It may be a couple of months out, but warmer weather is ahead and that means the start of yet another World Series of Poker.
There is perhaps extra excitement this year as 2022 is shaping up to be the first “normal” WSOP — live events during the traditional May through July period — in three years. Yeah, that hasn’t happened since 2019
While we wait for the cards to be dealt and bracelets to be awarded, we can tell you what we know right now about the upcoming 2022 WSOP, which will be held just over five months from the last WSOP.

Where is the WSOP 2022?
The 2022 WSOP will have a new home in Bally’s, which will mark the first time that the series will be held on the legendary Las Vegas strip (previous homes were Binions and the Rio). In addition to Bally’s, the nearby Paris Las Vegas will also host events during the 2022 WSOP Main.
Who can play in the 2022 WSOP?
Assuming there are no travel restrictions, the 2022 WSOP will be open to players from across the globe, who make the yearly trek to Las Vegas each summer.
Those hoping to play WSOP online events will be under a few more restrictions. As was the case in 2021, online events are expected to take place on WSOP.com for US players located in New Jersey, Nevada and Pennsylvania. Meanwhile, GGPoker will likely be home to online events for players outside of the U.S.
How can I watch WSOP 2022 live?
The WSOP 2022 will be broadcast in the same manner in which it was for 2021, which includes a combination of coverage from PokerGO and CBS Sports. PokerGO will take on the online streaming duties while broadcast coverage will be held through CBS Sports.
A live streaming schedule has been released with PokerGo announcing that 21 events including the WSOP Main Event will be streamed on the platform beginning on June 2nd.
A broadcast schedule will likely not be released until closer to the tournament, but in the press release announcing the schedule, the WSOP said that 18 different events would be televised with at least 15 hours of the WSOP Main Event broadcasted.
Where can I find the WSOP 2022 results?
Dozens of WSOP bracelets are expected to be given away as part of the WSOP 2022 results, possibly more than during the 2021 WSOP.
Poker fans can keep up with WSOP 2022 updates through this page as well as the official WSOP website. 2022 WSOP results will be posted there on a nearly hourly basis, especially for top tournaments such as the Main Event.
Will there be any COVID requirements for the 2022 WSOP?
Unlike last year, there will not be any requirements to have a vaccination or wear a mask during the 2022 World Series of Poker.
Is the 2022 WSOP hiring dealers?
Indeed, it seems as though the WSOP is in need of dealers for the 2022 WSOP and they are offering a pay increase to entice new dealers.
Dealers will be paid at least $12.50 an hour in starting pay plus a $100 bonus after completing the first shift. In addition, dealers will be paid a guaranteed $15-$20 per down (generally 20 to 60 minutes). Any additional dealer funds that are left over will be split among dealers based on the number of downs worked.
What events will Daniel Negreanu be playing?
Every year, poker fans eagerly wait for Daniel Negreanu to reveal the events he plans to play.
As of late February, Negreanu plans to keep really busy, indicating that he plans on playing 49 of the 88 events of the 2022 WSOP. Added together, the buy-ins of the events that Negreanu plans on entering total nearly $1 million.
Negreanu offered poker fans the chance to get in on his action with no markup, which sold out within days. But fans can look out for daily opportunities during the 2022 WSOP.
