PRAGUE — Busted players at the 2026 WSOP Europe Main Event will get more than just a bad beat story on their way out. The World Series of Poker has announced the "Rise In Prague" promotion, giving eliminated players who re-enter a shot at finding a Golden Egg on the tournament floor worth a free re-entry.
The €5,300 buy-in, €10,000,000 guaranteed No-Limit Hold'em Main Event runs at the Hilton Prague in partnership with King's Casino. The promotion is active across all Day 1 flights and into Day 2 before late registration closes.
How It Works
Any player who busts during a Day 1 flight or early on Day 2 and chooses to re-enter gets invited to a nearby egg pool to pick one. Crack open a Golden Egg and the WSOP hands over €5,300 in cash to cover the re-entry. Ten Golden Eggs are loaded into the pool at the start of each Day 1 flight:
- Flight A: Friday, April 3 at 12 PM
- Flight B: Saturday, April 4 at 12 PM
- Flight C: Sunday, April 5 at 12 PM
- Day 2: Monday, April 6 at 12 PM
Thirty Golden Eggs in total are available across the promotion, adding over €150,000 in value to the series' flagship event.
What Players Need to Know
Only players who actively opt to re-enter are eligible to draw from the pool. Golden Eggs are non-transferable and must be applied to a re-entry in the same flight they were pulled.
Any eggs left unclaimed at the end of a flight roll over to the next one. If Flight A closes with eight Golden Eggs still in the pool, Flight B opens with 18. There is no cap on how many a single player can win across multiple eliminations.
