Overlay Alert: GGSOP MILLION$ Could Fall Short of $2m Guarantee
Table Of Contents
The GGSOP festival came with a whopping $6,500,000 guaranteed across its 54 events, with buy-ins ranging from $2.50 to $100! The festival draws to a close this weekend, but not before some of the most exciting tournaments of the festival crown their champions.
One tournament we think you should keep an eye out for is the GGSOP #53: $100 GGSOP MILLION$ which comes with a whopping $2,000,000 guaranteed for a $100 buy-in. The tournament needs close to 22,000 entries to reach its lofty guarantee and with just 17 flights remaining, it has attracted less than a third of that amount.
That's why PokerNews is here to give you all the key information you need in our newest series Overlay Alert!
