The World Series of Poker ( WSOP ) bracelet is considered the most coveted non-monetary prize a poker player can win .

As the popularity of poker has increased during the 2000s , the number of events has likewise increased . In 2011 , 58 bracelets were awarded at the WSOP , seven at the World Series of Poker Europe ( WSOPE ) , and one to the WSOP National Circuit Champion .

Five additional bracelets were awarded for the first time in April 2013 at the inaugural World Series of Poker Asia-Pacific ( WSOP APAC ) in Melbourne , Australia .
