GGPoker to Host 33 WSOP Online Bracelet Events Starting August 16
The 2026 World Series of Poker Online Bracelet Series is officially on the calendar, with GGPoker set to host 33 bracelet events beginning August 16. For players who prefer competing from home — or those who couldn't make it to Las Vegas for the live series — this slate represents one of the largest online bracelet opportunities in WSOP history.
What We Know So Far
Details are still rolling in, but here's the headline picture:
- Platform: GGPoker
- Series start date: August 16, 2026
- Total bracelet events: 33
- Bracelets on the line: Fully official WSOP gold bracelets, identical in prestige to those awarded at the live series
Why This Matters
The WSOP's partnership with GGPoker has steadily grown the online bracelet footprint over recent years, and 33 events marks a meaningful expansion of that footprint. For the broader poker community, a larger online schedule means more players across more time zones can realistically chase bracelet glory without the cost and logistics of a Las Vegas trip.
It's also worth watching how the field sizes develop. Online bracelet events on GGPoker have historically attracted massive player pools — sometimes dwarfing comparable live events — which can push guaranteed prize pools and create some of the softest-per-entry value on the schedule from a pure field-size standpoint.
Keep an Eye On
