*Please note that this promotion is not available to those in CIS countries.
3) Daily $20,000 Spin & Gold Leaderboard
Perhaps the daily free Spin & Gold ticket you played every day got you in the mood to play more Spin & Gold tournaments.
The good news is that the biggest grinders of these lottery-style games will be rewarded handsomely with $20,408 in cash and Spin & Gold tickets given away every day to 550 players at a variety of stakes.
Climbing the daily leaderboard is easy as long as you are dedicated to the grind.
Simply register for as many Spin & Gold games as you can during a day at a stake you are comfortable playing. You will get points for each one you play. Second place will get double the points, while the winner will get triple the points.
The leaderboards are separated by stakes so low stakes players won't be competing against high stakes players and vice versa.
Here is a look at the different prizes players will share at a variety of stakes every day in October:
| Stakes | Daily Prize Pool | Spots Paid |
|---|---|---|
| $50 | $8,700 | 50 |
| $20 | $5,050 | 50 |
| $10 | $2,760 | 50 |
| $5 | $1,380 | 50 |
| $3 | $1,210 | 50 |
| $1 | $876 | 100 |
| $0.25 | $432 | 200 |
| Total | $20,408 | 550 |
$50 stakes leaderboard pays cash with the rest of the leaderboards paying out in Spin & Gold tickets.
Doing a little math, this is $631,648 given away by GGPoker in this promotion alone in October. Can you afford not to get your hands on some of it?
4) All-In or Fold Daily Prizes
All-In or Fold games are all the rage at GGPoker, especially if you just want a quick session or to blow off some steam.
You can get a free buy-in every day simply by grinding out 100 hands. The hands go quickly, so you might even be able to do this at multiple stakes and games and get a handful of free buy-ins a day.
The cash games are available in both no-limit hold'em (NLHE) and pot-limit Omaha (PLO). You will need to buy-in for eight big blinds for hold'em while just four big blinds in Omaha.
The hold'em games are all-in or fold preflop while in Omaha every player sees a free flop and this decides if they are all-in or fold. Players that build up a stack can choose to keep it all on the table or can reduce it back down to the minimum balances.
This promotion is one of the easiest to take advantage of as you aren't competing against other players for a prize, rather you just need to play 100 hands at a specific stake and game to get a free buy-in into your account.
5) Rush & Cash Daily $33K Leaderboard
Rush & Cash is GGPoker's version of fast-fold poker. Here's a quick breakdown of how the action works in case you aren't familiar with these games.
You pick a game either NLHE or PLO then decide on what stakes you want to play from $0.01/0.02 on up to $1/$2. You will then be entered into a playing pool with your first table randomly assigned.
You will be whisked away to a new table with new players whenever you are finished with a hand either by folding or going all the way to showdown. This allows you to constantly see new players while also getting in many more hands per hour than you would playing at a standard PLO or NLHE cash game table.
GGPoker juicened things up in October and will award $34,427 to the top grinders of these games across 14 different leaderboards. This comes to a whopping $1,067,237 GGPoker will give away to Rush & Cash players throughout October.
Here is a look at the daily leaderboards broken out by stakes and games:
| Stakes | Daily Prize NLHE | Spots Paid NLHE | Daily Prize PLO | Spots Paid PLO |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| $1/$2 | $6,950 | 25 | $5,000 | 15 |
| $0.50/$1 | $6,500 | 40 | $2,825 | 20 |
| $0.25/$0.50 | $3,000 | 40 | $1,812.50 | 25 |
| $0.10/$0.25 | $2,423.75 | 100 | $1,296.50 | 50 |
| $0.05/$0.10 | $1,402.50 | 100 | $786.50 | 50 |
| $0.02/$0.05 | $1,087.50 | 200 | $547.50 | 50 |
| $0.01/$0.02 | $512 | 200 | $283 | 50 |
| Total | $21,876 | 705 | $12,551 | 260 |
Climbing the leaderboard is easy to understand as you get one point for each raked hand you play at a certain stake and game.
6) Hold'em Daily $20K Leaderboard
Hold'em cash players aren't confined to Rush & Cash to get some rewards as traditional NLHE cash game players can be rewarded handsomely as well in the Hold'em Daily $20K Leaderboard.
The title is an understatement with actually $21,194 awarded daily to the top 845 players across nine different stakes. Each stake will have a separate leaderboard with a separate prize pool as follows:

| $0.01/$0.02 | $169.50 | 200 |

Climbing the leaderboard is the same as Rush & Cash where you are awarded one point for each raked hand.
7) Omaha Daily $20K Leaderboard

The top 643 players every day will go home with a share of $21,003. This means GGPoker will be giving away $651,078 in October alone to the top Omaha grinders.
