Online poker's WPT Global is sponsoring the upcoming WPT Prime Taiwan festival, and it is running an Asia-exclusive promotion to celebrate. The WPT Prime Taiwan festival runs from January 2-7, 2027, but the WPT Global promotion begins today.
The Asia MTT Super Package Leaderboard runs from October 19 through to December 20. It is exclusive to players whose WPT Global accounts are registered in Asia, who will compete to win one of 30 WPT Prime Taiwan packages, each worth $1,600.
The top 30 leaderboard finishers will receive a $1,100 WPT Prime Taiwan Main Event entry plus $500 credited to their WPT Global account to go towards travel and accommodation expenses.
Anyone who wins one of the 30 WPT Prime Taiwan packages, or secures their $1,100 seat via the WPT Global satellites, becomes eligible for exclusive Black Card benefits. They include $17,500 in Last Longer prizes, bubble protection, and an iPhone reward for the eligible top 18 Main Event finishers.
In addition to the main Asia MTT Super Package Leaderboard, WPT Global is running nine weekly leaderboards that award $10,000 in WPT Prime tickets. Finish in the top 91 places on these weekly leaderboards, and you'll find a $110 satellite ticket land in your WPT Global account.
The top 100 finishers in the weekly leaderboards receive Super Package Leaderboard points. You earn leaderboard points by competing in eligible WPT Global tournaments.
