GTO Wizard has been named the Official Poker Training Partner of the 2026 WSOP, with its Optimal Play graphic featured during live broadcasts. The partnership adds real-time strategic analysis and reflects the growing importance of GTO study in tournament poker.

The 2026 World Series of Poker has introduced a new collaboration that is highly visible across its live event coverage, with GTO Wizard becoming the Official Poker Training Partner of the series.

Viewers following the action from Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas have likely noticed GTO Wizard branding displayed across the newly introduced Mothership Stage. 

However, the partnership extends beyond on-site branding and has become a regular feature of the tournament broadcasts.

Throughout the 2026 WSOP live streams, GTO Wizard's "Optimal Play" graphic has been integrated into key hands. 

The feature provides real-time insight into the decisions available to players and indicates whether the action taken matches the game theory optimal, or GTO, preference for that situation.

The addition has become a consistent part of the summer broadcast schedule, giving audiences a clearer understanding of how frequently top professionals follow theoretical strategies and when they choose to move away from them.

The partnership also reflects the growing influence of GTO-based study methods in modern tournament poker. Solver-driven preparation has become deeply connected to high-level competition, making GTO concepts an important element in the training process for many serious players.

Commenting on the agreement, GTO Wizard's CEO emphasized the importance of partnering with the WSOP at a time when solver-based study has become a central part of elite tournament preparation. The statement also highlighted the value of bringing GTO Wizard analysis directly into the live viewing experience.

“Our partnership with the WSOP brings together the world's most iconic poker brand with the most advanced training technology, giving players everywhere the tools to compete at the highest level," a statement read.

"Personally, this one means a lot to me. The WSOP isn't just a tournament series, it's where poker history is made, and to be part of that story with our Optimal Play segment is something I'm incredibly proud of.”

As the 2026 WSOP continues, the integration of live strategic analysis and tournament coverage highlights the increasing role of advanced poker training technology within the game's biggest events.
