Yes. Those numbers are indeed correct, as Partypoker announced the biggest ever guaranteed prize pool in online poker history.
It was not too long ago when Jonathan "sordykrd" Van Fleet has taken down the 2017 MILLIONS Online $5,300 Main Event for a whopping $1.027 million. But it seems like this number is not going to stay on the top of the list at Partypoker, as they quadruple this year's - also astounding - $5 million guaranteed prize pool next year.
As of today, 2010 WCOOP Main Event is the biggest ever online tournament with a prize pool of $12,215,000. Tyson "POTTERPOKER" Marks was the lucky one to take down the title and the staggering $2,278,097.50 first place prize. It's safe to say that the winner of the next year's MILLIONS Main Event will break this record, the only question is who it will be.
Poor Tyson's going to be dethroned soon - we feel sorry for him
Good news for all of you out there, that even if you don't want to risk a huge chunk of money, you can get an opportunity to hit a life-changing score since Partypoker plans on giving away free seats worth over $3 million combined to the event via satellites and other promotions.
They announced two additional ways to get into the mix. The online poker room will host a MILLIONS Online Leaderboard every week where the top 10 finishers each week will be awarded a $5,300 ticket to the event. They'll also offer mid and low leaderboards where they give away $22, $109 and $530 tickets to the top 20 players. This promotion starts on February 5.
Players can also qualify by playing live since Partypoker will be rewarding the top 10 players in every Partypoker LIVE MILLIONS Main Event next year. The first event on this list will be Partypoker LIVE MILLIONS Germany - kicking off on February 10th at King's Casino Rozvadov.
It seems like the online poker site really pays much attention to player feedback as, according to the Managing Director, Tom Waters their ambitious decision was mainly fed by the positive response from the players after the first MILLIONS online.
"Running the first MILLIONS Online this year was an exciting time for us, bringing the concept of our live tour online. The feedback we had from our players was overwhelming, so what better way to say thank you than to run it again but this time making the guarantee a whopping $20,000,000," said Waters.
Tom Waters has all the reasons to smile
It's now crystal clear that the site really means to be the best choice for players as this shocking announcement is only one - but certainly the biggest - on the list of their recently introduced innovations.
