gaming experience as a player climbs the leaderboard.

Discover the Circuit Trait Pack
In
collaboration with ⚽️ Kanpai’s Creative Director @SaidSeven, we’ve introduced the Circuit
Trait Pack. These monthly traits are not only collectible but offer strategic ⚽️ depth to
the final live game. Among the functional traits are:
Mulligan : Redraw your hole cards
once per game.
: Redraw ⚽️ your hole cards once per game. Poker Face : Shield yourself
from other players’ traits for a round.
: Shield yourself ⚽️ from other players’ traits
for a round. Turn Tamer: Get a sneak peek at the rank of the Turn card.
… ⚽️ and more to
come!
The Grand Showdown in 2024
In 2024, brace yourself for the live final game. This
isn’t your typical ⚽️ poker showdown — players will have the chance to activate the
functional traits they’ve gathered throughout the year, adding a ⚽️ unique layer of
strategy and spectacle to the event.
Each finalist will select three of their collected
traits to take into ⚽️ the final game. These functional traits will grant players unique
advantages that can be deployed at strategic points in the ⚽️ game. However, each trait
can only be used once, adding a layer of strategic decision-making to their use.
The
incorporation of ⚽️ functional traits into the live game not only spices up the gameplay
but also underscores the value of these traits, ⚽️ encouraging their trading and
collection throughout the circuit. Some players might start to value specific traits
over others based on ⚽️ their strategic play style, adding a new dimension to the trading
dynamics.
The Grand Finale
The top 10 players who have collected ⚽️ the most traits over
the tournament series will be invited to the final, real-life poker event. A separate
leaderboard will ⚽️ track the total number of traits each player has won throughout the
circuit.
The grand finale will be live-streamed, with the ⚽️ entire PPDEX community
invited to come watch IRL (and party). This feature adds an immersive and inclusive
element to our ⚽️ tournament, ensuring that even those who do not play poker can
appreciate the suspense and excitement of the event.
In a ⚽️ move that’s bound to excite
every poker fan, we are thrilled to announce that the winner of the WSOPP live ⚽️ final
game will receive an all-expenses-paid entry to the prestigious World Series of Poker
main event!
It’s not just about pride ⚽️ and Panda Points; it’s your chance to join the
global elites of poker. Will you rise to the challenge?
