WSOP Circuit Heads Back to Panama This November
The World Series of Poker International Circuit is making its return to Panama, bringing with it a $500,000 guaranteed Main Event and 12 gold rings available across the series schedule.
A Growing International Footprint
The stop is part of WSOP's ongoing effort to expand its Circuit brand beyond North America and bring marquee tournament poker to international markets. Panama has established itself as a genuine hub for live poker in Latin America, and a 12-event ring schedule signals that this is more than a token international stop — it's a full-scale series.
Why This Stop Matters
For players in the region, a WSOP Circuit stop carries significant weight:
- Circuit rings contribute toward qualification for the prestigious Casino Champion and Global Casino Champion programs, which award seats at the WSOP National Championship.
- A $500K Main Event guarantee sets a meaningful prize-pool floor, making it an attractive destination for both local players and travelling tournament grinders across Central and South America.
- Twelve individual ring events means there are multiple entry points across different buy-in levels, giving players of varying experience a chance to compete for hardware.
Timing & Access
The series is scheduled for November, a period that historically draws strong turnout as the year-end tournament calendar heats up globally. Exact dates, full event schedules, and registration details are expected to be confirmed closer to the series kick-off.
Whether you're based in the region or considering making the trip, Panama's emergence as a recurring WSOP Circuit destination is worth keeping on your radar as November approaches.
