Canadian poker players have another shot at WSOP glory this fall as GGPoker opens online satellites for the WSOP Circuit Montreal, returning to Playground from November 3–18, 2025. With $6 million in guaranteed prizes and 18 WSOP gold rings up for grabs, it’s shaping up to be the most anticipated poker series in Canada this year.

Third WSOP Stop of 2025 at Playground

This marks the third WSOP Circuit stop of 2025 hosted at the award-winning Playground Poker Club in Kahnawake, Quebec, the beating heart of Canadian live poker.
Following record-breaking turnouts earlier this year, the November edition raises the stakes once again, increasing the overall prize pool from $5 million to $6 million guaranteed.

Each event winner will also earn a coveted WSOP gold ring, a symbol of prestige recognized across the global poker circuit.

How to Qualify via GGPoker

Online qualifiers for WSOP-C Montreal are now live on GGPoker, open to players across Canada.
You can win a $2,500 Main Event seat through a range of satellite tournaments starting from just a few dollars, or even for free, thanks to multiple freeroll options.

Main Event Highlights

Buy-In: $2,500
Guaranteed Prize Pool: $2.5 million
Day 1 Flights: Nov 13 (1A), Nov 14 (1B), Nov 15 (1C)
Day 2: Nov 16
Final Day: Nov 17

Winners of full $2,500 Main Event packages will also receive exclusive GGPoker-branded merchandise, making the trip to Montreal an experience both lucrative and memorable.

Past Success Stories – From $75 Satellite to $620K Champion

The last WSOP-C Montreal Main Event, held in August, proved that online qualifiers can go the distance.
Jacob Hobday, a GGPoker player who entered via a $75 satellite, went on to win $620,000 and his first WSOP Circuit ring.
Other GGPoker qualifiers finished 2nd and 4th, highlighting the platform’s growing reputation for creating champions.

“Our Canadian players love to play WSOP events in their own backyard,” said Sarne Lightman, Managing Director of GGPoker. “We’re thrilled to be sending another full contingent of players to Playground for the November stop.”
