Attention Poker Players!

For the uninitiated traveler, this time of year at gaming resort towns there's a buzz in the air that can mean only one thing: WSOP. In otherwords, The World Series of Poker.

The WSOP this year is the 39th annual poker tournament of all poker tournaments, and all levels of players are having their daydreams of winning 'the big one'. How big? Well in 2006 the winner, Jamie Gold, out-lasted 8773 other players to win a $12 million prize. Not bad for playing poker.

Every year in May, and this year's no exception, the big push gets underway for hopeful players to make it onto the final table. This year's big day for the WSOP is a little different than in years past. This year the WSOP of poker is actually taking a four month break right before the final table play, which will be held on November 9th and 10th. From May to July there are a whole host of different poker games players can join, and if they make it to a certain level, land a seat in the main event which runs from July 3rd to July 14th.

For the full schedule of events check here.

Also different this year is a very large charity poker event to benefit the Darfur region in Sudan, Africa. While charity poker games have long since been a way to raise big money for worthy events, this year's event, Ante Up For Africa, is looking to be the biggest poker charity event of all time.

For more information on Ante Up For Africa check here.

So if you ever had the daydream of being the big winner of the largest poker tournament of the planet, or just like to play some slot machines and watch high-rollers bet tens of thousands of dollars a hand at poker, May through July is the time to hit such gambling meccas as Las Vegas and Atlantic City.
