The WPT Five Diamond World Poker Classic is an annual tournament as part of the World Poker Tour that is played out at Bellagio Resort & Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada.[1] It has been part of every season of the World Poker Tour after being the inaugural event in Season 1 (I) in 2002.[2]

History

The World Poker Tour's first-ever event was the WPT Five Diamond World Poker Classic that began on May 27, 2002.[2] Gus Hansen was crowned the first champion and also became the first player to final table this event twice when he finished third in Season 2 (II) behind eventual winner Paul Phillips.[3][4] Season 2 (II) would see the date of the event shifted to December where it currently remains on the schedule every season. In Season 3 (III) the buy-in was raised from $10,200 to $15,300 and Daniel Negreanu won the event.[5]

The $15,000 buy-in remained through to Season 8 (VIII) before it was reduced back to $10,000. In Season 9 (IX), Antonio Esfandiari won the event which would be the first of his three consecutive final table appearances as he finished sixth in Season 10 (X) and fourth in Season 11 (XI).[6] Andrew Lichtenberger also has three final tables in this event with two coming back-to-back in Season 10 (X) and Season 11 (XI).[7]

Two players have both won an event and finished runner-up. Ryan Tosoc finished second in Season 15 (XV) before winning in Season 16 (XVI), while Alex Foxen finished second in Season 16 (XVI) before winning in Season 18 (XVIII).[8][9]

The event was moved to October for Season 20 (XX), which was the first time it wasn't held in December since the inaugural season.[10] Chad Eveslage won his second WPT title and $1,042,300 after he defeated Steve Buckner.[11]

From Season 16 (XVI), the final tables were streamed on PokerGO.[12]
