The 2025 World Series of Poker Paradise $25,000 super main event already features an unprecedented $60 million guarantee, the largest in poker history. That should make for a massive multi-million-dollar top prize, as last year’s winner, Yinan Zhou, earned $6 million when the guarantee sat at $50 million.
Now the eventual champion, and plenty of other players who make the money, could walk away with additional cash bonuses on top of their winnings via the Paradise Parlay’ promotion. Eligible WSOP Paradise super main event players will be eligible to earn an additional $25,000 for making the money, a bonus $100,000 for a final-table showing, and $250,000 for capturing the title.
These bonuses are not cumulative, which means that an eligible player can only collect one of these three levels of payouts. For example, if a ‘Paradise Parlay’ player were to finish sixth, they would earn an additional $100,000 on top of their windfall from the prize pool, not $125,000. The $25,000 bonus for cashing would be bumped up to $100,000 for making the final table, but the two bonuses would not be added together.
In order to qualify for this promotion, a player will need to meet at least one of the following criteria:
- They cashed at least seven times in live bracelet events held at the 2025 WSOP in Las Vegas (cashes made at this festival will not count towards this total)
- They cashed in the 2025 WSOP main event in Las Vegas
- They won a WSOP bracelet during the 2025 calendar year, including in WSOP Europe and WSOP Online events
“The super main event parlay offers thousands of players potentially millions of extra reasons to join us in Paradise – just in case a $60 million guarantee wasn’t enough!” said WSOP Chief Executive Officer Ty Stewart. “A $25,000 bonus for a min-cash in a multi-flight tournament is unheard of, and we’re excited to see how many players bet on themselves and join us at Atlantis for the first time this December.”
The super main event will run from Dec. 10-15 at Atlantis Resort & Casino Paradise Island in The Bahamas. The festival features a total of 15 gold bracelet events from Dec. 4-18, with buy-ins ranging from $2,500 to $250,000.
Select WSOPP Events Added To PokerGO Tour Schedule
It was also recently announced that six of the WSOPP bracelet events will now award PokerGO Tour points. Among those half dozen qualifying tournaments is the super main event. This will give players more opportunities to try to qualify for the PGT $1,000,000 Championship freeroll at the PokerGO Studio in Las Vegas.
The PGT press release notes that, “Players can leverage these events to move up the PGT leaderboard, reach the top 40 qualifying position, or improve their starting stack for the season-ending PGT $1,000,000 Championship.”
The six events set to award PGT points are:
- Event #4: $50,000 High Roller Turbo NLH
- Event #7: $10,000 Super PLOSSUS PLO
- Event #11: $25,000 Super Main Event NLH
- Event #12: $10,000 8-Game Mix 6-Handed
- Event #13: $50,000 High Roller PLO
- Event #14: $25,000 GGMillion$ NLH
The PGT $1,000,000 Championship kicks off on Jan. 12, 2026. Last year, Jeremy Ausmus emerged victorious, capping off his PGT Player of the Year-winning run in style. Ausmus earned $500,000 as the last player standing in the massive freeroll and another $50,000 bonus that came with the PGT POY honors.
