The CHF1,500 Main Event at the 2026 WSOP Circuit Liechtenstein kicks off today at 1 p.m. inside the Grand Casino Liechtenstein. The most anticipated event of the 13-day festival runs from March 5 to March 10 and features a CHF1,000,000 guaranteed prize pool, ensuring the eventual champion walks away with the largest first-place prize of the series, along with the coveted WSOP Circuit ring.
The tournament features five starting flights, with every entrant beginning with 50,000 chips. Late registration remains open through the end of Level 12 on each flight, and unlimited reentries are permitted.
All starting flights will play down to roughly 15 percent of the field, with all survivors already guaranteed a payout on Day 2. Players must successfully bag a stack to lock up a min-cash and their seat for Day 2.
