The World Series of Poker Circuit is heading back to Latin America this May, with online qualifiers giving players a shot at the felt for as little as $0.

WSOPC Montevideo runs May 18–25 at the Sofitel Casino Carrasco & Spa in Montevideo, Uruguay, featuring 12 gold ring events alongside side events, VIP activities, side action, and live satellites. GGPoker’s dedicated satellite series kicks off March 30 and runs through May 10, with multiple buy-in levels feeding into the $1,700 Main Event, which gets underway May 21 with several Day 1 flights.

Satellite Schedule

The qualifier ladder starts at the ground floor: a weekly Saturday freeroll dishes out five $215 tickets at no cost. $5 step satellites run daily throughout the week, with $22 and $33 options added on Sundays. The pipeline tops out with the $215 Sunday Weekly Finale, which guarantees at least one direct Main Event package.

“WSOP Circuit Montevideo is a unique opportunity for players from all over Latin America to make their way to Uruguay and enjoy a world-class poker experience in an extraordinary setting,” said Juan Carreno, Head of Spanish LATAM at GGPoker.
