The WPT Prime Championship, which smashed its $5 million guarantee, is set to pay out $9,379,900 to the 1,206 players who made it through to Day 2, with the eventual champion walking away with a $1,162,350.
But that’s not the only seven-figure prize up for grabs this week. The WPTWC is turning up the heat with the highly anticipated ClubWPT Gold $5M Invitational Freeroll. Running from December 13–15, this unprecedented event guarantees a life-changing $1,000,000 to its first-place winner.
With 2,000 exclusive seats distributed through qualifiers on ClubWPT Gold and special competitions, players have been eagerly chasing Golden Passports. Although qualifiers are now closed, there’s still hope! A limited number of Golden Passports remain up for grabs at the Wynn—so don’t miss your chance to claim one!
How to Win a Golden Passport—Your Last Chance!
If you’re ready to join the action, here’s what you need to do:
Head to the Wynn on Thursday, December 12 – Don’t wait! This is your final opportunity to get in and grab a Golden Passport to the $5M Invitational Freeroll.
Sign up for ClubWPT Gold – ClubWPT Gold is WPT’s new sweepstakes-based online poker platform. Becoming a member is your ticket to spinning the prize drum.
Spin the Prize Drum – Visit the Gold Corner at the Wynn and take your shot at pulling a Golden Passport. This is your moment to secure a seat in the $5,000,000 freeroll!
Register at the ClubWPT Gold VIP Lounge – If you've pulled a Golden Passport, don’t skip this step! If you don’t register after claiming your Golden Passport, you’ll lose your seat to the event.
Should you not pull the Golden Passport, there are still some prizes to be won like limited edition WPT chip sets, Wynn Field Club seats at Allegiant Stadium for the Dec. 16 Las Vegas Raiders game against the Atlanta Falcons, and entry to the ClubWPT Gold Cash Booth where players will have a chance to grab as much as $50,000 in cash.
Also among the drum prizes is the showstopping McLaren GTS sports car, valued at $240,000. However, only three jackpot envelopes were available for this which have all been claimed.
