Overview
- The Super Main Event carries a $25,000 buy-in and a record $60 million guaranteed prize pool, setting a new high-water mark for live tournament guarantees.
- WSOP Paradise is scheduled for December 4–18 at Atlantis Paradise Island in the Bahamas, marking its third annual winter festival.
- GGPoker will run all Super Main Event satellites exclusively online, with winners earning $30,000 packages covering the buy-in, accommodation and meals.
- Triton Poker returns with an expanded high-roller roster, including $100,000 no-limit hold’em and pot-limit Omaha mains, a $250,000 invitational and the $25,000 GGMillion$ featuring a $10 million guarantee.
- Meeting the guarantee requires 2,400 entries to avoid an overlay, a significant step up from last year’s 1,978 entrants.
