The WSOP Circuit returns to Texas Card House in Austin from September 10-21, featuring 50 events and over $4.1 million in guarantees. Highlighted by 18 gold ring events, the festival includes a $2 million guaranteed Main Event running September 17-21.

The World Series of Poker (WSOP) Circuit is heading back to Texas Card House in Austin, Texas, for a two-week festival scheduled from September 10-21. 

Following the historic success of its inaugural visit to the Lone Star State earlier this year, the circuit returns with an expanded schedule featuring over $4.1 million in total prize pool guarantees across 50 scheduled tournaments.

When the WSOP Circuit made its first-ever stop in Texas in May, it marked a major milestone for the regional poker scene. The inaugural festival centered around a $1,700 buy-in Main Event with a $1 million guarantee at the Texas Card House in Austin.

Player turnout far exceeded initial projections. The event drew a massive field of 1,709 entries, generating a prize pool exceeding $2.5 million. 

Ultimately, 191 players finished in the money, making it the largest poker prize pool in Texas history. That turnout established a clear demand for high-stakes circuit action in the region.

Building on the results from May, organizers have adjusted the upcoming schedule by doubling the Main Event guarantee. The headline $1,700 buy-in Main Event now carries a $2 million guarantee and will run from September 17-21.

While the Main Event accounts for nearly half of the festival's overall $4.1 million guaranteed funds, the remaining schedule includes extensive opportunities for players across multiple poker disciplines.

The two-week series features 18 official WSOP Circuit gold ring events, catering to both No-Limit Hold'em players and mixed-game enthusiasts.
