What We Know So Far
At the conclusion of the WSOP 2024 in Las Vegas, it was announced that WSOP Paradise is headed back to The Bahamas this winter to become a must-visit poker stop for anyone looking for high stakes action. Road to Paradise online qualifiers are currently live on GGPoker and WSOP.
The series will run December 6 to 19, overlapping with the WPT Championship at the Wynn in Las Vegas which runs December 3 to 23.
We are thrilled to showcase the Triton Series in the Bahamas for the first time, marking a significant milestone in our journey
WSOP Paradise will hope to become the go-to, unmissable high roller event of the winter. It looks set to trump the WPT Championship, which in 2023 featured an iconic Main Event that guaranteed $40 million.
In their quest to do this, the WSOP have partnered with Triton Poker for the first time, a name synonymous with super high roller events that run around the globe.
New Partnership with Triton Poker
WSOP Paradise will be playing host to the Triton Millions event for the first time as part of the series.
The Triton Millions event will begin on December 7, where the field is split between invited players paired between poker pros and A list poker enthusiasts. Each pair of players will contribute $1 million to the prize pool.
“We are thrilled to showcase the Triton Series in the Bahamas for the first time, marking a significant milestone in our journey,” said Andy Wong, CEO of Triton Series via press release. “This event brings us closer to North America, expanding our reach and allowing more poker enthusiasts to experience our unrivaled high-stakes format.”
“Our partnership with GGPoker and WSOP further strengthens our commitment to delivering premier poker experiences,” he added. “Hosting at the iconic Atlantis resort is an honor, as we set new benchmarks for poker tournaments and elevate the excitement and prestige of our events”.
Super Main Event Largest Guarantee in History
Even more audaciously, WSOP have revamped their Main Event to a “Super Main Event” that will guarantee $50 million. The buy-in will sit at $25,000. It require 2000 players to avoid an overlay.
“This is one you can’t miss,” Daniel Negreanu, GGPoker Global Ambassador said via press release. “There were a lot of learnings from year one and everything is going to be bigger and better. A 50 million guarantee in the Bahamas! Are these guys crazy?”
The Super Main Event will be become the biggest guarantee for a single event in live poker history, unless the WPT Championship ups their $40 million guarantee Main Event as part of the WPT Championships. However, its worth noting the WPT Main Event usually comes with a buy-in of $10,400 buy in wheres the WSOP Paradise Super Main Event will be over double that.
“The action we saw during the WSOP summer series is a testament to the health of poker, particularly for high-roller tournaments,” said Ty Stewart, SVP & Executive Director of the WSOP. “Last year was no onetime gimmick. We’re thrilled GGPoker has reaffirmed their commitment to building WSOP Paradise through the biggest guarantee in poker history.”
WSOP Gold Bracelet Events
So far, we don’t know what the full schedule will be apart from that there will be 15 WSOP bracelet events. Last year the series also gave away 15 bracelets and debuted GGPoker’s OnLive format that blends online play with in-person competition — which is definitely something we could see again.
We do know that buy-ins will start for events at $2,500 and go up to $1,000,000 — so this is definitely a live series for those with bigger bankrolls.
WSOP Paradise Returns to The Atlantis
WSOP Paradise returns to the iconic Atlantis Paradise Island hotel and resort for a second year running.
“We are thrilled to welcome back WSOP Paradise players, guests, and fans for the second year to Atlantis Paradise Island, the entertainment capital of the Caribbean. This monumental tournament offers attendees the opportunity to experience Atlantis’ $150 million renovation, including the opulent Atlantis Casino, Bar Sol, The Royal Towers, and several new dining options. See you in Paradise!” said Joe Brunini, Chief Gaming and Customer Development Officer at Atlantis Paradise Island.
