One of the under-the-radar summer poker gems released its schedule.

The Golden Nugget Grand Poker Series is set to run May 29 through July 3 this year. It will feature the usual assortment of daily and nightly events that typically populate the GPS schedule, as well as the ever-popular $570 Main Event which will once again carry a $500K guarantee and feature three starting days — June 29-30 this year, with the finale on July 1.

The past couple of years, the Grand Poker Series Main Event has drawn over 1,500 players (2016) and 2,000 players (2017), awarding over $100,000 to the winner each year despite deals being made in both cases. Five players banked north of $60,000 last year.

The recreational-heavy fields and low buy-ins make the Golden Nugget's tournaments a popular attraction for players with shorter bankrolls looking for softer events. The location on Fremont Street also provides a chance to get away from the main strip and experience a different part of Las Vegas.
