The two events that every GGPoker players want to win are the Mini Main Event and the Main Event.

Battle of Malta #11: Mini Main Event has several Day 1s taking place each day up to November 15 when Day 2 takes place. It only costs $55 to enter yet GGPoker has slapped a $1 million guarantee on its prize pool, which is pretty ridiculous.
