Gli eventi WSOP 2026

L'Evento #3: $500 WSOP Employees No-Limit Hold'em potrebbe essere uno dei primi eventi con numeri importanti, dato il costo accessibile. Ma non sono pochi gli eventi che strizzano l'occhio ai giocatori occasionali, dal momento che gli eventi a basso costo iniziano ad essere davvero molti.
Gli eventi low-buy in
Le WSOP 2026 continuano a rendere il poker competitivo accessibile a tutti. Tra gli eventi a basso costo spiccano l'Evento #3: $500 Employees Event, l'Evento #34: $500 COLOSSUS No-Limit Hold'em e l'Evento #88: $300 Gladiators of Poker, eventi con montepremi garantiti importanti a fronte di buy-in veramente ridotti. Curiosità anche per l'Evento #63: $1,000 Mystery Millions e per altri tornei deepstack accessibili. Insomma, ce n'è davvero per tutti i gusti. Inoltre, vi sono diversi eventi nuovi, tra cui il $550 Mini Mystery Millions come apertura della kermesse.
I tornei di maggiore successo
Tra i tornei più attesi e partecipati delle WSOP 2026 troviamo il Monster Stack, il Millionaire Maker e il COLOSSUS. Per ottimizzare la partecipazione, i flight di partenza per questi eventi sono programmati in giorni strategici. Inoltre, vi saranno una fitta serie di tornei satellite da disputarsi direttamente sul posto, che offriranno buy-in accessibili permettendo ai giocatori di qualificarsi per i tornei principali.
Main Event WSOP 2026
L’attesa maggiore è per il Main Event, evento #82, che inizierà il 2 luglio 2026 con un buy-in di $10,000. I giocatori riceveranno uno stack iniziale di 60,000 chip e giocheranno livelli da 120 minuti. Sono previsti quattro Day 1 (dal 2 al 5 luglio), con il Day 8 previsto per il 13 luglio, quando si formerà il tavolo finale. Dopo la vittoria di Michael "The Grinder" Mizrachi nel 2025 (che ha superato 9.735 giocatori e ha portato a casa $10,000,000), l’edizione 2026 promette emozioni altrettanto forti.

Dove si disputano le WSOP?
Le World Series of Poker 2026 si terranno presso l’Horseshoe Las Vegas e il Paris Las Vegas, due sedi iconiche sulla Strip. I tavoli finali e gli eventi in streaming si svolgeranno all’Horseshoe, mentre il ritiro dei premi avverrà al Paris, che offre anche un’ampia scelta gastronomica con ristoranti come Nobu, Bobby’s Burgers, The Bedford e Vanderpump à Paris.
L'albo d'oro del Main Event
Nonostante il nostro Dario Sammartino sia arrivato secondo nel 2019, manca ancora un italiano capace di vincere il braccialetto del Main Event. Dopo il trionfo di Michael "The Grinder" Mizrachi nel 2025, speriamo che il 2026 sia l’anno giusto! Ecco l'albo d'oro aggiornato:
| ANNO | PARTECIPANTI | CAMPIONE |
|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 9.735 | Michael Mizrachi - United States - $10,000,000 |
| 2024 | 10.112 | Jonathan Tamayo - United States - $10,000,000 |
| 2023 | 10.043 | Daniel Weinman - United States - $12,100,000 |
| 2022 | 8.663 | Espen Jorstad - Norway - $10,000,000 |
| 2021 | 6.550 | Koray Aldemir - Germany - $8,000,000 |
