WORLD SERIES OF POKER® ADDS TWO STARTING FLIGHTS FOR 2021 MAIN EVENT

The 52nd annual World Series of Poker® (WSOP®) has added two Day 1 starting flights for the 2021 Main Event. The additional starts have been slated in response to the easing of international travel restrictions, allowing more opportunity for fully vaccinated international participants to enter without extending the tournament or impacting current participants schedules.
International participation is a key component to the WSOP experience. In 2019, players from 118 countries participated in the World Series of Poker. Beginning with Australian Joe Hachem’s triumph in the 2005 Main Event, seven of the past 16 Main Event Champions have been international players.
Added flights are:
- Monday, Nov. 8, Day 1E, beginning at 11 am
- Tuesday, Nov. 9, Day 1F, beginning at 12 noon
Additionally, registration now closes at 3:40 pm on Wednesday, Nov. 10.
“The Main Event is the World Championship of poker and we want players from around the world to have a chance to compete for the title in 2021,” said Ty Stewart, Executive Director, World Series of Poker. “We are thrilled with this creative solution to add flights allowing international players the chance to play without extending the duration of the event or asking any player to change their plans.”
The updated schedule can be found at WSOP.com/tournaments
Mega Satellites have also been extended through the morning of November 10th to allow more opportunities for participants to win their seat into the championship.
All participants are still required to show proof that they are fully vaccinated against COVID-19 one time, upon first registration, to become eligible to participate in WSOP.
The WSOP will make use of CLEAR’s free mobile app and Health Pass feature. Participants who successfully add their proof of full vaccination through CLEAR’s Health Pass may go directly to the registration cage tellers within the Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino Convention Center. WSOP will also provide an on-site center to verify alternate documentation including physical vaccination cards, and state or country-specific health passes.
To be considered “fully vaccinated” against COVID-19, participants must receive their final vaccine dose 14 days prior to start date.

Curated for impact: How Infingame is redefining games aggregation

In an exclusive with Gaming Americas, Katsiaryna Shuhai, Business Development Manager at Infingame, explores how the supplier’s curated approach to casino content is redefining the games aggregation space.
Katsiaryna, can you begin by introducing yourself – what does your role at Infingame entail?
As the Business Development Manager at Infingame, I lead strategic partnerships and integrations with game studios and content providers. My role focuses on identifying standout gaming content that fits our platform’s vision, negotiating collaboration terms, and ensuring smooth onboarding.
With a background in advertising, I bring a strong focus on relationship-building, open communication and a personalised approach to each partner. I believe that genuine connections and tailored solutions are key to driving successful, long-term collaborations.
Infingame has recently integrated with innovative game studios, including TaDa Gaming and Popiplay. What factors influenced your decision to partner with these two studios in particular? How have they impacted your partners’ engagement and retention across Latin America?
Our decision to partner with TaDa Gaming and Popiplay was driven by each studio’s ability to deliver innovative, high-performing content that resonates with players across our key markets, including Latin America. Popiplay offers energetic, entertainment-led slots, while TaDa brings a diverse mix of popular formats such as crash and fishing games.
We’re confident that these integrations will help our partners boost player engagement and retention, particularly in Brazil, Mexico, and Colombia. Both studios align perfectly with our goal of delivering meaningful and localised content.
With 16,000+ games from 200+ providers available via Infingame’s platform, how do you ensure that new titles don’t just add volume but deliver real value to your operators?
While our platform boasts a vast library of games, we prioritise quality over quantity. It’s important to deliver content that we know players will enjoy, rather than just sheer volume.
When adding new content to our platform, each new title undergoes a rigorous evaluation process to ensure it meets our standards for player engagement, technical performance and market relevance. By focusing on curated content that aligns with operator needs and player preferences, we ensure that every addition enhances the overall value proposition for our partners.
Infingame is now taking a much more curated approach to game studio integrations. What sparked this change in strategy?
The shift towards a more curated approach stems from our commitment to delivering tailored, high-quality content that meets the specific needs of our operators and players. We want to make sure that the games on our platform are suited to local player behaviours, technical requirements and localised to each individual market.
As the iGaming industry continues to evolve, and more markets begin to embrace gambling regulation, it’s essential to focus on partnerships that offer strategic value, ensuring that each integration contributes meaningfully to our platform’s objectives and enhances the user experience.
With more selective onboarding of game providers, how does Infingame evaluate which studios to integrate with? What criteria do you consider?
We evaluate potential game studio partners using a rigorous set of criteria to ensure quality and compatibility with the Infingame platform. Key factors include the uniqueness and quality of game content, with an emphasis on standout mechanics, visuals and immersive experiences. Technical reliability is absolutely crucial – we assess API stability, integration efficiency, and overall tech performance to guarantee seamless operations.
We also consider the studio’s reputation and regulatory compliance across our target markets, ensuring that they meet legal standards and industry expectations. A strong track record of player engagement and retention is another important indicator of long-term value.
Additionally, we look for a clear commitment to innovation, including new formats or features that enhance the player experience. This selective onboarding approach helps us maintain a diverse, high-performing game portfolio that supports our operator partners and meets the evolving demands of players worldwide.
How will this refined integration strategy impact your existing and prospective partners, particularly in terms of content diversity and speed to market?
This refined integration strategy empowers us to deliver greater value to both existing and prospective partners by emphasising quality over quantity. By curating a portfolio of high-performing, innovative content, we ensure that our partners can offer games that genuinely resonate with their target audiences and stand out in a crowded marketplace.
Our focus on onboarding only top-tier, reliable studios means partners benefit from diverse and engaging content that drives player retention and growth. Additionally, by streamlining technical integration and reducing operational friction, we can accelerate speed to market, enabling our partners to launch new titles more efficiently and capitalise on emerging trends.
This agility is key to maintaining a competitive edge. Ultimately, our strategy is designed to foster long-term success for our partners by delivering not just more games – but the right games, faster.
Finally, what’s next for Infingame? Are there any upcoming partnerships, features, or innovations that you can give us a sneak peek of?
Looking ahead, Infingame is committed to expanding its portfolio through strategic partnerships with studios that deliver innovative, high-impact content. Our focus remains on curating games that not only entertain but also enhance player retention.
At the same time, we’re investing in new technologies and platform features – such as advanced tournament mechanics, real-time engagement tools, and personalised player experiences – to help our partners stay ahead of industry trends.
These enhancements are designed to drive deeper engagement, increase revenue potential, and strengthen the overall value we bring to our operator network as a trusted, forward-thinking iGaming aggregator.
