Did You Know the World Poker Tour is Online?
The World Poker Tour’s WPT Prime events have proven popular since their launch in 2022. WPT Prime is designed to give players from around the world the chance to experience the thrill and exhilaration of competing in a WPT Main Event but for a fraction of the cost.
WPT Prime headed to Vietnam, Australia’s Gold Coast, Cambodia, Madrid, Taiwan, and Las Vegas last year and is currently in Paris, France, where the âŹ1,100 buy-in Main Event shuffles up and deals on January 31.
Last time out, WPT Prime found itself in the middle of the WPT World Championship at Wynn Las Vegas. The World Poker Tour slapped a $2 million guarantee on the $1,100 buy-in tournament, but a 5,430-strong field created a $5,267,100 prize pool, resulting in a $712,650 payday for champion Stephen Song. While WPT Prime Paris has no chance of matching those ridiculous numbers, you can see from the table below that the tour puts up impressive figures in its European, Asian, and Australasian stops.

The WPT Prime Paris Main Event features five Day 1s, with the fifth and final flight playing with a turbo structure. Day 1a kicks off at 12:00 p.m. CET on January 31, with subsequent starting days commencing at the same time on February 1-3. February 3 is also when the turbo Day 1e takes place, doing so at 7:00 p.m. CET. The WPT Prime Paris Main Event champion will be crowned on February 5.
Players in the Main Event are in for a treat if it follows in the footsteps of the recent WPT Prime High Roller. The âŹ2,200 buy-in event drew in 246 entrants who fought it out for a âŹ102,500 top prize.
It was Frenchman Idir Haiche that was the last player standing. He defeated Portugal’s Hipolito Carapeta heads-up to capture a âŹ102,500 payout, leaving the runner-up to scoop âŹ71,020.
Argentina’s Andres Korn, a player with almost $2.5 million in live poker tournament earnings, finished fourth for âŹ37,000, with the 2022 EPT Barcelona ESPT High Roller champion Miroslav Alilovic fifth for âŹ27,400.
