WPT Global, the trending online poker room of the World Poker Tour, is bringing back the classic single-entry format.
Once the gold standard of online tournament formats, freezeouts have taken a back seat in recent years to re-entry and rebuy events - where bankroll often trumps pure poker prowess. Now, WPT Global is rebalancing the scales by reintroducing the classic single-entry format with its new One Shot tournament series.
WPT Global: One Shot
- Buy-in: $15
- Running 3x a day
- Guaranteed Prize Pool: $7,000 daily
Format: Freezeout
Running three times daily at a $15 buy-in, One Shot events promise a total of $7,000 in guaranteed prize pools every day. The format is simple and pure: one entry, one opportunity, one champion - though plenty of players will still find themselves in the money.
Two of the daily events follow the Progressive Knockout (PKO) model, each boasting a $2,000 guarantee, while the third tournament is a traditional $3,000 GTD freezeout. All events are 8-handed, with 10,000 starting stacks, 10-minute blind levels, and late registration available. To accommodate its large player base across Asia, WPT Global has also ensured time-zone-friendly scheduling for Eastern markets.
True to its name, One Shot means just that: no rebuys, no re-entries - just one chance to make a deep run.
The One Shot series is the latest in a growing lineup of tournament offerings on WPT Global, including:
- Hyper Dash
Turbo-charged action at 40 minutes past every hour, with buy-ins from $1.10 to $88.
- Sunday Hyper PKO Showdown: A high-value hyper turbo PKO tournament held every other Sunday; A ¥33 / $4.56 buy-in event that only lasts 4 hours with a guaranteed prize pool of ¥1,000,000 / $137,000!
- Golden Bounty Championship
A daily $25 buy-in with a $100,000 guaranteed prize pool, culminating in a big-money Sunday finale.
- [Your Name] Deepstack
This daily $5.50 event can carry your name - win it twice within 30 days, and it's yours!
