Autumn is Worth More than $300k on 888poker Ontario Autumn is Worth More than $300k on 888poker Ontario

With summer coming to a close and fall dawning, 888poker is looking to bring a little autumn cheer to Ontario online poker players with the XL Autumn Series. Beginning on September 17 and running for more than two weeks, the Ontario-specific version of the XL Autumn will have more than $300,000 guaranteed.

Running through until Oct 2, the XL Autumn Series has nearly 60 events spread across the two weeks of action beginning on September 17, with 33 of those games billed as numbered events, and the other 24 as side events with XL Autumn branding and boosted guarantees, but without the official event designation.

There are a few big games throughout the series on 888poker Ontario, but the biggest, as usual, will be the Mystery Bounty Main Event. With $50k guaranteed for $162, the Main Event offers more than $300 guaranteed for every dollar of buy-in ($GTD/$BI).

Two games on the schedule offer more than $300 $GTD/$BI, and the other game to crack that threshold comes in with a bit more value than the Main Event. There is $35k guaranteed in the Mystery Bounty Main Event Warmup, but with a buy-in of just $109, it comes in a bit higher than the full Main in terms of value.
