WSOP Circuit Returns to Caesars Southern Indiana

Caesars Southern Indiana hosts the October 22-November 2 WSOP Circuit stop in Elizabeth, Indiana, serving players from Southern Indiana and the broader Louisville market.

The property is physically located in Elizabeth rather than Louisville. Players using navigation or making travel plans should use the Caesars Southern Indiana location in Elizabeth, Indiana.

The 2026 schedule replaces the preliminary information previously available for this stop. Players should use the current WSOP schedule rather than event details from previous Caesars Southern Indiana Circuit festivals.

For property-specific poker information, players can also use the Angry Aces Poker Caesars Southern Indiana Poker Room Guide.

WSOP Circuit Main Event

Event #13 is the $1,700 No-Limit Hold'em Main Event and carries a $250,000 guaranteed prize pool.

The official schedule lists two opening flights:

• Flight A: Friday, October 30 at 11 a.m.

• Flight B: Saturday, October 31 at 11 a.m.

Players planning specifically around the Main Event should use those dates rather than older Caesars Southern Indiana Circuit schedules.

The currently published WSOP event page verifies the buy-in, guarantee and both opening-flight times. Players should continue checking the official event page and WSOP tournament platform for structure information and any operational updates closer to the event.

⠀

Mini Main Event

The previously unconfirmed Mini Main is now officially scheduled.

Event #2 is a $500 No-Limit Hold'em Mini Main Event with a $100,000 guarantee and four starting flights across October 23 and October 24.

Flights are scheduled at 11 a.m. and 4 p.m. on both days.

Players considering the Mini Main should check the official tournament information before entering for the applicable structure, registration cutoff, re-entry rules and advancement procedures.

⠀

Monster Stack

Event #8 is a $500 No-Limit Hold'em Monster Stack.

Flight A begins Tuesday, October 27 at 11 a.m., followed by Flight B on Wednesday, October 28 at 11 a.m.

Because it is a multi-flight event, players should review the event-specific tournament information for registration, re-entry and advancement rules rather than assuming the Main Event procedures apply.

⠀

Pot-Limit Omaha and Mixed Games

The published schedule gives players several options outside standard No-Limit Hold'em.

A $500 Pot-Limit Omaha event is scheduled for Monday, October 26 at 4 p.m.

A $500 Big O event follows Tuesday, October 27 at 2 p.m.

Thursday, October 29 includes a $500 H.O.R.S.E. event at 2 p.m., while Friday, October 30 features a higher-priced $1,100 Pot-Limit Omaha event at 2 p.m.

A $500 Tag Team event is also scheduled for October 29 at 11 a.m.

Players entering any non-Hold'em event should review the applicable event information for game-specific rules and tournament structure.

⠀

Seniors and Ladies Events

The schedule includes both age-restricted and women-focused tournaments.

The $500 No-Limit Hold'em Seniors Event is scheduled for Sunday, October 25 at 11 a.m. WSOP lists the event for players age 50 and older.

The $300 No-Limit Hold'em Ladies Event is scheduled for Monday, November 2 at noon.

Players entering an eligibility-restricted event should confirm all eligibility and identification requirements directly through WSOP and the host property.

⠀

High Roller and Turbo

Players looking for a larger buy-in can enter Event #12, the $2,200 No-Limit Hold'em High Roller, beginning Thursday, October 29 at 2 p.m.

A $500 No-Limit Hold'em Turbo is scheduled for Saturday, October 31 at 4 p.m., several hours after Main Event Flight B begins.

These events give players additional options around the Main Event weekend without requiring the guide to reproduce the entire official schedule.

⠀

Tournament Structures and Registration

WSOP's current Caesars Southern Indiana event page publishes the event schedule and directs players to its tournament platform for tournament details.

The schedule itself confirms event names, buy-ins, dates and start times, but players should review the tournament-specific information before registering for details such as:

• Starting stacks

• Blind levels

• Level lengths

• Late-registration deadlines

• Re-entry limits

• Multi-flight advancement rules

• Restart times

• Event-specific payout or bagging procedures

The current Caesars Southern Indiana event page directs players to the WSOP LIVE app for tournament details. Players should follow current WSOP and property-specific instructions for registration.

Players should use WSOP's current registration instructions rather than assuming procedures from previous Southern Indiana Circuit stops remain unchanged.

⠀

WSOP Circuit Rings and 2026 Championship Package

The tournaments on the published WSOP Circuit schedule give players opportunities to compete for official Circuit recognition.

WSOP has announced that every 2026 WSOP Circuit ring winner receives a $5,000 WSOP Paradise 2026 package. The published program includes entry to the WSOP Circuit Championship and accommodations at Baha Mar in the Bahamas.

The package is part of the broader 2026 WSOP Circuit program rather than a special Southern Indiana-only promotion.

Players interested in qualification and redemption details should review the current WSOP Circuit terms before relying on the package for travel planning.

⠀

Caesars Southern Indiana Poker and Tournament Venue

Caesars Southern Indiana is located in Elizabeth, Indiana, across the Ohio River from the Louisville market.

The property has an established poker operation, but players attending the Circuit should follow tournament signage and WSOP instructions for the location of tournament registration and tournament tables during the festival.

For ongoing cash-game and poker-room information outside the tournament schedule, see the Caesars Southern Indiana Poker Room Guide.

⠀

Elizabeth, Indiana and the Louisville Market

Caesars Southern Indiana serves the greater Louisville and Southern Indiana market but is physically located in Elizabeth, Indiana.

That distinction matters for navigation, hotel planning, rideshare pickup and driving directions. Players traveling from Kentucky will cross into Indiana to reach the casino.

Louisville remains a useful regional reference point for air travel and other transportation planning.

⠀

Dining and Amenities

Caesars Southern Indiana offers on-property dining and other resort amenities, which can be useful during a multi-day tournament festival.

Players should check current property information and operating hours before planning meals around tournament breaks because restaurant schedules can change.

For long tournament days, players should also allow enough time for registration, meals and movement between the tournament area and other parts of the property.

⠀

Parking and Getting There

Players should use Caesars Southern Indiana in Elizabeth, Indiana as their destination when driving to the series.

Louisville Muhammad Ali International Airport, airport code SDF, serves the broader Louisville and Southern Indiana region and is a practical airport option for players flying to the area.

Ground transportation should be planned separately from flight time because the casino is located in Indiana rather than at the airport or in downtown Louisville.

Players driving to the property should verify current parking and entrance information through Caesars before arrival, particularly if WSOP publishes tournament-specific arrival instructions.

Outstanding Tournament Information

The major schedule gaps in the previous version of this guide have been resolved. WSOP now publishes the event lineup, Main Event buy-in and guarantee, and Main Event opening-flight dates.

Some operational details should still be checked through WSOP before play. The current public event page does not provide enough directly displayed information to safely standardize every event's starting stack, complete blind structure, registration cutoff, re-entry limit or multi-flight advancement procedure in this guide.

Southern Indiana-specific satellite information is also not listed on the current official event schedule reviewed for this update.

The exact tournament registration location within Caesars Southern Indiana, any festival-specific tournament-room configuration, and any announced livestream or dedicated live-reporting arrangements also remain unconfirmed in the official material reviewed for this update.

Players should use the official WSOP Circuit Caesars Southern Indiana event page for the latest tournament information before traveling or registering.
