GG Million$ Week Returns to GG Poker

There are 63 tournaments on the schedule, with the lowest buy-in event costing $525 to enter and the most expensive $10,300. There is $20m in prize money guaranteed across the series.

The $10,300 main event of the GG Million$ week is run as a Phase tournament and carries a $5m prize pool with $1m reserved for the winner. There are starting days running throughout the festival week, with day 2 of the tournament resuming on Monday 8th April, when they will lay down to the final table.

The final table itself will be held on Tuesday 9th April, the final day of the series.

It’s an extensive schedule, with 63 tournaments, including the $10,300 Main Event. There are several Omaholic mtts, as well as regular No Limit Hold’em tournaments, Deepstacks and Bounty Hunters. There are at least five tournaments per day, with the most running on Sundays, as is traditional in the online poker world. 

The kick-off event on Sunday 31st March is a Bounty Hunter and has a $525 buy-in, with a $1.5m guaranteed prize pool.

To take part in the series, players need to be registered as account holders of GG Poker. The bonus code for GGPoker is wired. This code can be used by new players when registering to claim the poker room's best available welcome bonus.

While there is indeed a thriving community of high rollers who can think almost nothing of clicking away and entering multiple high stakes tournaments as their evening grind, the vast majority of mere poker mortals cannot afford to do so. Gladly there is an extensive satellite system in place to give the unwashed masses their shot at the poker equivalent of a hot shower.  

There are a variety of variously priced satellites into most of the events on the schedule. While its entirely possible that a further layer of satellite options will be added when the week gets fully underway, at present the lowest buy-in satellites available are priced at $12. There are also $26, $55, $108 $525 and $1,050 satellites listed in the GG Poker client.

Not only can you watch the action unfold to see who will scoop the first prize of at least $1m, but its also going to be possible to have a wager on it as GG Poker will open a betting market on the final table prior to the restart of play.

He would be the short priced-favourite to be the first to breach the $10m earnings barrier, if they even did a betting market on it. Bert ‘GrirafGanger7’ Stevens, who won the WSOP Online Main Event last October is only 35th on the all-time leaderboard, but will also be fancied to have a good week at the series this time around.
