What it means for players in the UK
The WSOP Circuit UK is a live event, so you play it in person at Dusk Till Dawn in Nottingham. Check the venue’s entry rules and the event’s terms before you travel.
If you want to warm up online, keep in mind how the rules work in Britain: sites that serve British players need a UK Gambling Commission license, and the rules apply to operators, not players. Our guide to real money poker in the UK explains what that means in practice.
Among our partner rooms, three accept UK players: ACR Poker (35% rakeback through us), CoinPoker (30%) and Guts (30%). These are international sites, so read the review before you sign up. If you open an account through the button in our ACR Poker review and message us on Telegram, we’ll register it under our deal, and rakeback is paid monthly. We don’t have a rakeback deal at GGPoker. You can compare the rooms in our list of the best online poker sites and estimate what you would get back with the rakeback calculator.
