Or does He have a "free pass", like a "Get Out of Jail Free" card in Monopoly and just walk right in?

The Pope gets no free ride. In fact, he probably will have a harder time of it than we will.
Much will be required of the person entrusted with much, and still more will be demanded of the person entrusted with more. (Luke 12:48)
There may have even been some Popes who did not make it to heaven.
With love in Christ.

Of Course he would have to wait! He is not any more special than any of us!! Actually why do we think he is better than us? All by himself, having all the leisure and time at his disposal, food cooked and served and no family responsibilities and sorrows, life is bound to be easy!
It is us, NORMAL SINNERS AND PEOPLE, who live a tough life and suffer all that comes so God must not be so biased and grant us our due as we are the ones who despite all the crap in life managed to keep standing tall, didn't we??!!! :)

As those who preach a gospel different from the apostolic one are accursed (Gal. 1:6-9), and which Rome most assuredly does, the Pope will hear such words as, "And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity." (Mat 7:23).

The Pope is a sinner whose position is based upon the premise of a perpetuated Petrine papacy, but which is not warranted by Scripture, and in reality finds it's foundation in the Roman Empire, resulting in an unBiblical, autocratic Cesario papacy, and perverse promulgations and perfunctory practices, the effect of which has been to produce past generations and a present populace of people that are Biblically ignorant, trusting principally in the supposed powers of Rome and their own merit to save them, and who typically are apathetic or antagonistic toward the preaching of the Bibilical gospel of grace, which saves those who humble themselves as unworthy sinners, utterly unable to gain Heaven not escape Hell, but who thus repent directly to God, and trust directly in th Lord Jesus to save them. To God be the glory!

Sounds large! i could recommend additionally beginning up a Christian-themed brothel referred to as "Crucifux" the place nuns in leather-based can remind the Johns how naughty they are, and dole out desirable punishment.

I don't think the pope will be waiting at any "pearly gates."

No, only the blood of Jesus qualifies a person to enter heaven.

When we all die, we must first account for our life styles, and change them as necessary
Heaven can only accept you as a repented sinner. And be baptized with immersion baptism.
Since the pope was sprinkled only, he must change his way and doctrines, before he can enter Paradise.

He has the same chances as anyone else: Heaven, perhaps with some preliminary purgatory, or hell.
