Six-Week 2023 Wynn Summer Classic Will Have $28 Million in Guarantees

Wynn Summer Classic

Fresh off of a successful Wynn Millions festival that saw Michael Rossito winning the $3,500 buy-in Main Event for $604,637, the luxurious Las Vegas casino has released the schedule for this year's Wynn Summer Classic, which gets underway May 25 and runs through July 19.

The six-week festival, one of many great poker tournament offerings taking place in Las Vegas this summer alongside the 2023 World Series of Poker (WSOP), will have more than $28 million in guaranteed prize pools and will feature events like the World Poker Tour (WPT) Everyone for One Drop, a $10,500 buy-in event with a $10 million guarantee and the $111,000 buy-in WPT Alpha 8 for One Drop.

$28 Million in Guarantees

This year's Wynn Summer Classic will kick off on May 25 with a two-day $1,100 H.O.R.S.E. event with a $50,000 guarantee. Other mixed game tournaments will follow as the next events on the schedule are $1,100 Limit Omaha 8 with a $50,000 guarantee and $3,000 8 Game with a $150,000 guarantee.

But don't worry, there are plenty of No-Limit Hold'em events on the schedule as well. Some of the highlights include $1,100 No-Limit Hold’em, a four-starting flight event with a $1.5 million guarantee, as well as the three-day $3,500 No-Limit Hold'em with a $4 million guaranteed prize pool.

The Wynn is known for its dramatic and heartwarming Mystery Bounty events and this summer will be no different with the $2.5 million guaranteed $2,200 Mystery Bounty event and the later $1,600 Mystery Bounty with a $2 million guaranteed prize pool. Casino employees will also have a chance to get in on the bounty action with the $500 Casino Employee Mystery Bounty with a $100,000 guarantee.

The biggest draw of the series is the WPT EveryOne for One Drop which comes with a buy-in of $10,500 and a guarantee of $10 million. There will be three starting flights and the charity event will conclude with a live-streamed final table on July 14.

The second charity event will be the WPT Alpha8 for One Drop, a three-day $111,000 High Roller tournament that is the first Alpha8 tournament to take place since December 2015. The event starts on July 14 and there will be live-streamed coverage beginning on Day 2.
