After the end of this year's WSOP, the organisers in Vegas surprised the whole world by revealing news. It is a festival called WSOP Paradise, which will take place for the first time this year in December in the Bahamas. Well, December means that this series will collide with the Prague EPT and also with the WPT Championship in Vegas, which we already discussed in a separate article.
And the fact that the Prague EPT will suffer the most out of these three festivals is also confirmed by the newly published schedule of the WSOP Paradise festival, which has already revealed the details of the entire event. This will take place between December 3rd and 14th, when 15 bracelet events with a total guarantee of more than 50 million dollars will be in play!
The entire series will be kicked off by the $1,500 Mystery Millions event, which will carry a massive $5,000,000 guarantee. The highlights of the event will then bring the most expensive $100k Ultra High Roller with a guarantee of 5 million, the $25,000 GGMillion$ High Roller with a guarantee of 10 million, but at the top of the list is of course the $5,000 Main Event guaranteeing $15 million.
"It's official, WSOP Paradise plans to deliver an unforgettable new winter series with such a packed schedule," said Ty Stewart, executive director of the World Series of Poker. "We can't wait for this poker paradise to kick off and look forward to crowning the first Main Event champion at Atlantis Paradise Island."
Not only prestigious bracelets or millions of dollars, but also online qualifications and satellites that promise the possibility of winning a dream trip for a minimal investment will be a huge attraction. Although there are no specific tournaments listed in the lobby yet, the organizers promise to send at least 1,000 qualifiers to this event, so you can expect a really wide variety of satellites with different buy-ins.
