand, and write them down and make sure every table has a copy.

Question by sooners83: Why is the WSOP main event final table played in November?
Why is the WSOP main event final table played in November? More than 65 days after the day it gets down to 9? Is it going to be live on TV or something?

Best answer:

Answer by TheDarkLord
ESPN wanted them to do it, so they can show all the other event from that year. So that when the time comes for the November 9 to play ESPN would have caught up with them.

Basically, so espn can show the Main Event final table just days after it happens.
