• Game: No-Limit Texas Hold'em
• Type: 6-handed Sit & Go (Top five Satellite finishers + 1 WPT® Ambassador.)

How Does It All Work?

On Saturday-Sunday, Oct 21-22, ClubWPT will spread six (6) individual Online Satellite tournaments (see schedule above) – with the top five (5) finishers of each winning an entry into a 6-handed Online Sit & Go Qualifier Final on Sunday, Oct 29 – an event in which they'll be playing against one of the six featured WPT® Ambassadors.

The top finisher of each Online Sit & Go Qualifier Final on Sunday, Oct 29 (not including its namesake WPT® Ambassador), will be awarded a $2,500 Passport, including an $1,100 buy-in seat to the WPT® Prime Championship running December 7-12, 2023 at Wynn Las Vegas, 4-night hotel stay, and a $500 cash travel stipend.

Once in Las Vegas, the six (6) ClubWPT qualifiers will each pair up with the WPT® Ambassador that they played against in their respective Online Sit & Go Qualifier Final, and compete in a Tag Team event on December 9, 2023 – against the rest five (5) teams.

The ClubWPT member whose team takes down the live Tag Team event, will be awarded a $10,400 buy-in seat to the WPT® World Championship running December 12-21, 2023.

For Example…

If you enter the Vince Van Patten Satellite on Saturday, Oct 21 @ 2:00 PM ET and finish in the top five – you will automatically be entered into the Vince Van Patten Online Sit & Go Qualifier Final on Sunday, Oct 29 @ 1:00 PM ET.

If you're the top finisher of that Online Sit & Go Qualifier Final, you will be awarded a $2,500 WPT® Prime Championship Passport – and be invited to enter the live Tag Team event at Wynn Las Vegas on December 9 – where you and Vince will be playing together against the rest five (5) teams.

And if you and Vince then emerge victorious – you will be awarded a $10,400 buy-in seat to the televised WPT® World Championship at Wynn Las Vegas – and the chance to play for a share of the unprecedented FORTY MILLION DOLLAR guaranteed prize pool.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will WPT® Ambassadors Play In The Satellites?

Each Online Satellite on Saturday-Sunday, Oct 21-22 has a designated WPT® Ambassador name to signify which Online Sit & Go Qualifier Final you will be entered to play on Sunday, Oct 29 should you finish in the top five (5). Each WPT® Ambassador will then host and play in their respective 6-handed Online Sit & Go Qualifier Final against the rest five (5) players of the field on Sunday, Oct 29.

NOTE: If a WPT® Ambassador wins their own Online Sit & Go Qualifier Final, the $2,500 Prime Championship Passport first prize and invitation to play in the live Tag Team event in Las Vegas, goes to the runner-up. Similarly, if you and your WPT® Ambassador partner win the live Tag Team event, the $10,400 buy-in WPT® World Championship seat will be awarded to the ClubWPT member.

What's A Tag Team Event And How Does It Work?

Each Sit & Go Qualifier will be paired up with their respective WPT® Ambassador Tag Team partner, and play against the rest five (5) teams. Each team designates one player to play for 20 minutes of action and then swaps with their respective partner.

Can I Qualify For More Than One Sit & Go Qualifier Final?

Although members are encouraged to play in as many Online Satellites as possible, they can only qualify and claim one (1) Online Sit & Go Qualifier Final seat. If a member plays in multiple satellites and end up qualifying for more than one (1) seat (meaning they finish in the top 5), the first Online Sit & Go Qualifier Final seat they qualified for will be the one they win – and then next player in line will be awarded the opportunity to play in the Online Sit & Go Qualifier Final on October 29, 2023.

Total Value Of The WPT® Ambassadors Tag Team Challenge Is $25,400 And Includes:
