Following the successful return of the North American Poker Tour (NAPT) in Las Vegas last year, PokerStars announced in May that the NAPT will return to Resorts World, Las Vegas, this November for another ten-day poker extravaganza.
Continuing the excitement from previous events, the platform is once again seeking a new group of Loose Cannons, as the festival will film additional episodes of The Big Game on Tour.
The series is highlighted by the NAPT Las Vegas Main Event, which has a $5,300 buy-in. Last year’s champion, Sami Bechahed, topped the 1,095-entry field and took home a substantial $268,945.
For those who missed out last year or looking to have a second bite of the cherry, you’ll be pleased to know that you can secure your seat in the Main Event for a fraction of the buy-in.
NAPT Packages Available on PokerStars
For those looking to bypass the $5,300 buy-in for the NAPT Las Vegas Main Event, PokerStars is offering around-the-clock satellite tournaments.
Starting as low as $5.50, these qualifiers provide an opportunity to secure a full NAPT package worth $10,000. Each package includes:
- $5,300 NAPT Las Vegas Main Event buy-in
- Seven nights accommodation for the player and one guest at Resorts World (Nov 4-11)
- $1,840 credited to your Stars Account for travel costs
It’s an incredible value for the price of a cup of coffee!

Satellite Paths
Initial satellites begin at just a few dollars. If you advance from the first round, you’ll progress to a $55 sub-satellite, which feeds into the final $530 qualifier. Success in the final stage earns you a coveted seat in one of the year’s most anticipated poker events.
If you’d rather skip the early stages, you can buy directly into the $55 satellite or the $530 qualifier. Final satellites are held every Sunday at 9 p.m. BST, with at least one package guaranteed. Additional packages will be awarded for every $10,000 accumulated in the prize pool.

These specific satellites are not the only way to lock up a dream poker getaway, as PokerStars provides plenty of avenues for people to explore.
Firstly, there is the Power Path route. Players who log into the PokerStars client will earn a $0.50 Step 1 ticket. These can then be used to enter tournaments that will lead to winning Gold Passes. If you don’t have an account, be sure to take advantage of the PokerStars sign-up bonus.
Players will also be able to win Silver Passes that will be redeemable for NAPT Regional events and bi-weekly $1,000 satellites to the NAPT.
Furthermore, the winner of the two NAPT $600 Regional Main Events will also be gifted a Gold Pass to the NAPT Main Event. The first was recently handed out at Maryland Live!, with the second being dished out at the 2024 Pennsylvania State Poker Championship, which takes place from August 22 to September 8.
