There will be many people looking to travel to the 2008 World Series of Poker, so be sure to plan your trip to the Rio All-Suite Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada well in advance.

The 2008 World Series of Poker will run from May 30 to July 16 and there are 55 scheduled events from which to pick for your viewing pleasure.

The $10 000 No-Limit Texas Hold'em Main Event will begin on July 3 this year and runs for 13 days, while another major tournament is the five-day $50 000 H.O.R.S.E. Event, which begins on June 25.

The popularity of the World Series of Poker, however, does mean that you will need to do some careful pre-planning.

Early accommodation bookings will avoid stressful searches for hotels with rooms available. An early booking might also help you to avoid one of the trappings of the World Series of Poker – the inflated prices charged by Las Vegas hotels during major events in the city.
