Big One for One Drop

Mind Sport World Championships

The Big One for One Drop is a $1,000,000 buy-in no-limit Texas hold'em poker tournament first hosted in 2012 and, for its first four editions, hosted with the World Series of Poker. It became the highest buy-in poker tournament in history as well as the largest single payout offered. The event was hosted again in 2014, 2016 and 2018, and it returned in December 2023, hosted by the World Poker Tour during the WPT World Championship at Wynn Las Vegas. A percentage of each buy-in is donated to the One Drop Foundation, an international non-profit created by the founder of Cirque du Soleil that works to ensure access to safe water and sanitation.
