Follow the Opening Day of the 2021 GGPoker WSOP Online at PokerNews
While players residing in Nevada and New Jersey were able to get the first crack in 2021 at WSOP gold with 33 bracelets on the line in July, the attention of bracelet hunters is now on GGPoker for players in the rest of the world for the remainder of the summer with another 33 bracelets up for grabs from Aug. 1 to Sept. 12.
Expect some of the biggest names in poker to participate for the next six-plus weeks including in today's WSOP Online Event #2: $1,111 Caesars Cares Charity Event.
This event is not only about the huge cash prizes on tap and a coveted WSOP gold bracelet to the winner but also is a way of players giving back. Instead of GGPoker charging rake in this event, each entry will consist of $1,000 heading into the prize pool along with a $111 donation Caesars Cares, a Nevada-based COVID-19 charity.
Today will also witness the first bracelet of the year awarded at GGPoker with Day 2 of the $1 Million guaranteed Event #1: $50 The Return NLH playing down to a winner.

The day will end the sooner of the action reaching a final table or 32 blind levels completed with the final day scheduled for Monday, Aug. 2 at 7 p.m. CEST (1 p.m. ET).
Last summer, Alek "astazz" Stasiak made a name for himself in the poker world after he topped a field of 2,323 entries to earn his first World Series of Poker title along with $343,204 top prize. Time will tell who will be the latest winner of this prestigious WSOP Event.
