ClubWPT Gold Freeroll

One full year after bringing us the biggest guaranteed prize pool poker tournament, the World Poker Tour is back at it with the biggest freeroll tournament ever played, featuring a massive $5,000,000 prize pool.

The event in question is the $5 million Invitational Freeroll in celebration of the launch of ClubWPT Gold, a brand-new sweepstakes poker platform set to bring online poker back to most of America.

Starting on December 13, the event will run alongside the WPT World Championship, the biggest WPT festival of the year, with 2,000 players who win “Golden Passports” set to battle it out for the $1,000,000 first-place prize and hundreds of other valuable prizes.

WPT have now released more details about the record-breaking freeroll, including some of the ways you can win a Golden Passport and be a part of this exciting event.

ClubWPT Gold Freeroll Prize Pool Revealed

When WPT announced the launch of ClubWPT Gold and the $5 Million Freeroll, it was not clear how the prize money would be distributed at first.

We have since learned more, as the operator has announced the tournament will take 2,000 entries in total, with 503 of those making the money,

The minimum payouts will start at $1,000, while the champion will walk away with $1,000,000 in cash. All players who make the final nine will take home at least $20,000, while the top two will play for a massive pay jump from $250k to one million.

What’s even more, the event will feature the popular “mystery bounty” format, with every elimination past 297 players worth a bounty. The pre final table bounties will be as follows:

  • 2x $100,000
  • 2x $50,000
  • 4x $25,000
  • 4x $10,000
  • 16x $5,000
  • 10x $2,500
  • 100x $1,000
  • 150x $500

Apart from these, the final table will feature mystery bounties of its own, with two $10k bounties, three $25k bounties, one $50k bounty, and one $200k bounty distributed among the final table players, along with a single empty envelope.

In total, just over $1,000,000 of the overall prize pool will be given out in the form of mystery bounties.

On top of that, one hundred $10,400 seats for the WPT World Championship event will be raffled off among the players who make the money but don’t quite make the final table, with another $1,040,000 of the prize pool paid out this way.

Finally, the remaining $3 million will be paid out to the top 503 finishers, with the final table payouts looking like this:

  1. $1,000,000
  2. $250,000
  3. $125,000
  4. $75,000
  5. $50,000
  6. $40,000
  7. $30,000
  8. $25,000
  9. $20,000

The very top-heavy payouts at the final table may result in some hectic action at the final table, as players all look to lock up a big stack and make it to heads up.

What’s a Golden Passport Worth?

In total, WPT will hand out 2,000 Golden Passports for the ClubWPT Gold Invitational Freeroll through a variety of promotions that will run over the coming weeks.

Each Golden Passport offers access to the Freeroll, with approximate value of $2,500, along with a number of other perks including:

  • $1,000 for travel and hotel expenses
  • ClubWPT Gold branded merchandise
  • VIP Experience in Las Vegas
  • Access to the ClubWPT Gold Lounge
  • Meet & Greet with WPT talent

Winning one of the 2,000 Golden Passports will allow you to not only play the $5 Million Freeroll, but also enjoy your visit to Las Vegas in style.

With 25% of the entire field earning a reward, the Invitational Freeroll will be a great opportunity to win a prize, have a chance at a $10,400 WPT World Championship seat, and enjoy the thrill of playing in a WPT event without risking a dollar.

How Can I Win a Golden Passport?

ClubWPT Gold has already given out a number of Golden Passports to lucky winners, who simply needed to sign up for the platform and engage with the operator’s social media posts.

You can still do the same by following ClubWPT Gold on X (formerly Twitter), sharing some posts, and creating an account on the new sweepstakes poker platform.

Apart from engaging with the platform itself, you can also win Golden Passports by signing up on the platform through a number of poker players and personalities who are giving away via their platforms.

Famous poker YouTubers Rampage and Mariano are among those giving away seats, as are the likes of Jamie Kerstetter, Matt Savage, Tony Dunst, Lynn Gilmartin, and others.

Brad Owen is giving away $300,000 worth of Golden Passports via his platform, making him one of the best accounts to follow in the buildup to December.

Joey Ingram’s latest X post even invited players to submit videos with hashtag #MakeIveyLaugh, designed to make poker’s greatest living legend Phil Ivey laugh!

If you can get a genuine laugh out of Phil, you will be guaranteed a Golden Passport, taking you to Las Vegas this winter.

Make sure to follow the ClubWPT Gold account on Twitter and all the poker personalities tied to WPT for more opportunities at Golden Passports in the weeks leading up to the greatest freeroll ever played.

Win Your Passport to Sin City

The 2024 WPT World Championship is right around the corner, and with it the greatest live freeroll tournament ever played, worth $5,000,000.

If you haven’t yet, make sure to sign up with ClubWPT Gold, follow them on X, and enter the various competitions being offered by WPT talent and ambassadors on various social media platforms.

The new sweepstakes poker site promises to become one of the top online poker platforms in the US and Canada when it fully launches in January, and being a part of the story before it even starts gives you a fair shot of being one of the 2,000 lucky players to join the action in Vegas this December.
