If you love tournament poker but don’t have an 888poker account yet, you are going to want to get yourself one because from Sept. 17-25, 888poker is hosting the $4 Million Super XL Series.

The Super XL Series has 40 events, with combined guaranteed prize pools of $4 million, played over the course of nine days. Buy ins start as low as $5 and increase up to a whopping $2,100, meaning there is a Super XL Series tournament for everyone regardless of the size of their bankroll.

Three events are scheduled on opening night, with one of them guaranteeing $100,000 will be won. The $88 buy-in Crazy 8 Super XL Kickoff sits everyone down with 8,888 chips and play to 20-minute blind levels.

Should you dust off your stack at any point, unlimited $88 rebuys for 8,888 chips are available, but only once your stack reads “zero.” This opening tournament also awards its champion a package to the 888Live London Festival, worth $2,500!

Players with smaller bankrolls can also get into some Crazy 8 action for only $8.80. This event guarantees $10,000 will be won.

Sunday, Sept. 25 is a date you want to commit to memory because this is Main Event Day! The $1,050 buy-in Super XL Series Main Event kicks off at 6:00 p.m. on Sept. 25 and guarantees at least $1.5 million will be won.

There are also $5 buy-in and $160 buy-in Mini and Micro Main Events with $15,000 and $150,000 guaranteed, plus a $109 buy-in $30,000 guaranteed Turbo Main Event and a $75 buy-in $15,000 guaranteed Super Turbo Main Event, the latter bringing the curtain down on the $4 million series.
