Official Poker Training Partner of the WSOP, reshaping how fans watch the action and how champions prepare for it

Las Vegas, Nevada, June 2026

The World Series of Poker (WSOP), the most prestigious poker tournament series in the world, has named GTO Wizard its Official Poker Training Partner for the 2026 summer series at Paris Las Vegas and Horseshoe Las Vegas. Several weeks in, the partnership is already changing how fans watch the action, and how the world's best players prepare for it.

GTO Wizard is the largest and most trusted poker training platform in the world. It is powered by GTO Wizard AI, the state-of-the-art poker solver. Players can study any spot they have faced in their own game, practice against the AI with instant feedback, and analyze their hands to find and fix leaks. From weekend recreational players to the elite professionals chasing bracelets, it is the complete environment for mastering the game away from the table, which is exactly why serious players have made it part of their daily routine.

At the 2026 World Series of Poker, that presence is impossible to miss. GTO Wizard branding is displayed prominently across the iconic Mothership Stage, and the platform is integrated directly into the live broadcast experience.

Bringing GTO to the Broadcast: The Optimal Play Segment

Viewers tuning into the 2026 WSOP live streams are likely already familiar with one of the partnership's most visible features: the GTO Wizard "Optimal Play" graphic. Appearing during key hands at final tables, the segment delivers live solver analysis for the audience, showing the GTO-preferred action in a given spot and whether the player at the table chose to follow theory or deviate from it.

The feature has quickly become a standout element of the broadcast, letting fans watch the world's best and learn from them at the same time, a window into how modern poker is played at the highest level.

"Our partnership with the WSOP brings together the world's most advanced poker training technology with the most iconic brand in poker. For all of us at GTO Wizard, this is a tremendous honor. The WSOP is not just a tournament series, it is where poker history is made, and being part of that story is something our entire team is incredibly proud of."
— Matt, CEO of GTO Wizard
"GTO Wizard has become the unquestioned leader in advanced poker training and one of the best ways for players to accelerate their pursuit of a WSOP bracelet."
— Ty Stewart, CEO of World Series of Poker

GTO Wizard Ambassadors Making Their Mark

The partnership extends well beyond the broadcast booth. Several GTO Wizard ambassadors are competing across the 2026 WSOP schedule.

Samuel Mullur, one of tournament poker's most exciting young talents and a fixture on the Triton circuit, showed exactly what elite preparation looks like with a 6th-place finish in Event 41, the $250,000 Super High Roller. Speaking to PokerNews during the series, Mullur was unequivocal about the role GTO Wizard plays in his game:

"It is the easiest solver to use, and also the best and biggest library on the market. I use it every day, all day basically, and I think it helps a lot with preparation. They are making some really good and smart business moves, and it is a big part of my studying."
— Samuel Mullur, GTO Wizard Ambassador

He is joined by Shiina Okamoto, the reigning two-time WSOP Ladies Championship winner and one of the most accomplished players in the field. The Tokyo-born pro has been a dominant force in the event since 2023, when she finished runner-up before capturing back-to-back titles and bracelets in 2024 and 2025. No player has ever won the Ladies Championship three years in a row, a record Okamoto has the chance to set in 2026.

Alongside Okamoto on the GTO Wizard roster is Espen Jorstad, the 2022 WSOP Main Event champion, whose run to poker's biggest title stands among the platform's proudest ambassador moments.

The New Standard: Preparation Matters More Than Ever

Mullur's comments reflect a shift that is now clearly visible at the WSOP. Concepts like GTO, range construction, exploitation, and ICM awareness have become an increasingly important part of how top players prepare for the game's biggest events.

GTO Wizard exists to make that level of preparation accessible to everyone. Whether you are a recreational player looking to plug leaks, or a serious tournament grinder preparing for a $10,000 Main Event, the platform provides the tools, the content, and the training environment to close the gap. The presence of GTO Wizard at the WSOP is a reminder that the best in the world do not leave their preparation to chance.
