Welcome to the Day 1a coverage of the $10,300 Super MILLION$ Main Event at GGPoker. The tournament kicks off at 6 p.m. GMT (1 p.m. EST) and boasts a massive $10 million guaranteed prize pool.
The GGPoker Super MILLION$ Week features a huge $30 million in guaranteed prizes across 31 events.
Today's opening day of the festival is one of the biggest with seven events kicking off with at least $1 million in guaranteed prizes each, including the start of today's big Main Event.
GGPoker really stepped it up a notch with the festival's crown jewel in the Super MILLION$ Main Event. This event boasts a $10,300 buy-in along with a massive $10 million guarantee for double the $5 million guarantee this event featured as part of High Rollers Week in November.
Davidi Kitai shipped the Global MILLION$ Main Event during November's High Roller Week for $726,839 with a much bigger payday looming for whomever wins it this time around as that event featured a $5 million guarantee instead of $10 million.
The Super MILLION$ Main Event boasts four opening flights on Feb. 28, March 2, March 6, and March 7. The tournament will be played eight-handed throughout Day 1 with the eventual final table slated as a nine-max affair.
Players will begin the action with a 100,000 starting stack, good for 200 big blinds to begin the day. Blind levels will increase slowly at every 20-minutes and there will be a six-minute break every 55-minutes past the hour.
Players will have plenty of chances to build a monster stack as they can re-enter an unlimited amount of times during the long 16-level late-registration window during each of the four opening flights. Each opening flight will end after 22 blind levels are in the books.
Surviving opening flight players will then battle it out on Day 2 on Monday, March 8 at 6 p.m. GMT (1 p.m. EST) and conclude when just nine players remain. Randy "nanonoko" Lew and Kevin "RotterdaM" van der Kooi will host a live stream of the final table when it kicks off the following day at 6 p.m. GMT (1 p.m. EST) at the GGPoker YouTube channel.
This dynamic duo will also be commentating on the final table of another big event in the $2.5 million guaranteed Event #6: $25,500 Super High Roller on March 2 at 6 p.m. GMT (1 p.m. EST).
The PokerNews live reporting team will be bringing all of the action as the day unfolds, so stay tuned starting at 6 p.m. GMT (1 p.m. EST)!
