The World Series of Poker unveiled its fall domestic online bracelet schedule on Tuesday. Players will compete for 33 online bracelets, beginning Sept. 28 and running through Nov. 11.
The schedule length matches the 33 online bracelets being awarded internationally on GGPoker. That series runs through Sept. 29, giving players a chance to head back to the U.S. and theoretically compete for more than 60 online bracelets if they wish.
“With more than $10 million in guarantees, the 2025 WSOP Online fall domestic schedule promises something for every type of poker player,” said Danielle Barille, vice president of online poker at Caesars Digital. “With four jurisdictions contributing to the fall player pool for the first time ever, the stage is set for the world’s best poker players to compete in a thrilling run of high-stakes action as they chase coveted gold bracelets.”
PokerScout counted $1.9 million in posted guarantees on the schedule flyer, and the tournament lobbies available on WSOP.com don’t have guarantees attached to any additional events. The WSOP clarified to PokerScout that the $10 million figure includes online WSOP Circuit events and WSOP Online Championships running concurrently with the 33-event bracelet schedule.
First WSOP Online To Include Four States
Thanks to Pennsylvania’s joining the shared online poker liquidity pool, this marks the first online-only bracelet series that includes players from four states: Michigan, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Nevada. Last year’s domestic WSOP online awarded 33 bracelets to the MI/NJ/NV players and an additional four to PA players.
The Pennsylvania prize pools naturally paled in comparison, topping out at $15,335 for a first-place winner. Most of the players who won bracelets in the shared liquidity pool earned more than double that amount.
Sharing liquidity with Pennsylvania has proven a major boost for WSOP. Along with BetMGM, WSOP has overtaken PokerStars for the lead in the regulated U.S. poker space.
An online bracelet series is likely to nudge WSOP.com into a solo lead during the coming months, whereas BetMGM leads when there are no special events going on at WSOP.
Key Info, Events In 2025 WSOP Online
Schedule highlights of the 2025 WSOP online include a $500,000 guaranteed Mystery Bounty event on Oct. 19, as well as the $1,000 No-Limit Hold’em Championship on Nov. 2.
There are also a pair of $3,200 high rollers on opposite ends of the series (Oct. 7 and Nov. 9). That price point represents a notable step back for the WSOP after last year’s $5,300 No-Limit Hold’em High Roller wound up getting cancelled due to lack of player interest.
Interestingly, the WSOP has only attached guarantees to various mystery bounties. They’re spread throughout the series, including one for Pot-Limit Omaha players.
The WSOP has also brought back the $250 multi-flight Mystery Bounty format. That event caused a major headache for the operator and players alike this summer when technical difficulties forced a cancellation on Day 2. Starting flights for this one begin Oct. 30, and the WSOP will hope it has ironed those issues out.
Finally, the WSOP is adding an additional carrot for bracelet winners in the series. Any player who wins an online bracelet (or an online WSOP Circuit ring) will receive a $5,000 WSOP Paradise package. That will cover hotel accommodation in the Bahamas and entry into a $2,500 bracelet event on Dec. 4.
