If you are looking for a low-cost route into a live poker festival with real upside, WPT Global is offering one of the best satellite trees you will see in early 2026.
Online qualifiers are now running for the Dublin Poker Festival, where more than €400,000 in guaranteed prize pools are on the line from February 19 to March 1 at the Bonnington Hotel Conference Centre.
At the centre of the festival is the €200,000 GTD European Deepstack Poker Championship, alongside the €100,000 GTD Amateur Championship of Poker (ACOP), both of which can be entered online for a fraction of the live buy-in.
Satellite Into the European Deepstack Championship From $0.88
The headline offer is the European Deepstack Poker Championship, a €700 buy-in event that can be reached online from just $0.88 on WPT Global.
The full satellite path runs: $0.88 → $8.80 → $88 → €700 European Deepstack Championship seat.
What makes this one different is the €100,000 Golden Ticket. The winner of each $88 satellite is awarded a Golden Ticket, and if that player goes on to win the European Deepstack Poker Championship, WPT Global will add €100,000 to their prize.
Day 1 options are flexible. Players can qualify for an OnLive Day 1 on February 15, or take their seat live in Dublin on February 26–27. Day 2 plays on February 28, with the final day scheduled for March 1.
Players holding a Passport Dollar (PP$) balance can use it directly to buy into Dublin Poker Festival satellites and events.
Qualify for the €100,000 GTD ACOP From $4.40
Players looking for a lower buy-in option can target the Amateur Championship of Poker, which carries a €350 buy-in and a €100,000 guarantee.
Online satellites start from $4.40, feeding into $44 qualifiers that award €350 ACOP seats. Players can choose between an OnLive Day 1 on February 8 or live Day 1 flights running February 19–21 in Dublin, with Day 2 played on February 22.
