It's just 50 days until the start of the 2025 World Series of Poker, where this year's schedule sees 100 bracelet events. And one event returning for this summer at Horseshoe and Paris is Bracelet Event #78 PokerNews Deepstack Championship (PNDC).

And this also means last year's popular PokerNews Daily Deepstack Challenge is coming back bigger and better than ever before!

Here's What's Happening

From May 27 to June 30, players grinding the $200, $250, and $400 Daily Deepstacks tournaments at the WSOP will rack up leaderboard points. Every week, the top 10 players will be awarded a complimentary entry into the PNDC on July 1. That’s 50 seats up for grabs—10 more than last year, thanks to the additional week of action. And best of all? You can win multiple seats, meaning the more you play and perform, the better your shot at a deep WSOP run.

And if you’re wondering whether the PNDC is worth it, just look at last summer. The 2024 PNDC was a massive hit, attracting 5,110 entries and awarding Hector Berry a $282,876 payday after he defeated Luke Varrasso heads-up. This year’s event promises to be just as epic, with a four-day structure that gives players plenty of room to maneuver their way to a bracelet.

Last Year's Highlights

The PokerNews Daily Deepstack tournaments were a huge success last year, running 84 events across four weeks. A huge 31,973 entries generated $6,935,340 in prize pools, with $1,263,978 awarded to first-place winners alone. The biggest Daily Deepstack event saw 1,030 entries, while two more events broke the 1,000-entry barrier.

Famous faces like Olga Iermolcheva, commentator James Hartigan, 2015 WSOP Final Tablist Pierre Neuville, and even members of the WSOP Hall of Fame all jumped into the action.

For some, the PokerNews Daily Deepstack Challenge was more than just a way to win a tournament, it was a gateway to something bigger.

Just ask Simmy Mok. After surviving a life-changing car crash, poker became her saving grace. She had spent summers in Vegas but never took a shot at a bracelet event until last year. Mok won the first Daily Deepstack of the 2024 WSOP, and while she narrowly missed out on a PNDC ticket, she used her winnings to enter the Lucky 7’s bracelet event, marking her first-ever WSOP tournament. Stories like hers show that these deepstack tournaments can be the stepping stones to bigger WSOP dreams.
