The 2026 WSOP Online Bracelet series features 30 events and $7 million in guarantees from May 30 to July 14. With hybrid live finals and Main Event satellites, it offers players in regulated U.S. states a premier summer poker experience.

The official 2026 WSOP Online Bracelet schedule has arrived, promising 30 coveted gold bracelet events and a massive $7 million in total guaranteed prize pools. This summer series is set to provide a high-intensity experience for players across regulated U.S. markets.

Running from May 30 through July 14, the series caters to a wide range of bankrolls with buy-ins starting at $250 and reaching $5,300. 

Key highlights of the summer include the fan-favorite $1.5M GTD Mystery Bounty, the multi-flight COLOSSUS, and several marquee tournaments that combine digital speed with the prestige of a live setting.

Innovative Hybrid Format Brings Final Tables to Las Vegas

A standout feature for 2026 is the return of the hybrid tournament structure. In this format, players begin their journey at the virtual tables but conclude their quest for glory at a live final table in Las Vegas.
The three events designated for this prestigious hybrid treatment are:
  • Event #12: NL Hold’em High Roller ($3,200 buy-in)
  • Event #16: NL Hold’em High Roller 6-Max Championship ($5,300 buy-in)
  • Event #20: NL Hold’em High Roller ($3,200 buy-in)

This crossover format ensures that the biggest winners of the online series get to experience the bright lights and broadcast excitement typically reserved for the live summer series.

Secure a Gold Bracelet From the Comfort of Home

The 2026 series is available to poker enthusiasts located in Nevada, New Jersey, Michigan, and Pennsylvania. These players can compete for official hardware and massive payouts without needing to step foot in a casino until the final table.

For those dreaming of the $10,000 WSOP Main Event, the schedule provides a direct and affordable pathway. Two "25 Seat Scramble" satellites are scheduled for June 28 and June 30. 

With a buy-in of just $215, each satellite guarantees 25 seats into the world championship of poker, making it a high-value target for recreational and pro players alike.

To further fuel the competition, the WSOP has added $50,000 in extra prizes to the 2026 WSOP Online Bracelet Leaderboard, rewarding the most consistent performers throughout the summer.

A Consistent Structure With Proven Success

The 2026 schedule maintains the 30-event format that proved successful in 2025. That previous series saw world-class talent like Jonathan Little, Adrian Mateos, and Darren Elias add online bracelets to their resumes, proving that the digital arena is just as competitive as the live felt. Behind the scenes, the operational framework remains steady. 

Following the 2024 sale of WSOP intellectual property to NSUS Group (the parent company of GGPoker), Caesars Entertainment continues to manage and operate the WSOP Online platform in U.S. markets under a specialized licensing agreement. This partnership ensures a high-quality, regulated, and secure environment for all participants.

As per Caesars, the online series is crafted to run in tandem with the live Las Vegas events, offering a comprehensive poker ecosystem that meets the needs of the modern digital player.
