The shape of the schedule
Twelve numbered events over eleven days, and the spread of buy-ins is wide for a Circuit stop: $300 at the bottom, $3,000 at the top, with most of the schedule sitting between $400 and $600. Four events use multiple starting flights, which is what makes the stop practical for anyone who cannot take the whole eleven days off.
The $300 Gladiator Turbo is the extreme case — eight flights, one at 8pm every evening from 5 to 12 November. The $1,700 Main Event has five flights spread from 7 to 13 November, including two on the Friday, one of them a late 8pm start on a faster 20-minute clock before it joins the 60-minute structure.
Structures
Stacks and clocks track the buy-in closely. The $300 and $400 turbos start with 25,000 chips on 20-minute levels. The $500 and $600 events get 30,000 on 30 minutes. The Main Event gets 50,000 on 40-minute levels rising to 60, and the $3,000 High Roller gets 40,000 on 40 minutes. Late registration runs to the start of level 11 on most events, and to level 13 on the Main Event and the $3,000 High Roller. Every event on the schedule allows unlimited re-entry.
Omaha on the schedule
Three of the twelve are pot-limit Omaha: a $400 four-card turbo on 11 November, a $400 four-card championship with double the clock on 12 November, and a $600 event on 13 November that alternates four-card and five-card Omaha.
Two stops, two hotels
Panama City hosted the Circuit twice in 2026 and used a different property each time. The May edition, 7 to 17 May, was played at the Hotel Hilton Panamá on Balboa Avenue. This November edition is at Sortis. Check the venue for the stop you are travelling to rather than assuming it has stayed put.
What is not on the published schedule
The operator's schedule page lists flight dates and start times but does not date Day 2s or final days, and it publishes no guarantees and no ring designations. We have not filled any of those in from elsewhere. Treat the end dates on our event pages as the last flight the operator published, not as the day a trophy is handed out.
