Apparently, it’s winter, and for many people, that means more poker! If you’re fortunate enough to have extra time during the holiday season, or if you want to make the most of what real money online poker currently has to offer by taking advantage of what the sun isn’t doing, then visit WPT Global and dive into the WPT Global Winter Festival, which boasts a tasty overall prize pool.
In reality, the series, which has just begun and runs through January 3rd, has $1,800,000 in guaranteed payouts over more than 20 events, including the $330 buy-in, $1 million GTD NLHE Main Event…
Small Buy-Ins, Large Prizes, and an Abundance of Formats
The current climate for poker enthusiasts is favorable, with inexpensive buy-ins and functionally large potential ceilings. Buy-ins vary from the cost of a cup of coffee to $330 for the Main Event. And, of course, you can anticipate a plethora of $3.30 buy-in satellites for many of the events, which is a tremendous bargain considering the stakes.
During the Winter Festival, there are a variety of formats to pick from, including Progressive KOs and Bounty Hunter tournaments, as well as Short Deck tournaments for those interested in the newest variations.
As for the Main Event itself, with 16 Flight events advancing to Day 2 (20% of each flight’s participants qualify), aspiring champions of the virtual green baize will have many opportunities to advance in their quest. Note that if you qualify for Day 2 more than once, the stack with the most chips will be utilized.
Whether you’re a seasoned online poker tournament veteran or a novice to the thrills and spills of tournament poker, this is too fantastic to pass up – something we can expect from the World Poker Tour’s online home.
