WSOP announced on September 16 that its Paradise Parlay will return for the December 2–17 Bahamas festival, with at least $1 million distributed through the promotion.
Previous results determine eligibility
Qualifying results are a bracelet win or a second-through-ninth finish in a 2026 WSOP bracelet event before Paradise. Live and online results count. This is not a bonus offered to every visitor.
Eligible bracelet winners can receive $500,000 for winning the Super Main Event; the corresponding reward for qualifying final-table finishers is $250,000. Smaller milestones have separate rewards. Each category is payable once, and only the highest achievement within a tournament counts.
A guarantee with conditions
If payouts fall below $1 million, WSOP says the shortfall will be shared equally among qualifying participating players. Rewards go to WSOP LIVE accounts.
DIP's view
For Asia-based readers, eligibility is the key distinction: a Circuit ring alone is not a qualifying bracelet result under these announced criteria. This is a new promotion announcement, not a change to poker strategy or a reason to stretch a travel budget.
Real-money poker carries financial risk. Follow eligibility rules, keep affordable limits and never chase losses.
