GGPoker has released the full schedule for the 2025 WSOP Online bracelet series, confirming that the sixth international edition will run from August 17 to September 30. Much like last year, the series maintains its proven formula, offering 33 bracelet events with buy-ins ranging from $100 to $25,000 and a combined $63 million in guarantees across nine key tournaments.
Consistent Structure, Familiar Highlights
The 2025 schedule closely mirrors the 2024 lineup in event mix, buy-in distribution, and average buy-in of $2,968. Aside from a few events shifting slightly in the calendar and modest guarantee increases for select tournaments, the framework remains unchanged.
The $5,000 WSOP Online Main Event returns as the centerpiece, once again boasting a $25 million guaranteed prize pool. Last year’s edition generated nearly $30 million, leaving room for potential growth. Two additional tournaments carry eight-figure guarantees: the $215 Mystery Millions and the $10,300 GGMillion$ High Rollers, each offering $10 million.
Other returning flagship events include the Millionaire Maker, Big 500, The Closer, Mystery Millions, and the $500 Ladies Event. The COLOSSUS ($4M GTD) and PLOSSUS ($1M GTD) also make a comeback, alongside the $300 Gladiator of Poker, which sees its guarantee rise from $2.5 million to $3 million. The $500 Mini Main Event also increases to $4 million from last year’s $2.5 million.
The most affordable bracelet remains the $100 Flip & Go, guaranteeing $1 million. Roughly a third of the schedule is made up of multi-day events — 11 this year compared to 10 in 2024 — with many offering multiple Day 1 flights. The Main Event alone features 17 starting flights, including a turbo option.
Prize Pools and Promotions
While most bracelet events do not carry guarantees, the nine that do total $63 million, up from $61 million last year. Promotional incentives remain in place, including Continental Freerolls and country-specific leaderboard freerolls, with the overall promotional pool increased to $5 million.
A notable new addition is the Super Pass for each bracelet winner — the top-tier reward in the WSOP Express qualification system. Valued at $30,000, it includes entry into the $26,000 WSOP Paradise Super Main Event plus accommodation.
Proven Post-Vegas Tradition
The WSOP Online has been a GGPoker staple since 2020, when the pandemic forced the shift from live to online play. Since then, the festival has cemented its place as the premier post-Vegas WSOP event for international players.
The 2024 edition paid out $114 million across its 33 events, drawing over 153,000 entries and producing an average prize pool of $3.4 million per event. With a nearly identical schedule and strong historical performance, the 2025 series is set to deliver another high-stakes, high-volume festival for players worldwide.
For Ontario-based players, a localized WSOP Online series will run in parallel, featuring eight bracelet events.
