WSOP Circuit ring

Also: circuit ring, ring event

The gold ring awarded to winners of events on the WSOP Circuit, the year-round tour that visits casinos in the United States and, as the International Circuit, venues from Playground in Canada to King's in Rozvadov. A ring is a step below a bracelet in prestige but the same idea.

Example. The WSOP Circuit at Playground in November awards eighteen rings.
