GGMasters: GGPoker’s Massive Freezeout
Head to GGPoker this weekend if you’re a fan of freezeout tournaments. Freezeouts are something of a rarity in the online poker world these days, so seeing one with a $500,000 guaranteed prize pool is most welcome.
The GGMasters shuffles up and deals at 5:00 p.m. GMT on February 21. Buying in direct costs $150, although there are satellites running around the clock that start at a mere $1.50. Regardless of how you enter, you sit down with 10,000 chips and play to a 12-minute clock where the blinds start at 25/50/5a,
Last weekend’s GGMasters drew in a crowd of 3,794 players who created a $523,572 prize pool, way more than the advertised $500,000 guarantee. The top 611 players cashed and “L1mpFold”, the last player standing, collected a cool $54,631 after a heads-up deal with runner-up “flipdiaz” who scooped $49,720.

Sign Off The Week With The Main Sunday Sweat
Betfair Poker’s Main Sunday Sweat is one of the site’s most popular multi-table tournaments and it’s easy to see why.
This €100 buy-in tournament has €10 satellites feeding into it all weekend, making it accessible to even more Betfair Poker players. For that €100 investment, you receive 10,000 chips and play to blinds starting at 25/50/4a; they increase every 10-minutes.
Unlike the GGMasters tournament mentioned above, you can re-enter the Main Sunday Sweat once during the first 11 levels of play. The rewards for taking this event down are substantial thanks to the €30,000 guarantee Betfair Poker places in the prize pool.
You may want to check out the Rebuy Rumble tournaments while considering playing the Main Sunday Sweat. A handful of these €3 and €5 buy-in rebuy tournaments, which have €1,000 and €1,500 guarantees, are scheduled to run this weekend.

15th Anniversary Sunday Million Mega Satellites
PokerStars recently announced the details for the 15th anniversary edition of the long-running Sunday Million. It is a $215 buy-in event with a staggering $12.5 million guaranteed prize pool, which will award at least two $1 million prizes!
The tournament needs 62,500 entrants to hit the massive guarantee, so it is unsurprising to see scores of satellites feeding into it. There are a few dozen Sunday Million 15th Anniversary Mega Sat tournaments running across the weekend. They come with buy-ins of $11 and $22 and have between two and 10x $215 seats guaranteed.
Brush up on your satellite strategy and see if you can bag yourself a $215 seat to the $12.5 million guaranteed 15th Anniversary edition of the Sunday Million.
