WPT adds new online series – biggest partypoker festival yet

The WPT and partypoker continue building on the two companies’ growing partnership. With the WPT Online Series currently underway, they’re again teaming up for the biggest partypoker online series ever.

The WPT World Online Championships will run July 1 to Aug. 9, including 15 championship events. The series is highlighted by the $10,300 buy-in Season XVIII WPT World Championship Online, which runs Aug. 1-8.

Partypoker promises some special prizes for the overall series winner. That includes a $15,000 seat into the Season XVIII WPT Tournament of Champions presented by Baccarat Crystal.

“With the live poker schedule likely to be empty over the traditionally hectic summer months, we have been working on plans for a huge online festival to provide an alternative for players that would normally migrate to Vegas,” partypoker managing director Tom Waters said.

“I’m delighted that we have been able to partner with WPT to revive the WPT World Championships and bring the series online for the first time.”

A full schedule for the WPT World Online Championships hasn’t been released yet. It will be posted in this column when it’s available.

Defection Party promises $2 million in prizes throughout May

Partypoker is giving back to players through June 4 with more than $2 million up for grabs. In the new Defection Party promotion, players can win daily prizes no matter a player’s game of choice or skill level.

By simply logging in every day, players can reveal a new prize. These daily rewards can include freeroll tickets to a $500 daily Hyper Turbo tournament running through the day. Other prizes could include free bonuses credited to a player’s account.

Completing daily challenges also allows players to receive a ticket to a daily $5,000 Hyper Turbo freeroll. These also run every day during the promotion.

Partypoker is also offering another free cash opportunity. Players can boost earnings at the tables by taking advantage of a 20% extra cashback offer through June 4.

Players can opt in  and start earning boosted cashback. The cash will land directly in players’ accounts within 24 hours of the promotional period closing. 

The popular Cash Game Leaderboards also offer daily rewards and the promotion has been extended through May. Three types of leaderboards offer players more than $1.3 million in cash and include:

  • Daily Spin Leaderboards
  • Daily SNG Leaderboards
  • Weekly Cash Leaderboards

“We believe in giving back to players,” partypoker marketing director Vadim Soloveychik said. “Corporate greed kills poker, and we want to be the force for good in the game we all love. We give back more than a third of our poker revenue back to players through our cashback program and promotions. This is what we stand for and this is what the Defection Party promotion is all about.”

PokerStars gives big boost to SCOOP guarantees

With big online poker numbers continuing, PokerStars recently boosted its SCOOP guarantees by an additional $10 million. That moved the guaranteed prize pool to $95 million.

That includes a nice boost for low rollers. The Main Event Low guarantee has increased by $500,000, taking it to $3.5 million. The Medium and High Main Events guarantee $5 million each.

The series runs through May 19 with plenty of events for players of every buy-in. That includes more than 80 events among the three buy-in levels.

 

Along with a full slate of tournaments, PokerStars offers some other opportunities during the series. Some of those promotions include: 

  • $5,000 Second Chance Freerolls – These run daily and are given to any player who busts a SCOOP tournament for the first time that day.
  • Special SCOOP Spin & Go’s – These offer Main Event tickets worth $10,300 from as little as $4.
  • Sunday Storm Anniversary Promotion – The first 50,000 players who bust in the Sunday Storm anniversary receive a SCOOP Freeroll ticket.  Tickets to the Medium Main Event will be up for grabs.
  • Player of the Series Leaderboard – Player leaderboards have been altered a bit this year. For the first half, there will be a leaderboard based on player participation and success with winners receiving SCOOP tickets. In the second half, cash prizes will be up for grabs. The overall Player of the Series earns a $20,000 cash prize and SCOOP Trophy.

SCOOP should once again offer some great action. Here’s a look at the complete schedule:

Wheel your way to some cash in new PokerStars cycling game

Players can now bring a bit of the Tour de France to their own poker game as part of the PokerStars Grand Tour. The series brings the worlds of poker and cycling together in a unique new format.

Events feature rich graphics and buy-ins from as little as $1. Players can sprint along the race track eliminating opponents in dynamic tournaments that combine progressive knockout, sit and go, and shootout formats.

Players can win more than $100,000 in prizes and bounties in a race toward the Grand Tour finish line.

 

PokerStars Grand Tour is now available on the .COM platform and will launch on real money soon. The game is expected to launch on .EU and .UK soon. Here are some features and how to play:

  • Buy-ins range from $1 to $60. The higher the buy-in, the closer to the finish line players start.
  • Players at the same buy-in level compete in “sprints.” These are four-player progressive knockout sit and go tournaments that last about five minutes.
  • As players knock each other out, their own bounty values increase. They then move to the next sprint, where they will be matched with players of similar bounty values.
  • When someone is eliminated, his value is split two ways. A percentage is added to the winner’s value and a percentage is awarded as cash directly into his account.
  • This cash prize can be multiplied, meaning players could win more than $100,000 at higher stakes.
  • Eliminated players keep any winnings from knockouts.
  • When a player wins a sprint, they can jump right into the next one or save it for later. Every completed sprint gets players closer to the finish line, where they can be crowned a Grand Tour champion.

Slay the Dragon or Mini-Dragon in May

The Dragon and Mini Dragon series return to 888poker in May. These events feature Day 1 starting flights playing out all week with Day 2 on Saturday.

The series runs weekly with two Main Events. The $55 Dragon features $50,000 guaranteed and the $12 Mini Dragon comes with $30,000 guaranteed.

Galaxy of Freeroll opportunities remain

Everyone enjoys free money and 888poker is giving players plenty of opportunities. The site’s Galaxy of Freerolls promotion runs through June 7 and features more than $500,000 in guaranteed giveaways.

888 offers two daily $2,000 Venus Freerolls Monday through Saturday. On Sunday, a $10,000 Neptune Freeroll will be run with one happy astronaut/champion.

The final freeroll on June 7, aka the Super-Saturn Freeroll, will feature a $100,000 prize pool. Additional surprises, rewards, bonuses, and exclusive freerolls will also be on tap during the Galaxy of Freerolls.

Those looking to earn tickets in the $2,000 Venus need to complete “Space Missions.” Some of those challenges include:

  • The Tournament Voyager – Simply play tournaments with buy-ins of $3 and earn a pair of tickets.
  • Ace-King Apollo Landing – Win a hand holding Ace-King in a cash game and earn two tickets.
  • Casino and Sports Atlantis Orbiter – Place bets totalling $5 or more on any casino game or sports bet and claim but two tickets.

Those hoping to land in a $10,000 Neptune need to complete two or more Space Missions in one week. Players can complete one Space Mission per day and will need at least one more during the week.

How do you play in the $100,000 Super-Saturn Freeroll on June 7? Simply become an 888 astronaut by completing 14 or more Space Missions.

Players can also enjoy a “Daily Spin” to win a ticket to a $1,000 Space BLAST Freeroll.

Unibet

Online Series 8 shifts live events online

The Unibet Online Series 8 (UOS8) has reached the halfway mark and continues through May 24 with an overall €1 million guarantee. Because Unibet had to cancel its 2020 live tournaments, live package winners have been able to play the events online as well.

The final for the “Unibet UK Tour” was held online on Sunday and Monday, producing a prize pool of €78,020. Two other upcoming events that replace live tournaments include: 

  • €3,000 Main Event – €30,000 guaranteed (May 15)
  • €1,100 High Roller – €100,000 guaranteed (May 24)

Qualifiers for these events are running on a daily basis. Unibet also runs daily super-qualifiers for all events above a €25 buy-in.

Along with plenty of tournaments during UOS8, players can battle for a spot among several leaderboards. There will be an extra €30,000 up for grabs for the best overall performances over the series. Here’s a look at the complete remaining schedule:
