How it works

  • Pick three players from our list of WSOP Paradise Event #1 players.
  • Your score is the total amount of prize money your three players win in the event.
  • Bounties are NOT included in your total. 
  • The team with the highest combined cash total wins a $30,000 package to the WSOP Paradise Main Event.

Entry details

  • Entry is free — you must be 21 years of age or older at the time of entry.

Deadline to pick or change your team

  • Thursday, December 4 at 11am ET.
  • You must be a registered PokerOrg member to play. It’s free to become an Org member. 
  • You can edit your team at any time until the deadline.

Choosing your team

  • Pick any three players from the official list (we’ll be updating it regularly as more names are confirmed, right up until the deadline).
  • Players are not guaranteed to play - pick at your own risk!
  • There are no budget limits.
  • Each player’s cash in Event #1 will count toward your score.
  • Players who don’t cash score $0.
  • Bounties are not included. 

Live leaderboard

  • As Event #1 progresses, we’ll update a live leaderboard showing real-time team standings.
  • The leaderboard will also show your maximum possible score. 
  • Once a player is eliminated, their final cash (or $0) will be locked in.
  • We’ll be on the floor at WSOP Paradise, bringing you all the major tourmament updates live from the floor. 

Prizes

  • 1st place: A $30,000 WSOP Paradise Super Main Event package
  • 2nd–10th place: PokerOrg merch bags

Tie-breaker

  • In the event of a tie for 1st place, the winner will be determined based on the answer to the tiebreaker question — the closest wins: “What will be the total number of entries in the 2025 WSOP Paradise Event: #1 – $2,500 WSOP Circuit Championship NLH Mystery Bounty?”
  • If winners are still tied, a random draw will decide who gets the package. 

Winner contact & claim rules

  • We will contact the potential winner via the contact info provided (email or phone).
  • The winner will have 24 hours to respond from the time of notification.
  • If we do not receive a response within that window, the prize will be offered to the next eligible team.
  • Any alternate winner will have 3 hours to respond, and failure to respond will result in forfeiture of the prize and selection of the next winner, and so on
  • It is your responsibility to ensure your contact details are accurate and that you can receive messages (including checking spam folders).

Fair play & entry rules

  • One entry per PokerOrg member.
  • Entries suspected of being created by bots or scripts will be disqualified.
  • We reserve the right to verify entries and disqualify any that violate the spirit of the competition.
  • By entering, you agree to allow PokerOrg to use your name, likeness, and team selection for promotional purposes.

REGINA CORTINA PHOTOGRAPHY

The first break of the day has come and gone in Day 1C of the $2,500 Circuit Championship Mystery Bounty, with the man who pulled the first-ever $1,000,000 WSOP Mystery Bounty envelope a couple of years ago, Matt Glantz, among the early leaders.

Glantz earned his seat in the event with a $400 Seniors event victory in Pompano Beach and has built a stack of 150,000, which is good for fourth overall behind early chip leader Donald Nguyen's 169,300.

Here's a look at the early leaderboard through three levels of play:

Top ten chip stacks:

  1. Donald Nguyen - 169,300
  2. Hyung Jung - 158,300
  3. Winston Downing - 150,000
  4. Matt Glantz - 150,000
  5. Matthew Miller - 145,000
  6. Marko Siou - 138,000
  7. Joel Salmeron - 132,000
  8. Jovana Keljacki - 130,400
  9. Benjamin Herndon - 129,000
  10. Rene Majed - 126,000

It took until 2 a.m. to get to the money and 3 a.m. to bag up for Day 2, but 66 players have moved on to Sunday's Day 2 of the $2,500 WSOP Circuit Championship Mystery Bounty event here at WSOP Paradise.

Leading the way last night were a pair of Germans in Quirin Heinz with 1,275,000 and Fabian Niederreiter with 1,245,000.

Those totals still sit a ways behind Day 1A leader Martin Zamani's 1,865,000 for the overall lead heading into Saturday's final starting flight at noon.

Also among the seven players to bag a seven-figure stack last night was superstar Viktor Blom as we look at the top ten from Day 1B:

Meanwhile, quite a few players battled for over 14 hours only to get their entry back plus $100 without advancing to Day 2 and will have to come back on Saturday to try a final time on Day 1C to earn the chance to pull bounties on Sunday.

Martin Kabrhel was among those players after losing a sizeable pot on the bubble to Colby Covington , who finished inside the top ten.
