Online poker players in Pennsylvania are currently enjoying some massive value at new market entrant WSOP PA , which has put on a very ambitious circuit series this week. With many guarantees missed, players are taking their share of some major overlay value.
The WSOP PA launch in Pennsylvania online poker has been accompanied by some major events as the operator went all out to try and seize the share of the new market. Shortly after opening its virtual doors, WSOP Pennsylvania announced the first-ever online World Series of Poker open to Pennsylvania players, awarding eight gold bracelets across the series.
Not long after, the room announced another: the opening of the WSOP PA Online Circuit , which kicked off on September 3 and will run through September 14.
It was another ambitious move by WSOP, as the series features 12 events in total and $630,000 in guaranteed prize money .
Generous prize pools and prestigious WSOPC rings were expected to attract players in large numbers, but so far turnout has been a mixed bag. Several completed events have featured significant overlays, providing great additional value for participating players.

Steep Buy-ins and Big Overlays
For its first WSOP PA Circuit Series, the room decided to go with a higher average buy-in. Out of a dozen events, five of them features buy-ins of $215, while the rest are in the $320 – $500 region. The operator also hosted the $1000 High Roller event on September 7.
Perhaps WSOP believed that with higher buy-ins, they would hit their guarantees easier, but the numbers so far are showing otherwise. The first four of them had an overlay, with three tournaments failing to meet the guarantee by around 10% .
