All KP NFT holders are eligible to enter free satellite tourney.

The Kanpai Panda NFT team is sending the winner of its upcoming online poker tournament to play in the WSOP Main Event in Las Vegas, all expenses paid.

The company on Tuesday said players could register to play in its online poker tournament for free, but they must be a Kanpai Panda NFT holder with a Discord ID to be allowed to register.

The Kanpai online tournament will be played on June 4 at 12 noon EST.

The winner of the Kanpai Panda tournament will receive a paid entry to the World Series of Poker Main Event, which costs $10,000.

In addition, the company said it will provide the tournament winner paid travel accommodations from anywhere in the world, and paid hotel accommodations at any MGM property in Las Vegas. The hotel stay will run two days before the Main Event up to two days after the contestant wins the tournament or busts out.

Finally, the player will receive a selection of Kanpai Panda merchandise to “rep” while they play in the WSOP Main Event.

“The WSOP Main Event runs from July 3 to 26, and we want to see our tournament winner represent the Kanpai Panda family,” the company said in a statement. “The KP poker tournament winner will rock Kanpai Panda merchandise when they compete during the WSOP Main Event. We will work to have our Kanpai Panda WSOP contestant live-streamed for the entirety of his/her play so that all Kanpai Panda holders can watch and root for their fellow panda. Best of luck to all Kanpai Panda contestants on Sunday. Kanpai!”
