WPT Summer Festival

We knew WPT Global online poker room would shock the industry after it opened its doors just a few months ago. During this short time, they have:

Announced the first NFT club
Recruited Doyle Brunson to their ambassador roster
Held a massive welcome event with $100,000 added

Now they will motivate all players to play during the summer with a new tournament series:

WPT Global will host the Summer Festival from July 20 to August 22. The schedule includes 50 tournaments with several headliners and a massive $1M GTD Main Event.

The full schedule of the event is yet to be announced, but we do know the following:

Buy-ins from $1 to $2,000
50 events during one month
Champion Trophies for the winners of all headline (main and side) events
$1 Million GTD Main Event for $330
Live stream on the final table of the $1-1 million event on August 22 via Twitch
NLH, PLO, and Short Deck events
Freerolls for all players ITM
$500 satellites for the $15M GTD WPT World Championship (live event to be played in Las Vegas in December)

All tournament winners will get a seat for the Tournament of Champions freeroll.

From the schedule, we highlight:

All flights are capped to 12,000 players, except the "$1 for 1 million", capped to 5,000
The top 15% of players (13% for the "$1 for 1 million") will move to the next day

The $1 for 1 million honors its name a promises to become a massive tournament. Flights will be played every Wednesday and Sunday from July 20 until August 22, when the final table kicks off. Of course, WPT Global won't be able to collect 1 million entries, hence this marketing strategy will result in an important overlay for players.
