What the Results Show

The Mystery Millions format, which combines a low buy-in with random bounty envelopes, continues to produce some of the largest fields on the online bracelet schedule. The $250 price point and the chance at a seven-figure bounty draw tens of thousands of entries, while the $5K PLO Championship and $1,500 Super Turbo Bounty PLO cater to more specialized four-card players.

For players following the series, the recurring $30K Super Pass awarded to bracelet winners provides a direct route to the live WSOP Paradise Championship in the Bahamas, linking the online and live portions of the WSOP calendar.
