WSOP TV Schedule Released Featuring 13 Days of Main Event Coverage

2 min read
Fourteen days of streaming are on tap for the 2020 WSOP.

Poker Central and the World Series of Poker have released the televised schedule for the 2020 WSOP.

Thirteen days of live coverage are on tap for viewers around the world, and it will be Main Event only once again. In many respects, it's essentially identical to the 2019 TV offering, which also provided 14 days of Main Event coverage, from Day 1a on.

The WSOP will receive a little less shine on ESPN's main platform, as ESPN is slated to air only three broadcasts this time around after doing six last year. Only a portion of Day 1b, Day 2ab and the finale will air on ESPN.

Will the WSOP Be Streamed?

The streaming schedule for the 2020 WSOP has yet to be released at this time, but it's safe to say plenty of streamed content will be available for poker fans via PokerGO, Poker Central's streaming platform available for $10 per month or $99 for a whole year.

The ESPN presser stated that PokerGO will once again be offering a selection of bracelet events for streaming purposes, and the schedule would be released in due time. Keep an eye on this space for an updated streaming schedule when such schedule is made available.
