The World Series of Poker (WSOP) began with a handful of players in the 1970s and evolved with the addition of Texas Hold’em and gold bracelets for winners. The WSOP Main Event buy-in was established at $10,000 in 1972, with subsequent growth in popularity driven by television and pivotal moments such as Chris Moneymaker’s 2003 victory. Harrah’s acquired WSOP in 2004, relocating events to the Rio, and eventually to Horseshoe and Paris on the Las Vegas Strip under Caesars Entertainment management.
