Welcome to PokerNews, the official media partner of the 2025 World Series of Poker and home of live updates from all bracelet events.

The Series gets underway today with Event #1: $1,000 Mystery Millions No-Limit Hold'em here at Horseshoe and Paris, Las Vegas. Live coverage of this event will start from Day 2.

Tournament officials have confirmed that once again, the top bounty and the first-place prize are guaranteed to be $1,000,000.

The first of five starting flights gets underway at 12 p.m. local time with late registration open for 12 levels. There will be 20-minute breaks every four levels, with a 75-minute dinner break at the end of Level 12 (~6:40 p.m.). Players are allowed one reentry per flight.

The starting stack is 40,000 chips with the plan for Day 1a to play 22 30-minute levels. Payouts start on Day 1, and for the surviving players, Day 2 resumes on Sunday, June 1, at 11 a.m.

Last year's event saw 18,409 entries generate a $16,199,920 prize pool. The winner was Australian Malcolm Trayner who defeated Carson Richards heads-up to take home $1,000,000.

“Overwhelmed,” Trayner said after his momentous win. “I just I can't believe what's happened. A lot of happiness as well.”

The event also saw two $1,000,000 bounties up for grabs, with Valentyn Shabelnyk the first player to pull the grand prize bounty early on Day 2. He was followed by DJ Buckley shortly after.

The World Series of Poker (WSOP) has officially launched its new WSOP+ app for the 2025 series in Las Vegas, promising to dramatically improve the player experience by reducing wait times and streamlining event access.

Available now for iOS and Android, the WSOP+ app allows players to pre-register for live events, skip lengthy registration lines, and receive real-time updates about seat availability through a virtual queue and push notifications. The app also becomes a central hub for all WSOP essentials, including event schedules, structure sheets, chip counts, rules, daily results, prize payouts, and more.

"WSOP+ will further elevate the WSOP experience for all of our players," said Ty Stewart, CEO of the World Series of Poker. "Not only can our community now save time and effort by registering in advance for their favorite tournaments, but the app will also showcase WSOP content and all of the important event information that participants are eager to have at their fingertips!"
