partypoker LIVE Returns to Sochi for MILLIONS Russia
The increasingly popular partypoker LIVE tour heads to Casino Sochi in August for the massive MILLIONS Russia festival where RUB 690 million (approx. $10.8 million) is guaranteed to be won.
MILLIONS Russia last took place in Sep. 2017 and saw 999 players enter the Main Event. Russia’s Aleksandr Gofman emerged victorious in this tournament to get his hands on $1 million. Gofman defeated Spain’s David Laka Calzada heads-up to secure the title, leaving the runner-up to bank $600,000.
This year’s MILLIONS Russia Main Event has RUB 300 million guaranteed. Featuring one online Day 1 and three live Day 1s, the MILLIONS Russia Main Event should be one of the best attended partypoker LIVE events of the year and thanks to some amazing promotions, it could also be one of the most profitable for the players.
partypoker LIVE recently launched its own currency called PP LIVE Dollars. Players can win this currency online at partypoker – there’s $1 million worth guaranteed each week – and then spend it on any partypoker LIVE event around the world, or even use it for travel and accommodation expenses.
The first 100 players to buy into the MILLIONS Russia Main Event with PP LIVE Dollars are automatically entered into a last longer competition where the last player standing wins $100,000 in addition to any winnings from the tournament.
Anyone who buys into the MILLIONS Main Event with PP LIVE Dollars will receive a discount on the buy-in so they only pay $5,000, a saving of almost $130 on the full buy-in price. What’s more, the final 10 players in the Main Event will win a $5,300 MILLIONS Online seat in addition to the prize money they secure for their top 10 finish.
Finally, the partypoker LIVE team will refund the cost of your visa if you visit the My partypoker LIVE desk during MILLIONS Russia and show your visa receipt.
