LATAM poker is getting a very nice boost this spring, with WSOP Circuit Montevideo 2026 heading to Casino Carrasco in Uruguay from May 18 to 25. GGPoker is the exclusive online qualifier for the stop, which means players can start chasing a seat through satellites and freerolls starting March 30.

This one looks like a fun stop, too. The series is set to feature 12 official WSOP Circuit gold ring events, side tournaments, VIP activities, and international media coverage, while every ring winner will also receive a $5,000 package to the WSOP Circuit Championship at WSOP Paradise in the Bahamas.

What Makes WSOPC Montevideo 2026 Special

For many players, Uruguay remains an exotic poker frontier, making WSOP Montevideo 2026 and GGPoker's qualifiers a rare chance to play for gold rings in a stunning new destination.

WSOP Circuit Montevideo is a unique opportunity for players from all over Latin America to make their way to Uruguay and enjoy a world-class poker experience in an extraordinary setting. -Juan Carreño, Head of Spanish Latam at GGPoker.

Veterans will of course welcome the return to stunning Montevideo and "The Palace in the Sand" Casino Carrasco, where gold rings and a WSOP Bahamas package make this trip even more worth chasing.

How You Can Qualify for WSOP Montevideo 2026 on GGPoker

The online qualification window runs from March 30 through May 10, and the good news is that the buy-in ladder starts low and even free. 

Players can get involved through $5 daily satellites during the week, a Saturday freeroll that awards five $215 satellite tickets, $33 package qualifiers, a $22 Sunday last-chance event, and a $215 Weekly Final to WSOPC Montevideo $1,700 Main Event. That makes the path feel pretty approachable. 

You do not need to jump straight into a big buy-in, and the freeroll plus low-cost satellites give casual players a realistic shot at building toward the trip without spending much upfront.
