WSOP Super Circuit KINGS Heads to Rozvadov
The first of the two newly announced festivals, WSOP Super Circuit KINGS, will return the WSOP Circuit spotlight to one of the most established poker destinations in Europe.
King's Casino has a long and celebrated history with the World Series of Poker and has become synonymous with some of the largest and most prestigious poker festivals ever held on the continent. Located in Rozvadov, near the Czech Republic's border with Germany, King's has hosted numerous WSOP Circuit festivals over the years and has welcomed thousands of players from across Europe and beyond.
King's Resort also became the home of WSOP Europe in 2017, ushering in a new era for the prestigious bracelet series. Over the years, WSOP Europe at King's produced record-breaking Main Events, massive prize pools, and championship victories for some of the game's biggest names, cementing the venue's place as one of the most important homes of live tournament poker outside Las Vegas.
While WSOP Europe moved to Prague in 2026, King’s Casino remained a primary sponsor in the series, ushering in a new chapter for WSOP Europe and now helping expand the WSOP Super Circuit.
Now, the partnership enters its next chapter with WSOP Super Circuit KINGS.
The centerpiece of the festival will be the €3,000 buy-in WSOP Super Circuit KINGS Main Event, which comes with a massive €2,000,000 guaranteed prize pool. The guarantee is expected to attract players from throughout Europe and around the world as they compete for one of the series' most coveted WSOP Circuit rings and a share of one of the largest prize pools on the European poker calendar.
With King's Casino's experience hosting major international festivals and its deep connection to the WSOP brand, WSOP Super Circuit KINGS is positioned to deliver another major chapter in Rozvadov's storied poker history.

WSOP Super Circuit LATAM Debuts at Punta Cana
The WSOP Super Circuit expansion will continue in early 2027 when the brand travels to the Caribbean for the inaugural WSOP Super Circuit LATAM at Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Punta Cana.
Running from January 24 through February 2, 2027, the festival represents an important milestone for both the WSOP and the Hard Rock property, which will be making its WSOP debut.
The arrival of the World Series of Poker in Punta Cana will give players throughout Latin America, the Caribbean, North America, and beyond a new destination for high-stakes tournament poker. With an international travel destination serving as the backdrop, WSOP Super Circuit LATAM will bring the prestige of the WSOP Circuit to a region with a growing and passionate poker community.
The festival's centerpiece will be the $3,500 buy-in WSOP Super Circuit LATAM Main Event, featuring a $2,000,000 guaranteed prize pool.
The seven-figure guarantee immediately establishes the Main Event as one of the most significant tournaments on the regional poker calendar and provides a major incentive for players to travel to the Dominican Republic for the inaugural festival.
For Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Punta Cana, the series will mark the property's first time hosting an official WSOP event. The debut creates an opportunity to introduce the global WSOP audience to one of the Caribbean's premier resort destinations while expanding the reach of the Circuit brand into new markets.
With its combination of a major guaranteed prize pool, an international location, and the prestige of the WSOP Circuit, WSOP Super Circuit LATAM is expected to become a significant addition to the worldwide tournament schedule.
Building on the Success of WSOP Super Circuit Canada
The announcement of the new Super Circuit festivals comes as the inaugural WSOP Super Circuit Canada at Playground in Kahnawake, Quebec, continues to demonstrate the expanded format's potential.
Running from August 26 through September 12, 2026, the series features 18 WSOP Circuit ring events and more than CA$14 million in advertised guarantees, highlighted by a historic CA$5,000 buy-in Main Event with a CA$10 million guarantee.
The festival has already delivered major record-breaking moments for Canadian poker. The WSOP Super Circuit Canada Main Event has established a new benchmark as the largest poker tournament in Canadian history, while the series has also produced the largest flight ever for a CA$5,000-or-more buy-in event.
Those achievements have reinforced the appetite for major WSOP-branded festivals and demonstrated how the Super Circuit concept can create events capable of attracting players on an unprecedented scale.
The success has extended beyond the Main Event. Early in the series, Playground's CA$500 Mini Main Event drew 3,484 entries, setting another major venue record and highlighting the broad appeal of a festival designed to offer opportunities across a range of buy-in levels.
As the WSOP continues to grow the Super Circuit brand, the momentum generated in Canada provides a blueprint for what lies ahead. WSOP Super Circuit KINGS in Rozvadov and WSOP Super Circuit LATAM in Punta Cana represent the next steps in that expansion, combining established poker destinations with new markets, massive guarantees, and the prestige of WSOP Circuit gold rings.
With Europe and Latin America now set to host major Super Circuit festivals, the WSOP is continuing to build on the success of its newest international initiatives while giving players around the world more opportunities to compete on poker's biggest stages.
