The latest WSOP Winter Circuit online tournament series will take place on GGPoker from December 4 and, this year, there are 18 championship events and $150 million in guaranteed prize money.
The 2022/2023 WSOP Winter Circuit will feature a mixture of championship tournaments, satellites, and side events. In addition to cash prizes and Circuit rings, players can win a seat in the 2023 WSOP Million Dollar Freeroll in Las Vegas.
The schedule also contains a $10 million guaranteed main event, the winner of which will be invited to join GGPoker’s Team Champions.
Cash, rings, and prizes up for grabs in WSOP Winter Circuit series
The first event of the series is the Big 50 Bounty Million$. Players can buy in for $50 and play their way into the December 4 final session where one player will win the lion’s share of a prize pool worth at least $1 million.
Next on the schedule is a special WSOP Winter Circuit edition of GGPoker’s Super Million$. The $10,300 tournament has a $5 million guarantee and the winner gets a seat in next year’s WSOP Million Dollar Freeroll.
In fact, that’s true for all WSOP Winter Circuit winners. Anyone who finishes on top in one of the 18 ring events will earn a spot in the 2023 freeroll.
The championship tournaments will be flanked by a series of side events and satellites. All in all, there will be WSOP Winter Circuit action until January 9. That means players have plenty of prizes to shoot for over the holiday season and into the New Year.

GGPoker’s online WSOP Winter Circuit series will give those who aren’t traveling to Las Vegas for the WPT World Championship a way to play for seven-figure prize pools in December. Not only that, the series is a chance for all players to win a coveted Circuit ring and, potentially, a place on Team GGPoker.
The end of 2022 and start of 2023 are set to be busy periods for poker players. In addition to the WSOP Winter Circuit series and WPT World Championship in Las Vegas, PokerStars’ Caribbean Adventure gets 2023 underway in style.
The series returns to Baha Mar Resort in the Bahamas after a prolonged hiatus due to COVID-19 restrictions. Among the events on offer is the $25K PokerStars Players NL Hold’em Championship. Between that event and the pre-Christmas festivities on GGPoker, poker players have more than $150 million in guaranteed prize money to shoot for over the next few weeks.
