BSOP Millions 2026 mixed-game count: fourteen non-hold'em events, and a R$ 25,000 nine-game high roller
Counting through BSOP's published 105-event grid for São Paulo, 13–28 November 2026, fourteen tournaments are mixed-game, stud or draw events rather than hold'em, and eleven more are Omaha. The priciest of them, a R$ 25,000 nine-game super high roller, costs four times the Mini Championship.
Most festival coverage stops at the guarantees, so it is worth counting what else is on BSOP's grid for the Complexo WTC in São Paulo. Reading the published schedule event by event, fourteen of the 105 numbered tournaments are mixed-game, stud or draw events rather than hold'em, and another eleven are Omaha.
The ceiling is event #49 on 19 November: a R$ 25,000 nine-game super high roller settled in one day, with a 100,000 starting stack and 30-minute levels. That is four times the buy-in of the Mini Championship and the highest price BSOP has put on a mixed event this festival. The same nine-game format returns much cheaper the following day as the R$ 6,000 9-Game Cup (#52).
In between sit the formats that rarely get a tournament in Latin America at all. Two twenty-game dealer's-choice events (#21 on 15 November, #66 on 22 November), with the first published under a rule that a game already played cannot be chosen again. Teros (#13), a five-game rotation of 2-7 triple draw, Omaha hi-lo, razz, stud hi-lo and seven-card stud, none of them hold'em. Triple Stud (#33). HORSE (#79). A mixed triple draw lowball (#61). A split-pot mix of stud eight-or-better and PLO eight-or-better (#47). A Mixed Big Bet event restricted to pot-limit and no-limit games (#85). A PLO hi-lo mix (#89) rotating Big O, PLO hi-lo and Courchevel hi-lo. Two 8-Game events at R$ 2,500 (#28, #95), plus the R$ 500 8-Game Super 500 that opens the festival on day one. The last mixed event, a dealer's choice (#102), is on the closing day.
The Omaha programme is built the same way, from a R$ 1,500 five-card PLO one-day (#88) up to a R$ 25,000 PLO5 six-max invitational (#99) over the final two days — a higher buy-in than the R$ 10,000 Pot Limit Omaha Main Event (#84) itself.
One other detail in the grid is easy to miss. Five events — #17, #20, #32, #46 and #98 — are tied to the Instituto Garra charity, and BSOP's schedule states that a player who donates 10% of the buy-in directly at the event cashier receives 20% extra chips in the starting stack. It is an optional donation attached to the entry, not a separate buy-in level.
The festival runs 13 to 28 November 2026. Poker is a game of skill played for entertainment, and any tournament entry can be lost in full; play only with money you can afford to set aside, and only if you are over the legal minimum age in your country.
