The Olympic Park Casino in Tallinn, Estonia, is again welcoming the World Series of Poker Circuit (WSOPC) through its doors for an action-packed schedule boasting 12 WSOPC ring-awarding events and more than 60 side events. The €1,500 WSOPC Tallinn Main Event comes with a juicy €1 million guaranteed prize pool.
WSOPC Tallinn explodes into action on July 23 before wrapping up on August 2. Between those dates, 12 WSOPC Rings are waiting to be won, while champions will be crowned in more than 60 side events. The ring events champions will receive a $5,000 package to compete at the WSOP Circuit Championship at the WSOP Paradise 2026 series in addition to their gold ring and prize money.
An active WSOP LIVE account is required to register for all WSOP Circuit Tallinn 2026 events. Please download the WSOP LIVE app from the Apple App Store or Google Play before arriving.
Before entering our tournament area on the second floor of the Hilton Tallinn Park Hotel, all players must first register with Olympic Park Casino on the ground floor by presenting a valid government-issued photo ID.
The minimum age for entry to both WSOP Circuit Tallinn 2026 and Olympic Park Casino is 21 years.
The first ring-awarding event runs July 23-27. It is the €350 No-Limit Hold’em Mini Main Event, which last summer attracted 954 entries and re-entries. Sweden’s Simon Persson was the last player standing; he got the festival off to a flying start by bagging €45,700.
Other WSOPC ring events include a €555 Pot-Limit Omaha 4/5 Card event, a €350 Queens Women-Only tournament, a one-day €5,000 No-Limit Hold’em, a €1,100 8-Game, €555 Sviten Special, and a €1,100 NLHE Mystery Bounty.

Last year’s WSOP Tallinn Main Event was huge. By the time late registration had closed on the final flight, some 888 entries had been processed. All those entries resulted in a €1,138,860 prize pool that the top 138 finishers shared.
By the time the final table was reached, €14,200 was the least any of the nine finalists could win. The top two finishers each secured a six-figure payout!
Jenny Westerlund of Sweden was the last woman standing and joined a very exclusive club of female WSOPC Main Event champions. The former poker dealer defeated Poland’s Krzysztof Chmielowski heads-up to capture a €200,200 top prize and resigned the runner-up to a €128,500 consolation prize.
