WPT Global Warm Up Festival Online Poker Series Guarantees $2.5m

As the days lengthen and summer beacons, the action at online poker site WPT Global is heating-up with the WPT Global Warm Up Festival. However environmentalists need not worry, this metaphorical rise in temperature won’t affect global warming.

Scheduled from April 19-27 and with $2.5m in guarantees, the Global Warm Up festival sets the stage for WPT Global’s upcoming Spring Festival.

Warm Up Festival Championship Events

These key events run throughout the festival using a phase/flighted event format.

$300,000 Guaranteed $220 Championship: Spanning 17 starting flights, this event culminates on April 27, offering daily opportunities to qualify for the grand finale.
$22 Mini Championship: With a $80,000 guaranteed prize pool, this championship also provides 14 starting flights, leading up to the decisive Day 2 on April 27.

High Roller and Progressive Knockout (PKO) Events

$200,000 Guaranteed $2,100 High Roller PKO: A big buy-in event for those seeking higher stakes action.
$100,000 Guaranteed Crazy Sunday $110 PKO: For fans of Progressive Knockouts, players win bounties for eliminating players. The more players that someone knocks out, the higher the bounty on their own head!

Satellites into Global Warm Up Festival Events

Starting from April 14, daily satellites with entry fees as low as $5.50 make it accessible for everyone to shoot for a major win, transforming a modest buy-in into a potentially huge payout.

Additional Perks and Prizes

Participation in any tournament during the festival contributes points towards the WPT Global Player of the Year. This prestigious accolade comes with a $250,000 prize pool, and the overall winner will take home $100,000 in cash, online prizes, and seats to four WPT Main Tour Championships in 2025.
