The online series boasts a 50 million chip guarantee and will feature six Gold Millions events, 76 Crown Series tournaments, and four WPT trophy events.
The timing is no accident. ClubWPT Gold is clearly positioning itself as the online alternative for players during poker’s busiest season.
To mark the occasion, Octopi is giving all new users 20 percent off annual subscriptions if they use the code HELLMUTH. The deal drops the Personal Plan to $160 and the Professional Plan to $480 for a year.
If that is not enough, you can still stack the POKERFUSE code for two free months, letting you try out the solver before committing.
You can spot the boosted tournaments by the green badge next to their name in the lobby.
The daily majors, all named after US presidents, now have even more reason to get your attention, with added prizes on top of the guarantees. For example:
With only days remaining until the 57th WSOP kicks off, all online bracelet events have now been deployed on the WSOP Online platform. As expected, the series will once again run on the existing 888poker-powered software, with no sign of a transition to GGPoker yet.
WSOP’s software agreement with 888 expires this year, meaning this could potentially be the final online bracelet series held on the current platform unless the partnership is renewed.
For now, a move to GGPoker also appears uncertain. NSUS, the parent company of GGPoker, had its manufacturing license withdrawn in Pennsylvania, raising further questions about the timeline for any future migration to GGPoker.
Despite that, they’re going even bigger with their flagship Sunday tournaments.
The Sunday Dynasty’s guarantee is jumping from $75,000 to $100,000, and the Sunday Storm is getting a $10,000 bump as well. It seems one successful Sunday was enough to convince the team to go all-in on bigger numbers.
Last year, Remi Alamin took his shot at poker glory, surviving Day 1. This year, Aleksandar Kozomara went deeper in Prague, making it to Day 3 and cashing €12,500.
This time, GGPoker is hosting three turbo freerolls for the r/poker community. The winner gets a $10,000 WSOP Main Event pass. All you need is an active r/poker account, a verified GGPoker account, and to be at least 21.

The Reddit poker community is heading back to the World Series of Poker, and again, we’re sending someone to the biggest stage in poker: the $10,000 WSOP Main Event in Las Vegas.
The top 15 players each week earn a share of 575 SC and a stack of free Spin & Go tickets, simply by playing as many games as they can during the period. The more you play, and the higher the buy-in, the more points you rack up.
There is also a side promotion: play in daily MTTs like Daily 22, Daily 5.50, or even hourly freerolls and you could score free Spin & Go tickets if you make the final tables.
Without a clear timeline, players are headed elsewhere whilst Stars remains shuttered.
They better not wait too long too launch or it may be hard attracting people back…
The site first announced 700,000 concurrent players, then 800,000, and finally crossed the 900,000 mark as the day went on.
The GG World Festival is offering $300 million in guaranteed prize money and runs through June 9. Even on weekdays, GGPoker is boasting over 400,000 concurrent players, a number its competitors can only dream of.
Of the 90 tournaments, 80 failed to meet their guarantees, resulting in more than $1 million in overlays. That means PokerStars on FanDuel had to contribute close to 15 percent of the total prize pool from its own pocket.
This was one of the best value series players have seen in years in the regulated US market. The biggest miss came in the $300 Main Event, which had a $500,000 guarantee but failed to get there.
The update went live on April 30 and brings changes to both desktop and mobile clients. The most notable tweak is a major overhaul to the tournament lobby, making it lighter, easier to read, and more user-friendly.
The redesign swaps out the old dark background for a lighter one and introduces new icons to help players quickly spot tournament formats. According to the article, these adjustments aim to reduce eye strain and improve the overall player experience.
PokerStars is marking its 25th anniversary with an ambitious $50 million guaranteed tournament series.
The series, called the Anniversary Series, runs from May 10 to June 3 and includes special editions of iconic PokerStars events. Buy-ins range from $5 to $15,000, meaning there’s something for most players, at least in theory.
Sundays are the centerpiece, with highlights like the Sunday Million and a 15th Anniversary Sunday Storm boasting a $500,000 guarantee for just $11. Qualifiers are already underway, with some starting as low as $0.50.
So GGPoker recently pushed out a software update with some table UI changes, but early reactions haven’t exactly been great.
James Mackenzie, a former PokerStars ambassador, said he’s already feeling eye strain because of the smaller cards and fonts. Over on the 2+2 forums, players are bringing up similar issues; some say they can barely make out their hole cards after folding, especially if they want to keep track of how the hand plays out.
Another common complaint is that player tags are now really hard to see.
Ok guys, buckle up for something unprecedented.
So GGPoker has been known for running massive online series, and somehow every time they manage to outdo themselves.
This time, the GG World Festival is coming in with a mammoth $300 million guaranteed. Not too long ago, even hitting $100 million for a series felt like a huge stretch for the industry. Fast forward a few years, multiple operators have crossed that mark, but GGPoker just keeps pushing the ceiling higher.
They’ve already gone through $150M, $200M, $250M series… and now this.
At this point, it honestly feels like the sky isn’t the limit for them. By the time this wraps up, it could end up being bigger than a lot of live WSOP editions (basically, most of them pre-2021).
The series runs from May 3 to June 9.
The series kicks off May 3 and guarantees $300 million across hundreds of tournaments.
Players of all bankrolls can get involved. The buy-ins start at just $3 and go up to $10,000. There are four main tiers, with each offering comparable formats and structures. The festival also runs a $3 million leaderboard promotion, so there are prizes even for consistency, not just big scores.
Players in Pennsylvania, Michigan, West Virginia, and Delaware can join the fun, with buy-ins starting as low as $10 and satellites already underway.
The highlights are the Sunday events, featuring bigger guarantees and giving the largest player pool a shot at the biggest prizes. According to Zvonimir, the crown jewel is the $200 Main Event on May 17, boasting a $40,000 guarantee. There’s also a $500 Super High Roller and a $20 Mini Main.
There is $1.25 million in leaderboard prizes up for grabs, split across low, medium, and high stakes. All cash game formats are eligible, from Texas Hold’em to Short Deck.
Meanwhile, the GG World Festival kicks off at the same time, promising $300 million in guaranteed tournament prizes. GGPoker is giving cash game players a reason to log some extra hands this spring, with every real money hand counting towards the leaderboard.
Last night, PokerStars on FanDuel saw two players picking up some serious cash after taking down two marquee events.
Ignite Series continues for the rest of the week, with more big guarantees to come, so don’t miss your opportunity to get in the mix.
PokerStars joining forces with FanDuel has brought a new rewards scheme called Dynasty Builder.
The program splits players into two camps: the casuals get 'Thrill Missions’ for easy rewards like tickets and avatars, while the regulars can grind through tougher missions for more value.
The idea is to keep the old PokerStars crowd satisfied while luring in FanDuel’s sports and casino players.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with firing up an online tournament session on a Tuesday evening, whether you’re serious about poker or just looking to unwind.
And, if you’re playing from New Jersey, Michigan, or Pennsylvania, FanDuel Poker is the place to be as Ignite Series continues tonight, with a few more valuable events, including the $35 Super Tuesday with $35,000 guaranteed.
The Dynasty Builder features two types of missions: Thrill Missions for casuals and Grind Missions for the more dedicated.
Thrill Missions are recurring and easy, offering tournament tickets and cosmetic perks, while Grind Missions cater to the more serious players.
