Structure and Schedule

The WSOP is expecting a big turnout for the inaugural GGMillion$ High Roller No-Limit Hold'em event, as evidenced by the pair of starting flights. Flight A begins at 12:00 p.m. local time on May 31, with Flight B getting underway at the same time on June 1.

Regardless of which flight players enter, they sit down with a 100,000 starting stack and will play to 60-minute levels. Each flight ends after completing 10 levels, with 15-minute breaks every two levels and a 60-minute dinner break after Level 6 (approx. 6:30 p.m. local time).

Late registration remains open until the end of Level 12, at around 2:15 p.m. local time on Day 2. While late registration is open, deep-pocketed players can make unlimited re-entries.

Day 2 starts at 12:00 p.m. local time on June 2. Another 10 levels are planned, with 15-minute breaks every couple of levels, and a 60-minute dinner break after Level 16 (approx. 6:30 p.m. local time).

The penultimate Day 3 also starts at 12:00 p.m. local time, but this time, the play continues until only five players remain. A 15-minute break every two levels gives players a deserved rest, with the 60-minute dinner break after Level 26 (approx. 6:30 p.m. local time) giving them a chance to properly refuel.

The final five return to their seats from 12:00 p.m. local time on June 4, where they will continue playing until a champion is crowned. Although 15-minute breaks every two levels are confirmed, a decision on a dinner break will be made during play.

Why is This Event Significant?

The $10,000 GGMillion$ High Roller No-Limit Hold'em could be massive in every sense of the word. Although its attendance is unlikely to approach that of the $10,000 Main Event, with unlimited re-entries until early in Day 2 and it being early in the series when players are fresh and their bankrolls plentiful, the field size and prize pool should be impressive.

This is the first GGPoker-branded WSOP event in Las Vegas since the online poker giant's parent company acquired the WSOP for $500 million in October 2024. You can bet your bottom dollar that everything possible is being done to make this tournament special.
