GGPoker, known globally as the largest online poker platform, has officially launched WSOP Express, an innovative tournament series that offers players a streamlined path to the world’s most prestigious live poker events, including the record-breaking WSOP Paradise in the Bahamas.
WSOP Express introduces a simplified multi-step qualification structure, making it easier than ever for players of all bankroll levels to win their way to high-profile events. With buy-ins starting as low as $0.50, even newcomers have a shot at poker glory.
WSOP Express Step Format:
-
Step 1: All-In or Fold (4-max Sit & Go) – $0.50 entry or Step 1 ticket | Win a Step 2 ticket
-
Step 2: Spin & Gold (6-max Sit & Go) – $2 entry or Step 2 ticket | Win Step 2–4 tickets or a WSOP Pass
-
Step 3: Turbo MTT – $10 entry or Step 3 ticket | Win a Step 4 ticket
-
Step 4: Standard MTT – $150 entry or Step 4 ticket | Win a Ring Pass or Bracelet Pass
Players can begin at any step or jump straight to the one that suits their preference.
High-Stakes Step Events:
-
Bracelet Step: $1,000 buy-in MTT | Prize: WSOP Bracelet Pass
-
Super Step: $2,500 buy-in MTT | Prize: Super Pass
Free WSOP Express tickets are also up for grabs through ongoing promotions, including cash game missions and leaderboard rewards.
Types of WSOP Express Passes:
-
$5,000 Ring Pass: Entry to a WSOP Super Circuit event plus travel expenses
-
$10,000 Bracelet Pass: Direct seat to elite $10,000 WSOP bracelet events, including the 2026 WSOP Main Event
-
$30,000 Super Pass: Full package for the WSOP Paradise Super Main Event, covering a $26K entry, premium accommodation at Atlantis Paradise Island, and more
A Historic Tournament Awaits: WSOP Paradise 2025
The WSOP Paradise Super Main Event, set for December 2025 in the Bahamas, comes with an unprecedented $60 million guaranteed prize pool, the largest live poker guarantee ever seen. With WSOP Express, players now have a real opportunity to qualify for this iconic tournament through an affordable and accessible system.
“WSOP Express is a game-changer. It gives every player—from beginner to pro—the opportunity to reach poker’s biggest stage. This initiative is all about turning poker dreams into reality,” said Sarne Lightman, GGPoker’s Managing Director.
