Win a Poker Trip to Cyprus or Florida by Playing on WPT Global
Table Of Contents
A World Poker Tour (WPT) title is one of the most prestigious accomplishments in poker, and there are ways to achieve that dream without breaking the bank.
There are several opportunities for players to earn tickets and passports to WPT festivals by playing on WPT Global, a popular online poker offering featuring daily tournaments, cash games and satellites.
In a recent guide, WPT Global broke down all of the key events on the WPT horizon and ways that players can win packages to events like the Dublin Poker Festival in Ireland, Prime Cyprus in North Cyprus and Rolling Thunder in California.
Travel the World and Win a WPT Title
There have already been a handful of stops this year where packages were awarded on WPT Global or ClubWPT. Those include for the WPT Seminole Lucky Hearts Poker Open Championship at Hard Rock Hollywood in Florida, the WPT Global Winter Classic in Canada and the WPT Prime Cambodia Championship.
For example, WPT ran a Golden Ticket promotion for the Winter Classic festival, where players could win $220 Golden Ticket satellites on WPT Global. There's a sweet bonus in there: If the satellite winner were to win the Main Event, WPT Global would add $120,000 CAD to the winner's payout.
Here's how the promotion worked:
- Step satellites inside WPT Global start from around $5.
- You can qualify into OnLive Day 1s for both the Main Event and the Mystery Bounty.
- If you bag online, your stack moves into the corresponding live Day at Playground.
Looking on the horizon, the to WPT Prime Cyprus Championship will place at Chamada Prestige Hotel & Spa in North Cyprus from March 5-9, culminated with a $1,100 buy-in championship event with a $1 million guarantee.
WPT Global players can use Passport Dollars to pay for WPT Prime Cyprus seats, and they also have the option of putting Passport Dollars toward up to $2,000 in travel.
Further down the road is the WPT Rolling Thunder Championship at Thunder Valley Casino Resort from March 29-April 1. Players can qualify for the $3,500 championship event by playing on ClubWPT in eligible jurisdictions.
Winning packages to live stops on WPT Global is a great way for players to put themselves in the position to become the next WPT champion. The most recent WPT champion is 25-year-old poker pro Nicholas Seward, who took down the WPT Venetian Las Vegas Spring Championship for $418,700 as he defeated heads-up opponent Gregory Brown.
