WPT Global Kicks Off 2026 with Exciting New Games and Freerolls


WPT Global has started the new year with a bang, introducing new Hyper Dash poker tournaments, a unique casino game, and exciting freerolls. The new Hyper Dash tournaments include SNG Dash and Rocket Dash, both designed for ultra-fast play and thrilling action.

New Tournament Formats

The SNG Dash is an 8-handed table format with 3-minute blind levels, expected playing time of 45 minutes, and three payouts. The Rocket Dash is an hourly Hyper Turbo PKO tournament with buyins ranging from $1.10 to $55, starting 15 minutes past every full hour, and an average duration of just 60 minutes.

Freerolls and Prizes

Throughout January, WPT Global players can win tickets to two WPT Cambodia freerolls, hosted online on January 17 and 24. The top 21 players in each freeroll will receive prizes, with the winner of each freeroll receiving a $1,500 WPT Prime entry, VIP Lounge Access, an Invitation to the Players’ Party, Exclusive WPT Global Merch, and a Hotel Discount. Additional entry tickets and packages for the WPT Cambodia festival will be available via various satellites at WPT Global, with buyins starting as low as $0.55.

I've spent years at the tables — cash and tournaments — and just as long shaping poker copy behind the scenes: room reviews, bonus fine print, tournament notes. At PokerInsider I write the way I wish more sites would: clear structure, honest trade-offs, no hype. Whether you're new or already grinding, I care about what the offer actually costs you — rake, variance, and the fine print — and I treat responsible play as part of the job, not a footnote.
