GGPoker has announced its GGPoker World Festival, a prestigious online poker tournament series. This event, beginning on May 5 and running until June 11, promises an engaging experience for poker enthusiasts around the world. The 2024 edition of this tournament series is particularly noteworthy, with GGPoker offering an unparalleled $250M in guaranteed prize money, marking a significant increase from last year’s $200M.
This year’s festival is designed to accommodate players at all skill levels, featuring a wide range of tournaments divided into four distinct buy-in categories: the Low Tier starts at $2.50, Medium Tier at $25, High Tier at $150, and the Super Tier at $1,050. This structure ensures that regardless of a player’s budget or experience, there’s a place for them at the table.
To broaden participation, GGPoker is providing satellite tournaments throughout the series, offering players a chance to qualify for major events at a fraction of the cost. Adding to the excitement, the tournament will also include a competitive leaderboard with $2.5 million in extra prizes. This leaderboard will reward players across all tiers, distributing a total of $250K for Low Tier, $500K for Medium Tier, $750K for High Tier, and $1M for Super Tier winners, based on their performance in the series.
Broadcast details for various events are to be announced, with plans to stream on GGPoker.tv, allowing fans to follow the action live.
Daniel Negreanu, GGPoker’s Global Ambassador, shared his enthusiasm about the upcoming series, stating, “Let the festivities begin on May 5 as we continue our tradition of revolutionizing poker year-on-year! We made history in 2023, and now, with $50 million in additional prize guarantees, the GGPoker World Festival is bigger and better than ever!”
