Înregistrarea este simplă. Nu ai decât să descarci formularul de înregistrare de pe site-ul WSOP, să-l complectezi și să-l returnezi prin e-mail sau fax. Deoarece locurile sunt limitate, organizatorii recomandă ca înregistrările să se facă din timp. Organizatorii au mai comunicat că sălile online care acceptă jucătorii americani nu pot să înregistreze jucători la WSOP.
Printre sponsorii competiției găsim fabrica de bere Milwaukee's Bets Light, fabrica de băuturi energizante ALL IN, iar sponsorul principal al competiției este EverestPoker.
Rio All-Suite Hotel and Casino
