The World Series of Poker (WSOP) has revealed thrilling details about its 2025 WSOP Paradise tournament series, setting the stage for an unforgettable winter of poker action. The highlight of the series will be the $60,000,000-guaranteed Super Main Event, marking the largest prize guarantee ever in the history of live poker tournaments. Taking place at the iconic Atlantis Paradise Island in the Bahamas from December 4 to December 18, the festival is expected to be a true paradise for poker enthusiasts.
This monumental event builds on the success of previous editions and is set to raise the stakes even higher. Hosted in collaboration with GGPoker, the world’s largest poker room, and Triton Poker, the renowned organizer of high-stakes tournaments, WSOP Paradise will once again feature an exceptional lineup of high roller and super high roller events. The tournament schedule has been meticulously curated by both WSOP and Triton to ensure a world-class experience for players of all levels.
The crown jewel: the $60 million Super Main Event:
The undisputed highlight of the 2025 WSOP Paradise series is the No Limit Hold’em Super Main Event Championship, which boasts a $25,000 buy-in and a record-breaking $60,000,000 prize guarantee. This figure is a staggering $10,000,000 higher than the 2024 event’s guarantee, underscoring WSOP’s commitment to creating one of the most prestigious poker events in the world. Last year’s event saw Yinan Zhou triumph over 1,977 players, claiming his first WSOP bracelet and an impressive $6 million prize.
“The success of last year’s Super Main Event with the largest-ever live tournament guarantee was a game-changer, and this year, we’re re-raising the stakes,” said Ty Stewart, CEO of WSOP. “We’re not just breaking records—we’re setting new standards for the poker world with a $60,000,000 guarantee and an expanded partnership with Triton Poker.”
While the Super Main Event takes center stage, WSOP Paradise 2025 will feature a wide array of other tournaments, catering to high-stakes players and enthusiasts alike. One of the standout events is the $2,500 buy-in WSOP Circuit Championship Mystery Bounty on December 4, which will be exclusively available to winners of WSOP Circuit rings from July 1 to December 2, with a special $5,000 Ticket to Paradise package as part of their prize.
Other tournament highlights include:
- Triton Pot Limit Omaha Main Event (Dec. 5): $100,000 buy-in
- Triton Invitational (Dec. 7): $250,000 buy-in, featuring a unique mix of business and entertainment figures alongside professional poker players
- Triton No Limit Hold’em Main Event (Dec. 9): $100,000 buy-in
- GGMillion$ (Dec. 15): $25,000 buy-in with a $10 million prize guarantee
In addition to these exciting events, players who qualify through satellite tournaments on GGPoker will have the chance to secure a $30,000 package for the Super Main Event. This package includes a $25,000 buy-in, discounted accommodation at the Atlantis Paradise Island Resort, and additional benefits like complimentary meals.
One of the most unique elements of this year’s tournament series is the special prize for the player who is eliminated on the bubble at the 2025 WSOP $10K Main Event in Las Vegas. That unlucky player will receive a $30,000 WSOP Paradise Super Main Event package, turning a moment of bad luck into a second opportunity for glory at one of poker’s biggest stages.
A stellar partnership with Triton Poker:
WSOP’s continued partnership with Triton Poker further enhances the allure of WSOP Paradise. Andy Wong, CEO of Triton Poker, shared his excitement: “We’re thrilled to return to WSOP Paradise and bring the Triton experience back to this incredible location. WSOP Paradise has become an exciting stop for us, and we’re proud to be part of it once again.”
The festival’s location at Atlantis Paradise Island adds to its appeal, offering players not only world-class poker action but also a luxurious setting in the Bahamas. Joe Brunini, Chief Gaming & Customer Development Officer at Atlantis Paradise Island, expressed his enthusiasm for the event, stating, “WSOP Paradise has quickly become one of the most sought-after events in the poker calendar. With record-breaking prize pools and the stunning backdrop of Atlantis, this tournament is truly one-of-a-kind.”
The 2025 edition of WSOP Paradise promises to continue the tradition of excellence, with even higher guarantees and more prestigious tournaments. As Ty Stewart noted in WSOP’s press release, “This year, we are raising the bar once again with the $60,000,000 guarantee and a new slate of signature events. We’re making poker history, and we couldn’t be more excited to bring the best poker experience to Paradise.”
