WPT Summer Festival
The WPT Summer Festival runs July 20 - August 22 with 50 tournaments, including a chance to turn just $1 into a share of at least $1 Million.
Play for a $1 buy-in any Wednesday and Friday during the series in one of the $1-for-$1-Milion flights for your shot at the $1 Million Guarantee prize pool. The final table of the $1-for-$1-Million streams live Aug. 22 on the WPT Twitch channel.
There’s tournament buy-ins from $1 to $2,000 during the series, with a wide variety of NLH, PLO and Short Deck events offered throughout the festival, including the $1 Million Guarantee $330 Main Event Aug. 12-22. There’s also $500 satellites to win seats in the $15 Million Guarantee WPT World Championship this December at the Wynn Las Vegas.
Every Summer Festival tournament winner earns a seat in the Tournament of Champions freeroll, offering a WPT World Championship seat to the top two finishers. Cash in any Summer Festival tournament and earn an entry in a separate freeroll with many WPTG Tournament ticket packages up for grabs.
