2026 WSOP Paradise: 20 Bracelets, $120M Guaranteed
The Super Main Event is gone, but a $120M series guarantee keeps WSOP Paradise relevant in 2026.
The 2026 WSOP Paradise schedule is live, offering 20 gold bracelets and a $120 million series guarantee — but the Super Main Event has been dropped from the lineup, according to Poker.org.
Why It Matters
The removal of the Super Main Event is the sharpest signal for serious tournament players evaluating whether to book travel. As of August 2026, the $120M guarantee still ranks this among the largest guaranteed prize pools in live poker history, which sustains the event's appeal for recreational and mid-stakes players. However, high-roller regulars who targeted the Super Main as their headline score will need to reassess their ROI on the trip. The bracelet count holding at 20 events means prize equity is spread across a manageable schedule rather than diluted across dozens of satellites and side events.
Context
WSOP Paradise debuted as the series' offshore flagship, running outside Las Vegas to attract an international player pool and sidestep certain U.S. jurisdictional constraints. The Super Main Event had previously served as the marquee draw, commanding the largest buy-ins and the biggest audience. Its absence this cycle, first reported by Poker.org, represents a meaningful structural change to the series format.
What's Next
Players can review the full tournament schedule now at Poker.org. Registration windows and buy-in details for all 20 bracelet events are the next critical data points to watch as the series date approaches.
