The World Series of Poker Circuit is heading back to Nottingham. Dusk Till Dawn will host the UK leg of the WSOPC from Friday 6 November, and by the time play wraps up on Sunday 15 November thirteen gold rings will have been handed out in the club’s main tournament room.
The headline event is once again the £1,500 Main Event, which carries a £1,000,000 guarantee. On top of the rings, every one of the thirteen champions will also collect a WSOP Paradise package worth $5,000 for the series in The Bahamas.
Five flights for the £1m Main Event
According to the official Dusk Till Dawn schedule, the Main Event costs £1,350 plus a £150 fee and starts players with 50,000 chips on 40 minute levels. Day 1a is on Sunday 8 November, with further starting flights on 11, 12 and 13 November and a morning last chance flight on Saturday 14 November. Day 2 follows that same afternoon, and the final day is set for Sunday 15 November.
Those dates sit inside a wider festival window. The WSOP tournament calendar lists the Dusk Till Dawn stop from 4 to 16 November, with the ring events themselves running from the 6th to the 15th.
Two big feeders and a hidden $15,000 prize
Two of the cheaper events have Main Event seats built into their guarantees. The £300 Mini Main (£260 plus £40) runs from 6 to 8 November with £250,000 guaranteed, and fifteen £1,500 Main Event seats are included in that figure. The £560 Paradise Mystery Bounty follows from 9 to 11 November, also with £250,000 guaranteed and another fifteen seats.
The Mystery Bounty has an extra twist. As PokerNews reports, one of the bounty envelopes contains a $15,000 Paradise package made up of a $10,400 GGMillion$ entry, thirteen nights of accommodation and buffet access. The standard $5,000 package for ring winners covers a $2,750 seat in Day 1a of the Circuit Championship Mystery Bounty plus four nights in The Bahamas.
The rest of the ring schedule includes a £1,500 PLO High Roller, a £2,200 High Roller with £200,000 guaranteed, a £1,500 6-Max High Roller, a £300 Colossus and £300 events for seniors, PLO, Monster Stack, 6-Max, 7-Max and Bounty players. Live satellites run most evenings at the club, and Dusk Till Dawn also lists online feeders on GGPoker, including a £165 mega satellite on 2 November with twenty Main Event seats guaranteed.
Obadun is the man to follow
The 2025 edition set a high bar. In last year’s UK Main Event a field of 845 entries built a prize pool of £1,095,120, and Francis Obadun took the title and £189,030 after beating Jack O’Neill heads up. O’Neill earned £126,005 for second place. Anthony Desai won the £300 Mini Main for £48,069 from a field of 1,214.
For British players the appeal goes beyond the ring. The Paradise packages give the winners a route to the Bahamas festival, where the WSOP has already added a $250,000 Pro-Am event to the schedule.
