The World Series of Poker (WSOP), in partnership with GGPoker, today unveiled the daily event schedule for its recently-announced new winter series, WSOP Paradise, which will run from Dec. 3-14 at Atlantis Paradise Island in the Bahamas. Players looking to travel to the series and buy into the tournament directly can now book their stay at Atlantis Paradise Island via a “players exclusive” offer.

For players looking to qualify online, 1,000 packages can be won for the Main Event, including an 11-night hotel stay at Atlantis Paradise Island, a $5,000 tournament buy-in, and daily complimentary lunch buffet access. GGPoker also announced a commitment of 200 packages to be won for the GGMillion$ event, including an 11-night upgraded stay in Atlantis’ The Cove or The Reef, a $25,000 buy-in, and daily complimentary lunch buffet access.

Additionally, the Mystery Millions event will use GGPoker’s OnLive format allowing players to participate in online Day 1s and fast-forward into the money before arriving on-site in the Bahamas.

Furthermore, players in the upcoming Millionaire Maker in Paradise event, part of GGPoker’s WSOP Online 2023 series (Aug. 20 to Oct. 2) will also have the opportunity to win their way from the online felt to the Bahamas; play will pause once 100 participants remain in that event and resume on Dec. 4 at Atlantis Paradise Island.

For specific information on times of WSOP Paradise qualifiers, which begin later this month, players should check within the GGPoker client.

WSOP Paradise builds on the momentum generated by the record-breaking 54th annual WSOP, which took place at Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas on the Las Vegas Strip this summer. Featuring 15 bracelet events in total, the series will be headlined by more than $50 million in guaranteed prize pools, including a $5,000 Main Event with a $15 million total prize pool guarantee and a $1,500 Mystery Bounty with a $5 million guarantee.

“It’s official, WSOP Paradise is set to deliver an unforgettable new winter series with our jam-packed schedule,” said Ty Stewart, SVP & Executive Director of the World Series of Poker. “We can’t wait for cards to be in the air in paradise this December, and we look forward to crowning our first Main Event champion at Atlantis Paradise Island. Whether you made the trip to Vegas or not, you don’t want to miss out on what we’ve got in store with our partners at GGPoker.”

AGS, the global gaming supplier, teamed up with Yaamava’ Resort & Casino at San Manuel in Southern California to host a two-day launch celebration for its newest slot family, Ultra Werewolf.

The event kicked off on Wednesday, March 4, with special guests Kevin Smith and Jason Mewes, reprising their iconic roles as Jay and Silent Bob from the 90s cult classics Clerks, Mallrats, and Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back. Smith and Mewes were the first to experience the game and shared their impressions during a live recording of their SMPodcast, “Jay & Silent Bob Do Yaamava’.”

The fang-tastic festivities continued the following day with an unveiling celebration attended by Yaamava’ Resort & Casino and AGS representatives, culminating in an exciting slot pull for Club Serrano Members.

Guests were immersed in a comic book–inspired world, featuring a life-sized Werewolf, two werewolf “hunters” from the game, interactive photo opportunities, and custom werewolf-themed slot chair covers. The VIP reception offered themed mocktails, wolf-ear headbands, and free spins on Ultra Werewolf Fury and Ultra Werewolf Strike. Four lucky participants who played the Ultra Werewolf games were entered into a draw for $1,000 in Free Play, with one lucky winner receiving $5,000 in Free Play.

Mark DeDeaux, Senior Vice President and General Manager, Slots at AGS, said:
“Yaamava’ Resort & Casino is the perfect venue to celebrate the dedication and partnership that goes into a world premiere of a slot game. The Ultra Werewolf brand extension builds on the thrilling storyline of the original Werewolf, one of AGS’ most successful premium games. The new franchise takes it further with a unique comic book theme, more bonus features, and all-around excitement. Our collaboration with Yaamava’ and shared focus on delivering innovative, unforgettable player experiences made this the ultimate way to ‘Catch the Wolf.’”

Kenji Hall, General Manager of Yaamava’ Resort & Casino, added:
“Ultra Werewolf represents the kind of creative, high-impact game design that elevates the entire industry. Yaamava’ is dedicated to leading the market in entertainment innovation, and we’re proud to host the launch of AGS’ latest breakthrough.”

The excitement continues, with Ultra Werewolf slot drawings scheduled for March 22, where four Club Serrano players will each win $1,000 in Free Play, and one lucky winner will receive $5,000 in Free Play plus a limited-edition silver Justice League comic collector card.

Ultra Werewolf will be available exclusively at Yaamava’ Resort & Casino for a limited time before expanding to additional casinos nationwide.
