Week 2 Kicks Off in the PokerNews Deepstack Challenge
As Week 2 of the PokerNews Daily Deepstack Challenge gets underway at the 2025 World Series of Poker, players have another shot at racking up leaderboard points and claiming their seat in the $600 PokerNews Deepstack Championship.
The action continues daily at 11:30 a.m., where players can jump into the $200, $250, or $400 deepstack tournaments and start earning points toward this week’s leaderboard. The top 10 point earners from June 3–9 will once again receive complimentary seats to the Championship, making every hand matter.
With Week 1 in the books, the pressure is on to climb the ranks. Whether you're grinding every day or making a single deep run, all it takes is one big result to land in the Top 10.
Special Rewards for Final Tablists & Winners
Beyond leaderboard points, every final tablist earns a limited edition PokerNews card protector, and winners receive a unique champion’s version to commemorate their run. These memorabilia items won’t be available anywhere else—so they’re as exclusive as the WSOP bracelets being handed out across the hall.
How to Join
Just show up to the daily 11:30 a.m. Deepstack events at Horseshoe and Paris, Las Vegas. Play hard, go deep, and check the leaderboard to track your progress. Results are updated regularly so you can stay locked in on the race.
