WPT Global Introduces Hyper Dash Tournaments

WPT Global has introduced an exciting new format known as Hyper Dash this month. These hyper turbo tournaments prioritise speed and intensity and are already proving to be a big hit.

This innovative offering has been officially branded as “Hyper Dash for the Cash” and it promises players a condensed yet exhilarating tournament experience. These are not for the sit back and grind type of player, rather those who seek the maximum fun whenever they play.

Designed to conclude much faster than the average MTT, Hyper Dash caters to a growing segment of the poker community seeking swift, intense action without the protracted time commitment of traditional events.

Fast and Furious

The mechanics of Hyper Dash Tournaments have been crafted to accelerate gameplay, giving players a starting stack of only 15 big blinds which forces proactive play from the get go.

Blind levels increase every five minutes, maintaining relentless pressure and ensuring a constant stream of exciting all-in confrontations.

Late registration remains available for the first 12 levels — approximately one hour — after which the tournament locks, intensifying the competition toward the prize pool.

The official line is that most Hyper Dash events are structured to conclude in under two hours.

The format made its debut earlier this month with the Hyper Dash Opening Ceremony on March 9, featuring a $55 buy-in event with a $25,000 guaranteed prize pool.

• Action-packed tournaments running every hour, every day
• Buy-ins from just $1.10 to $110 – big prizes for all bankrolls
• Hyper turbo format – intense action in just two hours

This inaugural tournament set the tone for what has since become a daily fixture on WPT Global’s calendar. Over 50 tournaments daily, starting at 40 minutes past the hour.

Hyper Dash tournaments now run around the clock, with buy-ins ranging from $1.10 to $110 and guarantees reaching as high as $1,000.

Despite their short duration, these events often see substantial prize pools, a testament to WPT Global’s commitment to delivering great value, even within a compressed time frame.

The World Poker Tour has a well-established reputation for hosting competitive tournaments with attractive fields and guarantees. This new format on WPT Global is just the latest offering.

There is also potential for further expansion, with the platform hinting at additional enhancements in the future, such as leaderboard incentives or special series to sustain engagement.

These events are perfect for recreational players who want a fast-paced poker fix. Even those who are still taking their first steps in the world of poker.
