WPT Cambodia 2026 Returns to NagaWorld

The WPT Cambodia 2026 runs from January 21 to February 9, with the full festival hosted at NagaWorld . The schedule spans several weeks and carries $3.5 million in total guarantees, allowing players to approach the series with flexibility, whether arriving for a short stretch or committing to a longer stay.

Accommodation Options at NagaWorld

Players attending WPT Cambodia can stay directly at NagaWorld, with accommodation options structured around different playing plans.

Marathon Packages

Marathon Packages are designed for players planning to remain on site for most of the festival. These packages cover 18, 19, or 20 nights between January 21/22/23 and February 10, 2026.

Players can choose a NagaWorld1 Deluxe Room from $105 per night or a NagaWorld2 Superior Room from $55 per night. Depending on length of stay and room type, package prices range from $990 to $2,100.

Players who book through the official links and register in the required WPT Cambodia tournaments are eligible for a $250 rebate. Eligibility is confirmed by a Poker Supervisor at the venue once participation requirements are met.

High Roller Room Promotion

The High Roller Room Promotion is based on tournament participation rather than a fixed package.

Players book their room at NagaWorld and place a refundable deposit at check-in. Complimentary nights are earned by registering for and playing qualifying High Roller tournaments, with both entries and re-entries counting toward eligibility. A minimum of five qualifying High Roller entries is required.

At checkout, players request a voucher from the Poker Supervisor confirming the number of free nights earned. The voucher is presented at the hotel front desk, where the corresponding portion of the deposit is refunded. If the play requirement is not met, $105 is deducted for each night not qualified.

WPT Special Room Rates

Promotional rates are available for players seeking flexibility.

NagaWorld2 Superior Rooms are priced from $65 per night. NagaWorld1 Deluxe Rooms are available from $115 per night and include daily breakfast.

Full accommodation details and booking links are available on the NagaWorld website.

Player Fees, Rake, and Festival Conditions

There is no tax deducted from player winnings at WPT Cambodia, and no tax is built into the rake.

Administration and staff fees follow a tiered structure. Buy-ins up to $500 carry a 4 percent staff fee. Events above $500 are charged at 3 percent. The $20,000 Super High Roller carries a 2 percent staff fee.

Rake levels provide value across the schedule. The $20,000 Super High Roller is charged at 3 percent rake. The $10,000 event is set at 3.5 percent. The $5,000 events carry 6 percent rake. For $3,000 events, rake ranges from 5 percent to 8.3 percent depending on format.

The festival is scheduled during one of the most comfortable periods of the year in Cambodia. It falls outside the monsoon season, with more stable conditions and lower humidity compared to later months, which supports long tournament days and consistent scheduling throughout the series.

Schedule, Championship Events, and Key Highlights

The full tournament schedule and player guide for WPT Cambodia 2026 is available online and includes complete structures, dates, and event information.

Schedule and Player Guide

Two Championship events sit at the centre of the schedule.

The WPT Prime Cambodia Championship runs from January 30 to February 3. The $1,100 buy-in event carries a $750,000 guarantee and uses a multi-flight format, giving players multiple entry points.

The series concludes with the WPT Cambodia Championship, running from February 4 to February 9. The $3,500 buy-in event carries a $1.5 million guarantee and features 90-minute levels from Day 2 onward, allowing the later stages to play without being rushed.

Beyond the Championship events, the schedule includes several notable tournaments. The $600 Championship Warm Up opens the festival, offering a lower buy-in multi-day option. This is followed by three $200,000 guaranteed multi-flight events running from February 24 to 28, comprising the $800 Survivor $1,500 Bounty, the $800 8-Max Championship, and the $1,000 Mystery Bounty.

High Roller tournaments run almost daily throughout the festival, with 15 events scheduled across the series. Buy-ins range from $1,650 to as high as the marquee $10,000 Single Day Challenge and $20,000 Super High Roller event, giving High Roller players options across the full schedule.
.
Daily tournaments remain part of the lineup. The $250 Megastack returns after drawing strong fields in 2025. For 2026, a new $250 Early Bird Megastack has been added, starting at 10am and offering 25-minute levels after registration closes.

Pot-Limit Omaha events run on most days, with formats rotating across the festival.

Danny McDonagh on the 2026 Schedule

According to Danny McDonagh, the 2026 schedule reflects both continuity and adjustment following the 2025 edition.

He noted that many tournaments returning from last year were retained due to strong turnout, while several additions were made directly in response to player feedback. Total guarantees across the festival have been increased to $3.5 million, with early value placed on lower buy-in multi-day events.

McDonagh highlighted the $600 Championship Warm Up as a key entry point for players, followed closely by the three $200,000 guaranteed multi-flight events that run in the early phase of the festival. He pointed to the Prime Championship and the WPT Cambodia Championship as the backbone of the series, noting in particular that the Cambodia Championship offers the strongest WPT structure globally at this buy-in level.

He also emphasised the expanded satellite program. While satellites in 2025 were limited mainly to the Prime and Main Tour events, the 2026 schedule includes satellites to eight additional tournaments, covering all multi-day Day 1 events as well as the $10,000 and $20,000 High Rollers. Satellites to the Prime and Main Tour remain a major feature, with 84 Championship entries guaranteed.

Daily tournaments were another focus. The $250 Megastack, introduced in 2025 and drawing fields of up to 183 entries, returns for 2026. Building on that success, the new $250 Early Bird Megastack starts at 10am and offers a structured option earlier in the day that fits around multi-day tournaments.

High Roller players will see further variety added to the schedule, including a new Survivor-format Hold’em event with a $2,200 buy-in. Once the field is reduced to 20 percent, each remaining player receives a $4,000 bounty chip.

Pot-Limit Omaha players are also well covered, with tournaments running on most days across the nearly three-week schedule. Formats include standard four-card and five-card PLO, Big O, Double Board Bomb Pot, and short-handed variants. The schedule also includes the Cheap Shot Ladies event on opening Saturday, with the first half hour of entries free for the $100 tournament.

McDonagh added that, as in 2025, the schedule is designed to allow players of all bankrolls to participate, with tournaments starting from $200 and satellites to major events priced from $130.

Poker Setup at NagaWorld

Poker at WPT Cambodia is hosted in a large ballroom at NagaWorld.

Players have access to table-side food service and massages at the tables. A satellite spa operates within the venue. A VIP lounge is available for players, and a player party is scheduled during the festival.

Don’t Miss Out

With accommodation, tournaments, and player services all based at the same venue, WPT Cambodia 2026 allows players to focus on the poker itself. The structure of the schedule makes it possible to arrive for specific events or remain on site for the full series, depending on individual plans.
