PokerGO Reveals Livestreaming Schedule for WSOP 2024
It is official; the 2024 WSOP will be livestreamed. Some of it. Daily. More than 300 hours of the 2024 World Series of Poker. And PokerGO will do the honors again, as it has in past years.
Interestingly, it was PokerGO that issued the press release about the livestream coverage, not the World Series of Poker. And there is no mention of CBS Sports in the PokerGO release. In February, when the WSOP first announced the 2024 summer live tournament schedule, it did mention that “PokerGO will produce new WSOP episodes to air on CBS Sports, the exclusive domestic television home of the WSOP.” However, CBS has yet to issue any statement.
For now, and for fans of the WSOP as it happens, PokerGO will have it.
PokerGO Announcement
The lineup of coverage is much the same as in 2023. PokerGO will provide live coverage of the 2024 WSOP with daily broadcasts throughout the summer, starting on May 30 with Event 1.
PokerGO won’t be covering every event or every final table, as that would be an overwhelming task with 99 events on the schedule. It will stream final tables of more than 30 bracelet events, though, including the Poker Players Championship, Ladies Championship, $250K Super High Roller, $25K Heads-Up Championship, NLHE/PLO Double Board Bomb Pot, Monster Stack, Mystery Millions, Millionaire Maker, Seniors High Roller, and Colossus.
Of course, PokerGO will provide daily coverage of the WSOP Main Event as well. That will run July 3-17, complete with live broadcasts from each starting day and on through the playdown to the final table. There will be no action for players or broadcasters on July 15, which is the day off before the final table, but there will then be live coverage of both days of final table play until one player becomes the 2024 WSOP World Champion.
Those who want to watch the coverage will need to purchase an annual PokerGO subscription. In the leadup to the series, there is a promo code “WSOP24” to use that will discount the price by $20, setting the full-year price at a promo price of $79.99.

Information Forthcoming?
As noted, there is no mention of the CBS Sports component in the press release, so it is unclear as to whether poker fans can watch any action on the CBS Sports platform.
There is also no information as to the commentators for the action. It appears likely that Jeff Platt will be doing interviews from the tournament floor, as in the past, but it is unclear as to who will be in the booth.
