Get ready for a massive summer in the Baltics. Bringing the iconic branding and massive prize pools of the World Series of Poker to Estonia, the WSOP Circuit Tallinn 2026 will officially take over the capital city from July 24 through August 2. Featuring 12 highly sought-after ring events and a sprawling schedule of over 50 side tournaments, the 10-day festival is the ultimate battleground for players chasing tournament glory.

The Showpiece: A €1 Million Guaranteed Main Event

While side events in Pot-Limit Omaha, Mystery Bounty, and short-deck formats will keep the floor buzzing, the undisputed focal point of the series is the WSOP Circuit Main Event.

The tournament requires a €1,500 buy-in and guarantees a colossal €1,000,000 prize pool. To handle the massive field required to hit the guarantee, the operators utilize a multi-flight structure, giving players a chance to bag chips across several Day 1s before converging for a highly dramatic weekend conclusion.

The victor will walk away with life-changing money, an official WSOP Circuit Gold Ring, and a coveted ticket to the exclusive Tournament of Champions in the United States.
