WSOP Paradise 2025: Full Schedule Out Now, $60M Main Event Set for December
- WSOP Paradise 2025 runs Dec 4-18 at Bahamas' Atlantis Paradise Island.
- $60M guaranteed $25K Super Main Event, the series' headline.
- 15 bracelet events include buy-ins from $2.5K-$250K.
- GGPoker to send 1,000+ international qualifiers.
- Introducing $100K and $300K Paradise Player Packages.
- Event highlights: $2.5K Mystery Bounty, Triton's increased presence.
The World Series of Poker has officially revealed the full schedule for its 2025 Paradise edition, and it’s not pulling any punches. From December 4 to 18, poker returns to Atlantis Paradise Island in the Bahamas, headlined by a $25,000 Super Main Event carrying a record-breaking $60 million guarantee.
A total of 15 bracelet events are confirmed for this winter series, with buy-ins ranging from $2,500 to $250,000. Once again, WSOP Paradise will overlap with the WPT World Championship in Las Vegas — and it’s clear both series are looking to capture the high-stakes spotlight.
Negreanu Calls It “Bonkers” — Again
When the 2024 WSOP Paradise festival launched with a $50 million guaranteed Main Event, it raised a few eyebrows — especially when it overlaid. This year, the number’s gone up to $60 million, and Daniel Negreanu seems as stunned as anyone.
“This is absolutely insane,” he said in a video posted to social media, joking that last year’s $50M was already over the top. The GGPoker ambassador, who finished 8th in the 2025 WSOP Player of the Year race, also pointed to the new $2.5K Mystery Bounty opener and the growing Triton collaboration as major highlights.
Negreanu is expected to return to the Super Main Event after a rough run in 2024. That event was won by relatively unknown Chinese player Yinan Zhou for $6 million.

Triton now hosts six of the 15 bracelet events, up from two last year, marking an even stronger presence in WSOP’s high-stakes ecosystem.
