GGMasters Continues to Overlay
Meanwhile, GG Masters—the biggest guaranteed tournament at GGPoker continue to fall short of its guarantees. On all nine occasions it has run, the tournament has overlayed with the last week seeing an overlay of over $10,000.
The tournament is quite ambitious as it guarantees $300,000 in prize money for an accessible buy-in of $150 but allows no re-entries. It also comes with its own dedicated Player of the Year leaderboard, the winner of which has a chance to become an ambassador for the GGPoker network valued at $500,000.
The remaining top 10 players will receive a package with free tickets to 2021 GG Masters tournaments each worth $7800.
