Every MSPT Champion to Earn Championship Seat

Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Hollywood has entered a two-year partnership beginning in 2026 with the Major Series of Poker, The Tour to host the MSPT season-ending championship as part of the Rock ‘N’ Roll Poker Open.

Every MSPT Main Event winner in 2026 will earn a seat into the $3,500 buy-in, $2 million guaranteed MSPT Rock ‘N’ Roll Poker Open Championship at Seminole Hard Rock Hollywood. The championship will award 1.5X Player of the Year points and will take place during the Rock ‘N’ Roll Poker Open series, scheduled for Nov. 18 to Dec. 2.

The Rock ‘N’ Roll Poker Open transitions to the MSPT in 2026 after previously being aligned with the World Poker Tour. In 2025, Kevin Nee won the WPT Rock ‘N’ Roll Poker Open Championship for $605,100.

The partnership marks the first collaboration between Seminole Hard Rock and the MSPT. The Rock ‘N’ Roll Poker Open is one of four premier poker series operated annually by Seminole Hard Rock, alongside the Seminole Hard Rock Poker Open, Lucky Hearts Poker Open and Seminole Hard Rock Poker Showdown.
