WSOP Heading to New Las Vegas Venue

Rumours are already spreading that the World Series of Poker could be held in a new venue. According to the reports from Las Vegas, the Harrah’s casino and hotel group, who are owners of the World Series of Poker, are to sell the Rio. Although The property is making $85 million a year, Harrah’s are apparently considering selling the property because they are not happy with it’s location.

The likely new home of the WSOP would be at Ceasar’s Palace. This was actually been given consideration two years ago. However, the Harrah’s were keen to maximize occupancy rates during the series by keeping the event at Rio. At the moment, no official announcement has been made and it is unlikely that any plans will be made until after this year’s WSOP event.
