Don't Miss It! 2025 WSOP PokerNews Deepstack Championship Starts TODAY!
At PokerNews, we always love to go the extra mile for our fans. When the opportunity presented itself last year to attach our name to a World Series of Poker (WSOP) gold bracelet event, the $600 Deepstack Championship, we jumped right at the chance to go above and beyond to celebrate those achieving the pinnacle of poker success.
Sponsoring an event of this magnitude is a rare privilege, which is why PokerNews once again has added unique, commemorative, and, above all, valuable extra prizes to what's already going to be a bumper field of thousands with a prize pool exceeding seven figures.
An Exclusive Extra Prize: A 24-Karat Gold Winner's Coin
To make this event even more special, the winner will not only receive the coveted bracelet and a six-figure first-place prize, but will also get their hands on a unique 24-karat gold PokerNews Deepstack Championship winner's coin.
This isn't just any prize: only two have ever been made, and you could get your hands on one by showcasing your poker prowess against the world's best players.
Last year, UK's Hector Berry did just that, topping a field of a whopping 5,110 players to win $282,876, the gold bracelet, and the special gold coin to commemorate his incredible achievement. Watch how Berry experienced his victory last year below.
In addition to the gold coin for the winner, every player at the final table will receive a silver PokerNews coin as a reward for their incredible achievement.

Over the past five weeks, players have been flocking to the PokerNews Daily Deepstacks in the Horseshoe Las Vegas to try and get a top ten spot on the weekly leaderboard. 50 FREE seats have been awarded to this event for the top 10 of every weekly leaderboard!
