Another satellite is on the horizon this coming Sunday, with WSOP planning additional qualifiers in the near future. As of now, no online satellite events have been scheduled for players in WSOP MI and WSOP PA.
This marks the second opportunity for US players to win their way to the exciting Bahamas event, following the successful Cash Games Countdown promotion last month, which spanned all four states, including Michigan and Pennsylvania.
This promotion rewarded cash game players who earned a minimum of 100 Wagering Points, granting them entry into a random drawing for the WSOP Paradise package with the same perks as those offered through online satellites.
WSOP’s New Winter Stop in the Bahamas
WSOP Paradise marks a historic occasion as the first-ever WSOP gold bracelet event in the Caribbean. Scheduled to take place from December 3rd to 14th at the stunning Atlantis Casino & Resort on Paradise Island in the Bahamas, this Caribbean stop boasts 15 bracelet events, including the headline-grabbing $15 million guaranteed Main Event.
Among the standout events is the Mystery Millions opening event, featuring a $1500 buy-in and a $5 million guaranteed prize pool. Additionally, players can look forward to the Mini Main Event, a compact version of the Main Event with a $1000 entry fee and a $1 million guarantee. Notably, there’s a 6-handed No-Limit Hold’em Event with a $1000 buy-in, promising another $1 million in prize money.
With its turbo bounty format, the fast-paced Closer guarantees an additional $1 million prize pool for a $2000 entry fee. The event lineup also includes several High Rollers, with the $10,000 buy-in Pot-Limit Omaha Championship standing out, offering a seven-figure prize pool guarantee.
Buy-ins for the series range from $800 to $100,000, with prize pool guarantees spanning from $1 million to a staggering $15 million.
WSOP Paradise will go head-to-head with the WPT World Championship at the Wynn Las Vegas and PokerStars’ EPT Prague, as all three events gear up for the holiday season.
WSOP’s international online partner, GGPoker, has committed to qualifying over 1000 players for this exciting new winter event, with online qualifiers already underway for the rest of the world, starting last week.
