Some of the biggest names in the world of live and online poker will set their eyes on a feast from February 28 through to March 7, with Super MILLION$ Week happening on Natural8. The series will offer $30 million in guarantees, across 31 High Roller events.

Key Numbers of the Festival

The festival expands on the existing High Roller schedule on the GGPoker Network (GGPN) and boosts the guarantee of several major tournaments such as the $10,300 Super MILLION$ and Bounty Hunters series. Other highly popular events such as the GGMasters High Rollers, $1,050 Friday Main Event and $1,050 High Rollers Main Event will also be part of the main schedule.

It all kicks off on February 28 with six tournaments, which boast a guarantee of at least $1 million on the biggest Super Sunday of the year thus far. The first day of the festival will also include one of the starting days of the $10,300 Main Event.

Huge Main Event with $10 Million Guarantee

The festival is reminiscent of High Rollers Week, which ran on the GGPN in November last year. Back then, the flagship Main Event had a guarantee of $5 million and attracted 581 entries. Belgian Triple Crown champion Davidi Kitai defeated Eelis P?rssinen in heads-up to win the top prize of $726,839.

In this newest edition of the Super MILLION$ $10,300 Main Event, an enormous $10 million guarantee awaits. Players can win their seat from as little as $10 thanks to the step satellite system, which also features steps of $108 and $1,050.

There will be four starting days in total in which players can earn their chance at a huge payday. Day 2 will take place on March 8 and the final table will be streamed a day later.
