Winamax has announced the official schedule for the upcoming Winamax Series and the Winamax Poker Tour (WiPT) season, featuring €30 million minimum guaranteed across 352 tournaments starting September 6, according to official platform announcements. The autumn festival introduces a €1 million guaranteed Trident tournament alongside traditional flagship events like the 3 Million Event.
Winamax Series Introduces €1 Million Trident Event
The upcoming Winamax Series festival kicks off officially on September 6, offering 352 events and a minimum prize pool of €30 million, according to tournament organizers. Players can access early bird events starting the weekend prior, anchored by the introduction of the Trident Launcher Million Space KO.
Priced at a €10 buy-in, the new Trident format begins Sunday at 14:15 with hourly Day 1 flights running throughout the week. Alongside the Trident tournament, the platform’s signature 3 Million Event returns as an early bird attraction, running from Sunday through September 16. Last April’s edition of the tournament concluded with a victory by player Chill_B0nya, who claimed a top prize exceeding 165 000 euros, according to tournament records.
Winamax Poker Tour Launches Qualifiers for Aix-les-Bains
The 2026/2027 season of the Winamax Poker Tour (WiPT) opens with the launch freeroll scheduled at Aix-les-Bains on September 19 and 20, arriving five weeks earlier than usual. Because of the compressed timeline, qualifying tournaments known as Tremplin events run nightly at 20:00 following qualification through Starting Block Sit & Go games.
Players seeking a direct path to the Grande Finale at Aix-en-Provence—scheduled for March 19 to 29—can target the Sunday Surprise tournament. Winning the event awards a package of 4 500 €, which includes 1 500 € in travel cash and 3 000 € in festival buy-ins, according to tournament details.
Super Freeroll Reaches Final Table Field
Following a summer qualification window that drew roughly 420 000 participants to Sit & Go events and 91 500 entrants to Petites Finales, 15 963 players have advanced to the Super Freeroll Grande Finale, scheduled for Sunday at 20:00. This year’s starting field is more than last year, with a top prize of 15 423 € reserved for the winner.
Leading the chip counts into the final is MartinMater, who enters with 180 000 chips—representing a 900-blind stack—after successfully qualifying nine times across ten tournaments.
Winamax Poker Open Satellites Conclude
Satellite qualifiers for the Winamax Poker Open, structured as a 6-max tournament, are concluding ahead of the autumn schedule. Players have until Sunday evening to secure packages at 1 650 € through a €10 re-buy satellite at 21:15, covering the €500 Main Event entry, six nights of hotel accommodation, and 220 € in cash. A direct €50 buy-in satellite is scheduled for Saturday at 21:15.
