Fresh off the biggest Pickle Money Ball event to date in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, the tour is heading across the country to Seattle for the next stop on the Road to Vegas.

The Seattle Super Series Qualifier will be held Nov. 19-22 at Side Out Tsunami, an indoor facility with 26 courts located near downtown Seattle.

Pickle Money Ball has been steadily gaining momentum throughout 2026, hosting prior events in Arizona, Texas and Florida, and paying out huge prize money to all amateur divisions – from 3.5 and under to 5.0+. The last event in Fort Lauderdale drew more than 550 players and had a $625,000 total prize pool.

“We put meaningful prize money on the line and created opportunities for players to compete and win money,” Deen said. “The response has been incredible, and it reinforces what we’ve believed from the beginning: When you invest in the players and give them something worth competing for, they show up. With every event, we’re seeing stronger competition, greater participation and continued momentum.”

A chance to qualify for West Coast Regional in Mesa

The Seattle Super Series Qualifier will feed into the Pickle Money Ball West Coast Regional at Arizona Athletic Grounds in Mesa, Arizona, which will be held Feb. 4-7, 2027.

The Top 4 finishers in each division in Seattle will earn free entry into the Mesa event, and will then have the chance to qualify for the Pickle Money Ball National Championship, which will feature the largest total amateur payout in pickleball history of more than $1 million.

The National Championship will be held at the Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino in Las Vegas from July 26-31, 2027.

Deen says this structure allows players to enter into the Super Series events (like the one in Seattle) for a relatively low cost (about $100 per division) with the chance to ladder up into the bigger events like the West Coast Regional and National Championship, where they can earn significantly more money on a free roll.

The West Coast Regional in Mesa has already gotten a significant number of entries and could be the first Pickle Money Ball event to have more than 1,000 players, Deen said.

Big money on the line in Seattle

The Seattle Super Series Qualifier will feature a slightly different payout structure from past events. Pickle Money Ball will pay out 80% of the entry fee money in prize purses. The number of entries in each division will determine how many spots finish in the money. Deen said they will pay one place for every four entries.

So if there are 16 teams in the bracket, the Top 4 will earn prize money. A 17th entry would mean 5th place will finish in the money.

What players are saying about Pickle Money Ball events

Players have praised the Pickle Money Ball format as well as the organization and communication at the events. In every division, players and teams play a round robin/pool play, which then determines seeding for a single-elimination bracket.

That means participants are guaranteed to play several games. Divisions are determined by a player’s DUPR rating.

“The communication from everyone here and just how well this tournament was organized was amazing,” said Romina Casanova, who walked away with $2,000 after winning the 4.49 and under mixed doubles division in Fort Lauderdale. “All I really had to focus on was my game and talking to my partner.”
