Dates and flights
Day 1A to Day 1F run at 17:00 each evening from Monday 12 to Saturday 17 October 2026. A turbo Day 1G opens at 14:00 on Sunday 18 October, and the final day starts at 17:00 the same day.
Buy-in
500 soles, roughly USD 145 at mid-October 2026 rates. Re-entry costs the same, and a double is available for 1,000 soles. The final day has no separate buy-in.
The guarantee
100,000 soles announced. The 40,000-sol champion's prize is paid out of that guarantee, not added to it — worth reading carefully, because a headline first prize and a headline guarantee are often quoted as if they were two different pots.
The venue gap
The organiser has published Arequipa as the city since September and still had not named the casino when we re-read the schedule on 13 October 2026. We would rather leave the field empty than fill it with a guess.
