28 October 2026 – 11 November 2026 · King's Resort, Rozvadov, Czech Republic · UK time
The World Series of Poker’s Super Circuit series opens at King’s Resort in Rozvadov, on the Czech side of the German border, on Wednesday 28 October and runs to Wednesday 11 November. It is 15 days, 18 WSOP Circuit ring events and about €5 million in guaranteed prize money, with 88 tournaments on the schedule once satellites are counted.
For European players it is the WSOP’s main autumn stop. WSOP Europe moved to Prague and to the spring this year, so this series now fills the autumn slot that WSOP Europe used to take at King’s.
The schedule that matters
The centrepiece is the €3,000 Main Event, with a €2,000,000 guarantee. It has three starting flights, each at 2pm local time on 5, 6 and 7 November, with Day 2 on 8 November and the final day on 11 November. Players start with 50,000 chips, levels last 60 minutes, and late registration stays open until the end of level 12.
Around it:
- Super Circuit Kick-off (€500, €100,000 guaranteed) opens the series on 28 October, alongside a Bounty Pot-Limit Omaha event.
- Mini Main Event (€1,000, €1,000,000 guaranteed) has flights from 29 to 31 October, with Day 2 on 1 November and the final on 2 November.
- Mystery Bounty (€700 plus a €300 bounty, €500,000 guaranteed) runs across the first days of November.
- Super Circuit Championship (€1,500, €500,000 guaranteed) has Day 1 flights on 8 and 9 November.
- King’s DreamMaker (€350, €300,000 guaranteed) has five flights, the last a turbo on 8 November.
King’s are also running €200 satellites into the Main Event, and the cheapest satellites on the schedule start at €70 for the Kick-off.
Why it matters
A WSOP Circuit ring is the tier of WSOP silverware below a bracelet. A €2 million guarantee on a €3,000 buy-in is large for a Circuit Main Event. €2 million divided by €3,000 is about 667 buy-ins, and the real number needed is higher once the house fee comes out of each one, so the size of the field across the three flights is the number to watch in the first week of November. If it falls short, the house adds the difference, which poker players call an overlay.
The Mini Main is the event most UK recreational players will look at. At €1,000 with a €1 million guarantee it has the same structure of multiple flights and a bigger field, finishing before the Main Event begins.
What looks the smart angle
There is no betting market on a poker festival like this, so there are no prices to quote. The angle is for players. As opinion: the multi-flight events reward patience with the schedule more than anything. Three Main Event flights mean three chances to reach Day 2, and where re-entry is allowed a player’s real cost can end up well above the headline €3,000. The €200 satellites are the cheaper way in for anyone whose bankroll does not stretch to a direct buy-in, and the Mini Main is the better-value test of the structure before committing to the big one.
Treat any view here as opinion, not advice. Tournament poker has a large element of variance, and no event is a way to earn money.
Elsewhere
The same fortnight has the WPT Fall Festival at the Venetian in Las Vegas from 28 October. In sport, Liverpool host Chelsea in the Carabao Cup on 28 October, the Breeders’ Cup is at Keeneland on 30 and 31 October, and the Paris Masters tennis runs from 2 November.
A poker offer for the fortnight online
If you are following Rozvadov from home and want to play online, William Hill Poker is the poker offer we carry. Its terms run on a much longer clock than the festival.
Ad: William Hill Poker’s £100 playthrough bonus is for new customers who deposit or transfer at least £10 to their poker account. The £100 is bonus money, not cash. You release it through WHPoints, earned by playing real-money poker, in two stages, and it expires after 45 days. That window is three times the length of the Super Circuit, which matters because the bonus only pays out as you play. The package also includes Twister tournament tickets and bonus spins. The bonus spins carry 40x wagering, a 14-day expiry and a £20 maximum redemption. Opt-in is required, and it is one per customer.
That £100 headline is worth being straight about. It is a playthrough bonus released in stages, and a player who does not put in the volume within 45 days will not see all of it.
For casino players, William Hill Vegas’s 200 free spins on Big Bass Splash needs code WHV200, opt-in and a £10 deposit and £10 stake on the game within seven days. The spins are 10p each and expire 72 hours after credit, and winnings must be wagered 10x on the same game in that window, with a £30 cap. William Hill’s 50 free spins on Mining Pots of Gold needs code M50 and a £10 stake, with 24 hours to use the spins and a £30 cap on winnings. Virgin Bet’s 100 free spins on Eye of Horus and 100 free spins on King Kong Cash Even Bigger Bananas 2 both pay winnings as cash with no cap.
