The GG Online Championship poker tournament series kicked off this weekend over at GGPoker with an outrageous total prize guarantee of $150 million. The new series runs from May 5 to May 31, parallel to the SCOOP on PokerStars. The GG Online Championship includes more than 100 individual events and more than 40 of those events have guaranteed seven-figure prize pools ($1,000,000 or more).

As with SCOOP, the events on GGPoker come in different buy-in tiers. There are four of these levels: low, medium, high and super high. Buy-ins range from $5 to $25,500 and, of course, there are satellites throughout that can be used to qualify for the tournaments for less money.

Highlights of the GG Online Championship

Highlights of the GG Online Championship include:

  • $50 MILLION$ Mini Main Event with $1,000,000 guaranteed (multiple flights each day).
  • $50 Omaholic MILLION$ with $250,000 guaranteed (multiple flights each day)
  • $400 GG Online Championship Spring Classic with $2,000,000 guaranteed (multiple flights May 16-22)
  • $10,300 Super MILLION$ Highroller Championship with $6,000,000 guaranteed (May 29)
  • $1,500 GG Online Championship Main Event with $8,000,000 guaranteed (May 29)
  • $10,300 Super MILLION$ Highroller Main Event with $10,000,000 guaranteed (Multiple start days)

GG Online Championship players will be automatically entered into a $500,000 leaderboard, with prizes offered for buy-in levels of High, Medium, and Low.

Daniel Negreanu, GGPoker Brand Ambassador stated: “It’s great to introduce a brand new tournament series for all GGPoker players to enjoy and the GG Online Championship is the biggest and best series ever. We’re doubling the guarantees that exist elsewhere! “

Negreanu is alluding to PokerStars, where the 2022 SCOOP guarantees around $75 million. Many players will likely be playing on both sites at the same time, but GGPoker has now clearly outdistanced its competitor PokerStars, at least in terms of guarantees.
