THE WSOP CIRCUIT RETURNS TO SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA
San Diego (December 2, 2014) - The World Series of Poker Circuit returns to the west coast this week, as Harrah’s Resort Southern California (formerly Harrah’s Rincon) will host the next stop on the Circuit. Action begins with the first ring event on Thursday, December 4 and continues until the conclusion of the Main Event on Monday, December 15.

Harrah’s Southern California has become a traditional venue for the WSOP Circuit. It hosted the second-ever Circuit event back in 2005, and is one of the few properties to have hosted the Circuit every season since its inception.

As with most stops this year, Harrah’s Southern California offers 12 rings in 12 days. In addition to the Main Event, highlights of this year’s schedule include a 6-Max tournament (Event #6) and a PLO event (Event #7), both of which start on Thursday, December 9.
