This Sunday could be one of the biggest days of the calendar year for online poker as several big tournaments are lined up this weekend.
Leading the pack is PokerStars’ Sunday Million 14th Anniversary edition which will be the biggest highlight of the Sunday grind. With a mammoth guaranteed prize pool of $12.5 million, this will be the operator’s biggest guaranteed online poker tournament in its history as well as the biggest online poker tournament of this year.
Over on partypoker, the operator is running its flagship tournament series, Powerfest. Dozens of big guaranteed tournaments are scheduled this Sunday including a $1 million guaranteed tournament.
Also, joining the party is 888’s Millions SuperStorm promotion which the operator has been running for over two months. The promotion culminates in a $1 million guaranteed tournament on Sunday.
GGPoker will be kicking off its High Rollers Week series this Sunday. $9 million is guaranteed across 96 tournaments that span for a week. Additionally, the network has also upped the guarantee of its biggest tournament, GG Masters. The tournament now boasts a $400,000 guaranteed prize pool—up from $300,000.
All these big events come at a time when the world is going through a global pandemic. The outbreak of coronavirus has sent countries worldwide into lockdown. Online poker traffic is soaring, with many online poker rooms experiencing traffic levels not seen for years.
However, many of these big events were planned well in advance and would have taken place anyway had the outbreak not taken place. But the impact of the outbreak will surely bring more players than a usual Sunday would as people across the globe are self-isolating by staying at home.
In fact, the spike in online poker traffic was already seen last Sunday with most of the online poker rooms reporting a 10% uptick.
If you are looking to play online poker, here are the three big online poker events to watch out for this weekend:
