The World Series of Poker, the world’s largest, longest-running, and most prestigious gaming event, will return to Turning Stone Resort Casino from March 13-24 with bigger payouts, more excitement, and a chance to advance to the WSOP Main Event in Las Vegas this summer.
As New York State’s only WSOP event for the fourth consecutive year, Turning Stone’s WSOP Circuit Event will offer a record-breaking $2.6 million guaranteed total payout for 2025. Actual cash prizes are expected to surpass last year’s historic $6.2 million overall payout. In addition to substantial cash prizes, players travel to the resort from dozens of states and Canada for a chance to win a WSOP gold ring, one of the most coveted trophies in gaming.
This year, 18 WSOP gold rings are up for grabs, including one to be awarded at Turning Stone’s 3-day $1 Million Main Event. The Main Event winner will take home the Circuit Event’s top cash prize, a gold ring, and a $10,000 seat at the WSOP Main Event in Las Vegas this summer. Additionally, each WSOP gold ring winner will receive free entry to the WSOP $1 Million Free Roll Tournament in Las Vegas, providing another chance to win a $10,000 Main Event seat.
In addition to the 3-day $1 Million Main Event at Turning Stone, the resort’s Poker Room will also host a 2-day Mini Main Event with a $500,000 guarantee, as well as several returning fan-favorite events, including:
- Ladies-Only Event with a $25,000 guarantee
- 2-day Monster Stack Tournament with a $200,000 guarantee
- Two Seniors Events, each with a $100,000 guarantee
