Each $30,000 package includes a $26,000 WSOP Paradise Super Main Event entry and a stay at SLS Baha Mar. The Beast qualification route begins Sunday, October 4, with Mega Satellites starting Sunday, October 11.

ACR Poker is putting 100 Bahamas packages up for grabs for December’s $50 Million GTD WSOP Paradise Super Main Event. Each package is worth $30,000, giving qualifiers a tournament entry and a hotel stay while they take their shot at one of the biggest prize pools on the live poker calendar.

The Super Main Event runs December 10–17, with a $26,000 buy-in. ACR Poker’s promotion gives players a way to qualify online before heading to The Bahamas.

The first step on the schedule is The Beast on Sunday, October 4. Its $95 buy-in offers a chance to win entry into the following Sunday’s $1,050 Mega Satellite, where the prizes are full Bahamas packages.

Players can also enter the Mega Satellites directly for $1,050. The first runs October 11, and the weekly schedule continues through November 22.

Win a package and your accommodation is at SLS Baha Mar, with check-in December 5 and check-out December 18. The included room accommodates up to two adults and two children under age 14, so the trip can include company beyond whoever happens to be seated on your left.

You will still need to budget for travel, meals and personal spending. The hotel stay is room-only, and the package does not cover transportation to or from The Bahamas.

Start with The Beast or enter a Mega

The $95 Beast tournaments run at 5:05 p.m. ET on Sundays from October 4 through November 15. Each of the first six guarantees 50 seats into the following Sunday’s Mega; the November 15 tournament guarantees 60.

Beast winners are pre-registered for the following Sunday’s Mega, so winning this first stage gets you into the tournament that awards the Bahamas packages. It does not award a package by itself.

The $1,050 Mega Satellites start at 2:05 p.m. ET. Six Sundays guarantee seven packages apiece, followed by an eight-package finale on November 22.

What your Bahamas package includes

The main prize is your $26,000 Super Main Event entry, plus accommodation at SLS Baha Mar from December 5–18. Complimentary Wi-Fi and access to Baha Mar resort amenities are also included.

The accommodation dates are fixed. You can arrive later or leave earlier, but unused nights cannot be moved or exchanged for credit. Extra nights are at your own expense and depend on hotel availability.

The room covers two adults and two children under age 14. Children age 14 or older are subject to an additional $40 per child, per night, plus applicable taxes and fees. Breakfast and other food and beverage costs are not included.

Plan your Super Main Event flight

The $50 Million GTD Super Main Event opens with Day A on Thursday, December 10. Day B follows on December 12, and Day C on December 13, with the final day scheduled for December 17.

There is plenty beyond the poker room

SLS Baha Mar puts you inside the wider Baha Mar resort, with unlimited access to Baha Bay, the adjacent 15-acre water park. The resort has more than 45 restaurants, bars and lounges, alongside two dedicated SLS pools and a beach club.

Golf, spa and racquet facilities are also available across the resort, along with the Baha Mar Casino. A deep tournament run would be a fine reason to miss the water park. A day off gives you a chance to see it.

Before you claim your package

Your first package must be used by you, under the name registered to your winning account. Additional packages may be transferred to another eligible player or sold back for $21,000 each. The deadline to sell back an additional package is November 23, 2026.

Transfer or sellback requests go to events@winningpokernetwork.com. Allow 48 hours for the transaction to be credited; transfers require Live Events Team verification and approval. A transferred package can only be transferred once.

Winners must create an account in the official event app and send their event ID to WPN to receive their tournament ticket. They must also wear an ACR Poker patch during the Super Main Event and be available for social media interviews.

Packages must be used for the 2026 Paradise event. Unused packages are forfeited and have no cash or alternative value. Tournament dates, times and structures remain subject to changes by the organizer.

Your first chance on the schedule is October 4 at 5:05 p.m. ET in The Beast. Pick your qualifying Sunday and find the tournament in the ACR Poker lobby. The Bahamas can wait until December; the work of winning your way there starts now.
