The World Poker Tour is celebrating its 20th anniversary by hosting the richest live guaranteed tournament prize pool in poker history.
The WPT World Championship No-limit Hold’em event will take place Dec. 12 through 20 at Wynn Las Vegas and features a massive $15 million guaranteed prize pool.
The $10,400 buy-in event is the culmination of the WPT’s championship festival that runs Dec. 1 to 20 at Wynn and includes more than a dozen tournaments.
“I think 20th anniversary to us is really a celebration of survival and all the people that made a difference,” World Poker Tour CEO Adam Pliska said. “It’s a celebration of the industry in many ways as well.”
