TORONTO — The Great Canadian Casino Resort Toronto and GGPoker are bringing back the World Series of Poker (WSOP) Circuit event in poker room at the resort. Online satellites will be hosted by GGPoker.
Following the success of Toronto’s inaugural 2024 WSOP Circuit event, the 2025 edition is set to take place from Apr. 10 to 22, featuring 11 WSOP Circuit Ring events.
This year’s tournament is expected to surpass the $5.5 million prize pool achieved in 2024. The 2025 lineup will feature a diverse array of events, including the $2,000 main event and the $3,500 high-roller events along with new ladies and seniors’ events, as well as the Pot Limit Omaha tournament.
Last year’s WSOP Circuit event saw more than 6,000 entries, including 324 main event online qualifiers from GGPoker competing for a $5.5 million prize pool. The $2,000 main event alone generated a $2.8 million prize pool, while the $3,500 high-roller event saw a $1 million prize pool.
“We’re thrilled to partner once again with GGPoker to bring an elite poker experience to Toronto,” says Michael Kim, executive vice-president, Great Canadian Entertainment. “The demand for this tournament continues to grow, attracting top talent from across the world. This year’s event promises even higher stakes and unparalleled excitement. We’re proud to continue elevating the poker scene and being the sole destination in Ontario delivering WSOP events for players and fans alike.”
