The World Poker Tour is heading back to the Venetian in Las Vegas next month for a major tournament series, headlined by the $5,000 WPT Venetian Las Vegas Fall Championship. The event guarantees a prize pool of at least $2,000,000 and offers the winner a coveted spot in the WPT Champions Club.
The Venetian has hosted strong WPT turnouts in recent seasons. This past summer, Nico Betbese topped a field of 1,153 entrants to claim $706,960, while Nicholas Seward won $418,700 in February after taking down the WPT Venetian Las Vegas Spring Championship.
The upcoming Fall series begins Oct. 28 and runs through Nov. 15, featuring a packed daily schedule of tournaments. Among the highlights is a $1,100 No-Limit Hold’em event with a $500,000 guarantee, set to launch Oct. 29.
The centerpiece $5,000 Fall Championship will span four days starting Nov. 5, with three separate Day 1 starting flights running through Nov. 7. Players may enter one or multiple flights before advancing.
Those who survive will return for Day 2 on Nov. 8, followed by Day 3 on Nov. 9 and the final table on Nov. 10, which will be broadcast live on PokerGO.
Following the Venetian stop, the WPT shifts its attention to the WPT World Championship at Wynn Las Vegas, beginning Nov. 27. That season finale will include the $1,100 WPT Prime Championship, the $400 Super Gold Million with a $3 million guarantee, and the marquee $10,400 WPT World Championship closing out the year.
