Sixth Time WPT Has Visited Australia

This year’s WPT Prime is the sixth time the World Poker Tour has visited Australia. The first time the series came to Australia was in 2019 and 2021 with WPT Deepstacks. In 2022, the WPT ran a Deepstacks event along with a WPT Prime event and the inaugural WPT Australia.

The series will run both standard buy-in tournaments and a series of satellites for most events. Satellite tournaments are smaller buy-in tournaments that award seats in a larger tournament. Satellites are a great way to win a seat into a tournament and reduce the impact on your bankroll. You can use the extra money to compete in other poker events or play casino games like pokies.
