The recently launched WSOP.com is about to host its first-ever online poker tournament series. The WSOP.com Online Championships are being held from Oct. 25-Nov. 2, featuring nine events with $500K in added prizes.

The series kicks off with a $100K invitational freeroll tournament and wraps up with a $215 buy-in no-limit hold'em main event (Nov. 2) with $75K added to the prize pool. All nine events are no-limit hold'em, however, there are some format variants therein, including six-max, rebuy, and turbo events.

The winners of each event are also awarded a seat into an live, invitational, nine-handed tournament with a $100K prize pool. (That tournament will be played out at the Rio All Suites Casino and Hotel in Las Vegas.)
