Stake Showdown Qualification

The Stake Showdown events can be found in the Stake Poker lobby, with Phases 1 through 3 beginning on September 1, 2026.

Players can start from any stage in the qualification structure. Those progressing through the stages must win each stage to advance to the next level.

The first phase costs $0.50 and provides eligibility to participate in Stage 2. Phase 2 costs $10 and provides eligibility for Stage 3, while Stage 3 costs $100 and awards access to the Stake Showdown through a seat worth $1,000.

Players can also purchase their seat directly for $1,000 rather than progressing through the qualifying stages.

Players who successfully complete all three qualifying rounds earn access to the Stake Showdown. Alternatively, a $1,000 direct purchase provides a seat without going through the qualification route.
The Stake Showdown carries a guaranteed prize pool of $125,000, with the tournament offering players the opportunity to compete for a share of the prize pool.

The event is scheduled for Sunday, September 27, 2026, at 17:00 UTC. According to the supplied terms and conditions, the Poker match will take place at the same date and time.

With qualifying rounds beginning on September 1, players have the option of entering through the $0.50 starting phase, progressing through the $10 and $100 stages, or purchasing a $1,000 seat directly.
