WPT Global is the place to be in early January if one of your New Year's resolutions was to play online poker for big money in 2024 because the $4 million WPT Winter Festival is in full swing. The massive series shuffled up and dealt on Christmas Eve, meaning more than 80 WPT Global players have already become poker champions, but the WPT Winter Festival runs through to January 14, giving you ample opportunities to get your name on the scoresheet.

Each of the remaining events is worthy of your time. However, four tournaments stand out from the crowd, mainly due to their juicy guaranteed prize pools.
Event #2 is the Mini Winter Main Event. It costs $22 to enter each of the remaining flights, and the guarantee is set at $40,000. The other three massive tournaments have six-figure prize pools on offer.
Check out the $220 buy-in, $400,000 guaranteed #3 Winter Main Event if you want to give your bankroll a serious boost during the early stages of 2024. Event #69 is the online edition of the ever-popular WPT Prime. It commands a $1,060 buy-in, but guarantees not a cent less than $350,000 will be dished out to those WPT Global players finishing inside the money places.
The largest buy-in is reserved for Event #130, the WPT Championship. You'll need to part company with $3,500 to enter this huge tournament, but you'll get to play for a share of a guaranteed $400,000. In addition, whoever takes down the WPT Championship will have their name engraved in the world-famous Mike Sexton WPT Champions Cup!
Three special promotions run alongside the exciting WPT Winter Festival, each giving you the chance to win potentially life-changing prizes.
First, triumph in any of the remaining WPT Winter Festival events to receive a ticket to the Champion of Champions freeroll at the conclusion of the series. This freeroll pays the final eight players prizes ranging from a $220 WPT Passport Qualifier Ticket to a WPT Passport package valued at a cool $12,400.
Second, navigate your way to any WPT Winter Festival final table, and you'll be entered into the Second Chance Freeroll. Again, the top eight finishers win prizes, which include $55, $220, or $1,060 WPT Passport Qualifier tickets.
Last but certainly not least is the festival-long leaderboard. You earn previous leaderboard points for every WPT Winter Festival event you play, although finishing in the top six of those events grants you a points boost. The leaderboard points formula is: √(Buy-in x Entrants/Position) x Top 6 Bonus, where the multiplier for finishing in the top six is as follows:
1st – 1.5
2nd – 1.45
3rd – 1.4
4th – 1.35
5th – 1.3
6th – 1.25
The top 200 points earners during the season receive a prize from WPT Global. Those prizes start with a $10 Global Spins ticket, with the eventual winner banking a $12,400 WPT Passport package, giving them a shot at the big time in an upcoming live WPT event.
