Everything you need to know about playing the WSOP online bracelet series across Nevada, Michigan, New Jersey and Pennsylvania. We also cover the WSOP online series that runs for international players in the late summer over on GGPoker and GGPoker Ontario.
Last updated: October 23, 2026


The WSOP Online Bracelet Series gives poker players the opportunity to compete for official World Series of Poker gold bracelets without attending a live tournament in Las Vegas. Each year, the WSOP hosts online bracelet events for players in the United States, Ontario, and international markets.
The 2026 WSOP Online Fall Bracelet Series is currently underway in the US, running from September 27 to November 10. The schedule features 33 bracelet-awarding events with buy-ins ranging from $333 to $3,200. Players in Nevada, New Jersey, Michigan, and Pennsylvania compete together through the shared WSOP Online player pool.
Earlier in the year, the US summer series awarded 30 bracelets and generated approximately $24.5 million in prize money. The international edition on GGPoker and a corresponding series on GGPoker Ontario also concluded in September, offering another 33 bracelet events.
This guide covers the 2026 WSOP Online schedules, tournament results, eligible states, international events, and online qualification opportunities.
The WSOP Online Bracelet Series is the online component of the World Series of Poker, the world’s most prestigious poker tournament festival.
Like the live WSOP, online bracelet tournaments award official WSOP gold bracelets to their winners. Players compete remotely through approved online poker platforms rather than at physical casino tables.
The WSOP generally offers multiple online bracelet series throughout the year:
US players must be physically located in an eligible state to participate in WSOP Online tournaments. International and Ontario players must use the appropriate GGPoker platform for their jurisdiction.
The 2026 WSOP Online Fall Bracelet Series runs from September 27 through November 10, with 33 gold bracelets available to players in Nevada, New Jersey, Michigan, and Pennsylvania.
All four states participate in the same shared player pool, allowing players to compete against one another regardless of which eligible state they are physically located in.
The fifth edition of the fall series maintains the 33-bracelet format of previous years while offering a slightly lower average buy-in than the 2025 schedule.
The complete schedule was announced in September, with buy-ins ranging from $333 to $3,200.
The series also features several Mystery Bounty tournaments, including events with six-figure guaranteed prize pools.
For more information about the announcement, see our coverage of the 2026 WSOP Fall Online Bracelet Series.
The schedule includes No-Limit Hold’em, Pot-Limit Omaha, six-max tournaments, Mystery Bounty events, and championship tournaments.
Highlights include the $1,000 Online Championship on November 1 and the $3,200 High Roller Championship on November 8.
The following is the announced schedule for all 33 bracelet events. Times are listed in Pacific Time, as published in the original schedule. Players should verify start times in the WSOP Online client, particularly around daylight saving time changes.

The $250 Mystery Bounty event on November 2 is the final day of a multi-flight tournament. Its buy-in is therefore lower than the $333 minimum advertised for the regular bracelet event schedule.
Tournament dates, starting times, and structures are subject to change. Players should consult the WSOP Online tournament lobby for the latest information.
Mystery Bounty tournaments are a major feature of the 2026 fall schedule, with combined guarantees of $2.2 million across the designated events.
These tournaments award standard prize money based on finishing position alongside randomly assigned bounty prizes for eliminating opponents during the bounty stage.
The largest advertised Mystery Bounty guarantee is $350,000 for the $1,000 Mystery Bounty Championship held on October 18.
Other highlighted events include:
The schedule provides a mix of lower-buy-in tournaments and higher-stakes championship events, with several Mystery Bounty formats offering additional opportunities for players to compete for WSOP bracelets.
The 2026 WSOP Online summer series took place from May 30 through July 14, running alongside the live World Series of Poker in Las Vegas.
The schedule featured 30 bracelet-awarding events available to players across the four-state WSOP Online network.
All told, the series generated approximately $24.5 million in prize money, down from the nearly $30 million awarded during the 2025 summer edition.
There were 43,263 entries across the series, with eight tournaments generating prize pools exceeding $1 million.
The largest field came in the $250 Mystery Bounty event, which attracted 5,185 entries and generated a prize pool exceeding $1.1 million.

The international 2026 WSOP Online Bracelet Series ran from August 16 through September 29, with 33 gold bracelets awarded through GGPoker.
The series marked the seventh edition of the international WSOP Online partnership and featured a wide variety of tournaments, including No-Limit Hold’em, Pot-Limit Omaha, bounty formats, and high-stakes championships.
The schedule included a $5,000 Main Event with a $25 million guarantee, alongside a $10,000 GGMillion$ High Rollers event that concluded the series.
The international edition also featured approximately $5 million in additional promotions and giveaways.
A corresponding series was available to eligible Ontario players through GGPoker Ontario, which operates separately from GGPoker’s international player pool.
The international 2026 series awarded approximately $130.4 million across its 33 bracelet events, with 199,471 entries recorded in those tournaments.
Including side events, the broader festival generated more than $345 million in prize money across over 3 million entries.
Brazilian players enjoyed a particularly successful series, collecting seven bracelets and approximately $6.2 million in winnings across bracelet events.
The final bracelet was awarded in the $10,000 GGMillion$ High Rollers tournament, which attracted 1,754 entries and generated a $17,013,800 prize pool.
Spain’s Sergio Aido won the event, collecting $2,228,762 and a WSOP gold bracelet.
The final table also featured Matheus Machado, Alex Foxen, Niklas Astedt, and Ole Schemion, among other prominent tournament professionals.
The $5,000 WSOP Online Main Event was one of the largest tournaments on the international schedule, offering a $25 million guaranteed prize pool.
The event featured multiple starting flights and a final stage in September, giving players several opportunities to qualify and advance.
As with previous editions, the Main Event formed the centerpiece of the international series, while the surrounding schedule included lower-buy-in tournaments and specialized formats.
Ontario players can participate in corresponding online bracelet events through the regulated GGPoker Ontario platform.
Although the Ontario series runs alongside the international GGPoker schedule, the two markets operate separately.
This means Ontario players do not automatically compete against players on GGPoker’s international platform.
Players must use the version of GGPoker licensed for their jurisdiction and meet the applicable eligibility, identity verification, and geolocation requirements.
The platform available for WSOP Online bracelet tournaments depends on where a player is physically located.
| Location | Platform | Player Pool |
|---|---|---|
| Nevada | WSOP Online | Shared US pool |
| New Jersey | WSOP Online | Shared US pool |
| Michigan | WSOP Online | Shared US pool |
| Pennsylvania | WSOP Online | Shared US pool |
| Ontario | GGPoker Ontario | Ontario-regulated pool |
| Eligible international markets | GGPoker | International pool |
Players in the four participating US states compete together through WSOP Online’s interstate shared liquidity network.
The addition of Pennsylvania to the shared player pool in 2025 expanded the number of players eligible to participate in US online bracelet events.
Players do not need to be permanent residents of an eligible state, but they must be physically located in an authorized jurisdiction when playing.
WSOP Online uses geolocation and identity verification systems to enforce these requirements.
International players should confirm whether GGPoker is available in their country, as access and tournament eligibility vary by jurisdiction.
The WSOP Online Bracelet Series has become a regular part of the World Series of Poker calendar, with summer and fall editions in the US and international events hosted through GGPoker.
The 2025 season was particularly significant because it was the first summer series to combine players from Nevada, New Jersey, Michigan, and Pennsylvania in one shared US player pool.
The summer 2025 WSOP Online series ran from May 31 through July 15 and awarded 30 gold bracelets.
It generated $29,883,840 in prize money across 50,461 entries, with 11 tournaments producing prize pools of at least $1 million.
The series featured buy-ins ranging from $250 to $5,300 and included several hybrid events that began online before moving to live final tables.
One notable tournament was the $250 Mystery Bounty, which attracted 7,623 entries but was affected by technical problems that resulted in its cancellation.
Despite that disruption, the summer 2025 series generated larger aggregate prize pools and more entries than the 2026 summer edition.
The fall 2025 WSOP Online Bracelet Series ran from September 28 through November 11, offering 33 bracelets across the four-state US player pool.
Buy-ins ranged from $250 to $3,200, with six Mystery Bounty events featuring combined guarantees of $1.9 million.
The series also included special Sunday schedules with multiple bracelet events and promotional packages to WSOP Paradise for winners.
The 2025 international WSOP Online Bracelet Series ran from August 17 through September 30, with 33 bracelets awarded through GGPoker.
A corresponding series was available on GGPoker Ontario.
The schedule featured buy-ins from $100 to $25,000, including a $5,000 Main Event with a $25 million guarantee.
Each bracelet winner was also awarded a $30,000 WSOP Paradise Super Pass as part of the promotional structure.
For a full breakdown of that year’s schedule, see our 2025 WSOP Online bracelet schedule coverage.
Players do not always need to pay the full tournament buy-in to enter a WSOP Online bracelet event.
WSOP Online and GGPoker offer satellite tournaments that award seats to selected bracelet events, subject to the availability of qualifiers in each market.
These satellites can provide a lower-cost route into higher-buy-in tournaments, although qualifying still requires players to advance through the relevant tournament or satellite structure.
In the US, WSOP Online offers satellites and other qualification opportunities for eligible players in Nevada, New Jersey, Michigan, and Pennsylvania.
GGPoker provides online satellites for international players, while GGPoker Ontario operates qualification opportunities for eligible players within Ontario.
Some satellite promotions also award entries or packages to live WSOP events, including the $10,000 Main Event in Las Vegas.
In 2024, WSOP Online and GGPoker collectively qualified more than 1,000 players for the live WSOP Main Event.
WSOP Express is GGPoker’s multi-step satellite system, designed to give eligible players opportunities to qualify for WSOP bracelet events, Circuit tournaments, and WSOP Paradise.
The system uses a series of qualifying steps with different buy-ins and tournament formats.
Players can begin at lower-cost steps or enter higher steps directly, depending on the available tournament schedule.
The original WSOP Express structure included:
| Step | Satellite Format |
|---|---|
| Step 1 | $0.50 All-In or Fold 4-Max Sit & Go |
| Step 2 | $2 Spin & Gold 6-Max Sit & Go |
| Step 3 | $10 Turbo Tournaments |
| Step 4 | $150 Regular MTT awarding Ring or Bracelet Passes |
WSOP Express is primarily relevant to players on eligible GGPoker platforms outside the US WSOP Online network.
Players should consult the current GGPoker tournament lobby for available qualifiers, buy-ins, and prizes, as satellite structures can change.
For more information, see our complete WSOP Express player guide.
