WSOP Online: First Winners Crowned at GGPoker; Mystery Bounty Tops 23K Entries So Far

Just a few days into the WSOP Online at GGPoker, three winners have already been awarded and the Mystery Bounty has reached 23,000 entries.

Just a few days into the World Series of Poker Online at GGPoker, three winners have already been awarded. All three are first-time bracelet winners and two of those earned six-figure paydays.

The series features 33 bracelet events running though Sept. 27 at GG for international players. The action then switches to WSOP.com from Sept. 10 – Oct. 18 for players in legalized US markets. Here’s a quick look at the action so far.

Event 1: $500 The Housewarming

This No Limit Hold’em event kicked off the series and the bargain buy-in produced a hefty field. The Housewarming brought in 5,099 entries for a $2.4 million prize pool. Germany’s Stefan Schillhabel (pictured in lead image, courtesy of PokerGO) came out on top for $296,410.

Schillhabel has $9.5 million in live tournament winnings including a seventh-place finish in the $5,000 WSOP Online Main Event in 2020 for $467,825. His poker record includes numerous other major wins and top finishes.

The biggest of those came in 2017 in the Super High Roller Bowl, where he took seventh for $2.4 million.

Following the WSOP Online win, Schillhabel certainly seemed pleased to add his first bracelet.

Looks like focussing on poker again was a good idea.

Event 2: $1,111 Every 1 for War Relief

This charity event sent a portion of the prize pool to Ukraine war relief efforts. The event also produced the second-straight six-figure payout of the series with another German finding the winner’s circle.

Claas Segebrecht came out on top for $102,152 and his debut bracelet. The event attracted 730 entries for an $811,030 prize pool.

Segebrecht has more than $2.7 million in live tournament winnings. In 2019 he came close to winning a bracelet, finishing runner-up in the WSOP Europe Main Event for $779,275.

#3: $2,500 Limit Hold’em Championship

Brazil remains a hotspot for online poker and the game in general, and a Brazilian grabbed a bracelet in this event. Rafael “BruxoR10” Caiaffa found his first bracelet for $64,671.

The event brought in 124 entries for a $294,500 prize pool. After getting into poker in 2006 and playing as a pro, Caiaffa began playing again in April after a two-year layoff. He jumped in a few live and online events over the last few months.

“I don’t take poker as a profession anymore, but it’s a hobby that ends up giving me a financial return,” he told iGaming Brazil recently. “So I play online when I feel like it, sporadically, online and cash games, but what I really like is live.

“My goal is to play the Brazilian circuit like I’ve been doing for the last few years, the BSOP and maybe some other tournament that I have here in Brazil. And eventually the WSOP in Las Vegas, which gives it a bigger spotlight.”

Caiaffa may not have won a bracelet in Vegas, but no doubt adding an online bracelet to his poker resumé was a nice way to get back to the tables.

Looking ahead

As the weekend approaches, even more bracelet action lies ahead. Event 4: $1,050 Bounty Deepstack is set for Thursday. That’s followed by Event 5: $315 Six-Handed Bounty NLHE on Saturday.

Sunday brings Event 6: $800 Monster Stack, which should produce a monstrous field of players.

After numerous starting flights, Monday’s action brings Day 2 of the $10 million Mystery Bounty. Satellites start at just $1 and one lucky bounty winner can score a $1 million bounty grand prize.

As of Thursday, starting flights had attracted 23,163 entries with more set for the weekend. GG officials expected a big increase in entries over the weekend and hoped to meet the guarantee ahead of Day 2.

The Satellite Finals run every Sunday beginning Aug. 21 through Oct. 23. The events feature two €2,000 packages guaranteed every week. A tournament package includes:

€550 Grand Event seat
five nights at the Hilton Malta

‘World Championship’ Events Added to PokerStars WCOOP; Series Guarantees $85 Million

WCOOP is back for a 21st year at PokerStars and runs Sept. 4-28 with 104 events, $85 million guaranteed, and new World Championship events.

One of the biggest and longest-running online poker series returns in September. PokerStars announced on Monday that the World Championship of Online Poker (WCOOP) is back for a 21st year and runs Sept. 4-28.

The series is one of the most anticipated on the tournament calendar and now adds to an already-packed online poker schedule in August and September.

Players will find $85 million in guaranteed prize pools across 104 events. That again includes Low, Medium, and High buy-in levels ranging from $5.50 to $25,000. PokerStars has also added “World Championship” events to this year’s series as well, ramping up the series’ prestige even more.

“WCOOP has long been the pinnacle of online tournament series and with the addition of World Championship events we are looking to elevate the prestige of winning a WCOOP title event further,” PokerStars director of online poker experience Chris Straghalis said in a news release.

“Not only are we offering a wide variety of buy-ins to provide a way for virtually anyone who desires to participate in a WCOOP event, we also offer the most formats and variants in online poker with a choice of mixed games that are unique to PokerStars.”

PokerStars adding more to WCOOP

Players jumping in the WCOOP action will find a wide range of events and tournament styles. Some No Limit Hold’em options include: progressive knockout (PKO), heads-up, and six-max. Other tournament options include HORSE, Badugi, Pot Limit Omaha, eight-game mix, and more.

This year, players will also find 12 World Championship events competitors to become world champions of a specific poker discipline.

That includes a $10,300 World Championship NLHE Main Event with a $6 million guarantee. In total, Stars is offering six Main Events on Sept. 25 with over $14 million guaranteed including two World Championship events in NLHE and PLO. Here’s a look at all the major events just on Sept. 25 alone.

92-L: $109 NLHE Main Event – $2.5 million guaranteed
92-M: $1,050 NLHE Main Event, $4 million guaranteed
92-H: $10,300 World Championship of NLHE – $6 million guaranteed
94-L: $109 PLO Main Event – $250,000 guaranteed
94-M: $1,050 PLO Main Event, $600,000 guaranteed
WCOOP 94-H: $10,300 World Championship of PLO – $1 million guaranteed

Players looking to win a World Championship will also find several other poker variants including: NLHE PKO, HORSE, PLO Hi/Lo, Badugi, Razz, and several others.

Even more planned for WCOOP

Following on from this year’s SCOOP, the WCOOP also sees the first official WCOOP women’s event. That tournament is set for Sept. 25 with a combined guaranteed prize pool of $38,000 across the three buy-in levels.

A World Championship women’s event is also planned for Sept. 18 with a $530 buy-in and $65,000 guarantee.

Stars is once again offering WCOOP leaderboards throughout the series. Players can battle for the Player of the Series title in Low, Medium, High, and Overall leaderboards. The standings come with an extra $100,000 in cash prizes for winners.

All WCOOP winners will receive a trophy, including larger versions for Main Event and leaderboard winners. Also new for 2022, a special trophy is planned for World Championship winners.

Satellites and freerolls a big part of the series

There are plenty of ways players can win their way into WCOOP. Fast Track satellites award tournament seats every day from Aug. 15 – Sept. 25. These include Main Event seats worth $10,300 and players can win a seat starting at just $0.50. The satellites offer a total of $100,000 in added value.

Special WCOOP Spin & Go’s will also award Main Event entries, other tournament tickets, and cash prizes. Those buy-ins start at just $0.50.

Stars is also hosting a Champions Freeroll on Sept. 4 for last year’s WCOOP champions with a chance to win a $10,300 NLHE Main Event seat. The freeroll offers $50,000 in tournament seats up for grabs. Here’s a look at the entire WCOOP schedule.

New and Improved: 888poker Announces Completely Revamped Daily Tournament Schedule

As 888poker celebrates the online poker platform’s 20th anniversary this year, the company announced a completely revamped tournament lineup over the weekend. After input from players the company has completely changed the daily and weekend online tournament schedule.

“We’re improving our tournament schedule and rotation,” the company noted in a news release. “With this update, players will have access to some of the best and most value-for-money events in the online poker world.”

What to expect from 888poker’s new lineup

Beyond just offering some changes in the tournament schedule, 888 has also added some new events to the mix. In all, the site has now added more than $500,000 in additional tournament guarantees per week.

Some of that action includes dozens of new tournaments, many of which are in the progressive knockout (PKO) format. These bounty tournaments have become some of the most popular in online poker.

In a PKO, players are awarded only a portion of the bounty of a player they eliminate. The other portion is placed on the winning player’s head. This increases bounty values throughout the entire tournament, making for some interesting scenarios later in the event.

Reaching all player levels

Along with more PKO events, 888 has also added more turbo events to the schedule. In general, the company hopes the improved schedule reaches a wider number of players.

“We’ve made the new tourney slate to appeal to all players by leveling the playing field,” the company notes. “Our rotation will attract more recreational players and those with more experience.”

Players will find daily PKO tournament buy-in starting at just $1. The site has also added three PKO Sunday majors as well. These PKO events feature buy-ins for every level of player including some nice guarantees. Here’s a look at the Sunday events:

$11 PKO Triple Threat – $15,000 guaranteed
$22 PKO Triple Threat – $20,000 guaranteed
$55 PKO Triple Threat – $40,000 guaranteed

Here’s a look at the updated PKO tournament schedule below. Check out the 888poker client for details on all new tournaments.

GGPoker Offers Details on WSOP Online $10 Million Mystery Bounty; $1 Million Grand Prize

The WSOP Online officially runs Aug. 14 – Sept. 27 at GGPoker and the site released more details on the $10 Million Mystery Bounty this week.

The World Series of Poker Online officially runs Aug. 14 – Sept. 27 at GGPoker, but some starting flights have already begun. The site also released some key details of the $210 Mystery Bounty event this week.

GG is pushing this major event, which has seen Day 1 flights already beginning as well. The tournament comes with a hefty $10 million guarantee. One lucky player will also win a $1 million bounty prize as part of the fun.

What is a mystery bounty tournament?

A mystery bounty is a twist on a traditional bounty tournament. In a regular bounty event, players are awarded a certain amount for each player they eliminate. That amount is usually fixed and added to the player’s winnings immediately.

However in a mystery bounty, a player receives a random “mystery bounty” instead. These can be much higher than traditional bounties and depend on random drawing.

The events have become popular among players both live and online because of this fun element added to the tournament. In the WSOP Online Mystery Bounty, one player will grab the maximum seven-figure score.

How to get in the GGPoker WSOP Mystery Bounty

GG is promising quite a Mystery Bounty tournament with a big $10 million guarantee, quite a payout for a $210 tournament. Players will find numerous starting flights to get in the action.

Those making it to Day 2 on Aug. 22 earn the opportunity to win bounty prizes with each bounty claimed. Each time a participant is eliminated during the second or subsequent days, that player delivering the knockout receives a random mystery bounty.

The prizes are paid directly into each player’s wallet and are separate from any other prizes won.

As for the million-dollar prize, every player eliminating another opponent has the same chance to win. All prizes are randomly determined and have the same likelihood of being awarded to the first player knocking out an opponent on Day 2 as the player winning the event.

The site is also running satellites for players looking to get in the event at a bargain price. Those include $1 Step Satellites, where players can advance to other qualifiers for a single buck. Direct satellites also start at just $8.

Along with the chance to win some major mystery bonuses, the winner also scores a WSOP gold bracelet.

More WSOP Online details

Beyond the $210 Mystery Bounty, poker players will find numerous other events to check out. That includes 33 bracelet events with buy-ins ranging from $100 to $10,000.

The $5,000 World Championship, also known as the WSOP Online Main Event, is the signature tournament on the schedule. This event features a $20 million guarantee with numerous Day 1 stages and Day 2 set for Sept. 26.

Players will also find a packed schedule of side events throughout the series as well as plenty of satellite action. Here’s a look at the bracelet and non-bracelet schedules.

Online Qualifiers Begin at PartyPoker for Festival Bratislava, MILLIONS Online Main Event

PartyPoker has launched online qualifiers for the upcoming The Festival Bratislava as well as the MILLIONS Online Main Event.

Another major series is coming to the European live poker scene. PartyPoker announced The Festival Bratislava is heading to Slovakia from Oct. 10-16 with seats up for grabs by playing online at the site.

Banco Casino hosts the series, which includes a €550 Main Event featuring a €500,000 guarantee. Players will also find numerous side events including deepstack, high roller, Pot Limit Omaha, eight-game mix, and knockout tournaments. PartyPoker players have numerous opportunities to earn their way into the series.

“I have worked in the poker industry since 2004 and throughout the years, PartyPoker has stood out as one of the most respected and trusted operators, with a huge player base,” festival co-founder Martin “Franke” von Zweigbergk said in a news release.

“As a founder of The Festival, I feel excited and humbled by the upcoming collaboration. I am truly looking forward to meeting the qualifiers from PartyPoker at our Bratislava stop in October.”

Along with online qualifying for that series, satellites also get underway beginning Sunday for the upcoming MILLIONS Online Main Event.

Qualifying online at PartyPoker

Party continues working to offer some major poker opportunities for players of all levels and bankrolls. Players can win their place into The Festival for as little as €0.01.

The site is offering €1,500 tournament packages up for grabs. These prizes include:

a €550 Main Event seat
six nights accommodation for two people
€260 in expenses

Players can jump in any of six “One Cent Shots” running daily. Those then feed into a €0.44 feeder, which then push players into an €11 Phase 1.

The Phase 1 events run twice daily with the top 10% of finishers moving on to the €109 Satellite Final. The winner of that event claims the €1,500 package.

Satellite Finals will be held on Sundays, starting on Aug. 14 and running through Oct. 2.

What to expect at The Festival

Those winning a tournament package will find plenty of side action and cash games alongside the Main Event. Roulette, blackjack, and slot tournaments will also be part of the mix as well as a sports betting competition.

Party is also promising plenty of fun away from the casino. There will be events every day of the series including player parties, an underground nightlife tour, wine tasting, and a tour of the River Danube.

Organizers will release the complete tournament schedule in the coming weeks.

MILLIONS Online qualifiers also kick off

In other news, PartyPoker is kicking off MILLIONS Online qualifiers this weekend. Party is now offering players a shot to secure a seat in the $3,200 Main Event. The se series is set for September with a complete schedule to be released soon.

There is no direct buy-in into the phase final and players can only get into them via centrolls, feeders, or the Phased satellite tree.

Numerous players have started with these tiny investments to find major scores. Gareth Smirthwaite and Vitaly Polikarpov both won their way into December’s $5,300 Main Event for $0.01. Smirthwaite progressed to Day 2 anf found a min-cash, all for his single cent investment.

Argentina’s Ramiro Petrone scored the title in December, taking home $859,018. Players now have the opportunity to score their own entry into the next event with a shot at some real poker glory.

“For some players, it was their first-ever trip to Vegas and the WSOP.” the company noted of the promotion. “For others, it was their third or fourth trip even. What they all had in common was their desire to make the most of this opportunity from 888poker.”

One of those players making the trip to Las Vegas has played at 888 since the online poker site launched in 2002. Danny Lavoie (pictured in lead image, courtesy 888poker) hails from Canada and 888 rewarded him for his two decades of play.

Lavoie actually advanced to Day 5 of the tournament, finishing 296th place for $40,900. This was his first major live tournament cash.

“When I got the call from 88poker, I expected a surprise but not that big,” he said after site ambassador Kara Scott told him about the trip to Vegas. “It’s a dream come true to come to Vegas and play the Main Event.”

Another player in the 888 crew scored an even better finish. Brazil has been a hotbed for poker over the last few years and Thiago Pirani represented his country and 888 in the Main Event.

He also scored the highest finish among all the qualifiers. Pirani turned a $22 satellite entry into a huge WSOP run, ultimately making Day 5 and finishing 157th for $62,500. That finish also earned the Brazilian the 888 last-longest honor.

More 888 players run deep

Some other qualifiers and ambassadors also cashed in the Main Event. A few of those included:

Nick Eastwood – $15,000
Alexandre “Cavalito” Mantovani – $46,800
Padraig O’Neill – $46,800

New poker video series launches

Beyond the Main Event promotion, 888 also recently launched a new “Ask a Poker Pro” series. The YouTube video series asks players some questions that might help other players at the tables.

The first episode features 888 ambassadors commenting on a particular subject. The pros offer some insight on: “How do you stay calm after taking a bad beat?”

Ian Simpson, a recent addition to the 888 ambassador team, said players should be aware of their hands and be willing to fold when they feel a player may have sucked out.

“You have to be willing to fold the bad beat,” he says. “Whenever you enter a tournament, the most likely result is that you’re going to bust before the money. It doesn’t matter how good you are, that is the most likely result.”

Fellow ambassador Samantha Abernathy notes that the more hands a player sees, the more bad beats come their way. Experienced players begin to get more accustomed to seeing these hands and adjust.

“I think when you play more volume, you get more used to it,” she says. “You have to understand that this is part of the game.”

Here’s a look at the entire first episode of “Ask a Poker Pro.”

‘Red Spade Pass’ Brazil Formula One Experience Now On the Line at PokerStars, EPT Barcelona

PokerStars is hitting the gas on even more promotional power with Red Spade Passes now on the line for the Brazilian Grand Prix.

As the Formula One season moves into its second half, PokerStars is hitting the gas on even more promotional power with the company’s Oracle Red Bull Racing partnership.

Stars announced the latest way for fans to grab a Red Spade Pass for the Brazil Grand Prix on Wednesday.

The promotion rewards winners with the ultimate fan experience at Brazil’s iconic Interlagos Grand Prix circuit. The opportunity is available exclusively for PokerStars players.

“Our aim is to give our community epic moments that they will never forget,” Stars director of partnerships, public relations, and consumer engagement Rebecca McAdam Willets said in a news release.

“Together, PokerStars and Oracle Red Bull Racing want to bring entertainment to all of our fans and players, and this season we’ve seen some fantastic moments both on and off the track. As our partnership continues to grow, we’re looking forward to bringing even more unique experiences to the PokerStars communities.”

What’s included in a PokerStars Red Spade Pass?

Those lucky enough to score a Red Spade Pass are in for a major racing experience. The trip includes three days at the Brazil Grand Prix as well as:

flights
five night’s accommodation in Sao Paulo
exclusive activities and guest appearances
a personalized message from an Oracle Red Bull Racing driver
PokerStars and Oracle Red Bull Racing merchandise

The winners also receive some nice prizes on the poker and gaming side of the deal as well. That includes a session with a PokerStars Learn coach. They’ll also land some offers and tickets from Stars, PokerStars Casino, and PokerStars Sports. Those prizes include:

$109 Sunday Million buy-in
$250/€250 in sports bets
$250 in casino spins

How to win an Formula One experience

The first Red Spade Pass is awarded at PokerStars European Poker Tour (EPT) Barcelona in the €3,000 Platinum Pass Mystery Bounty. The tour is adding the pass to the prize pool, hidden in one of the bounty envelopes awarded to players.

Bounties begin on Day 2, with the event running through Aug. 19. The poker site and online casino will award additional passes, with new ways to win announced soon.

EPT Barcelona is now underway and runs through Aug. 21. Along with the Red Spade Pass, three coveted $30,000 Platinum Passes will also be rewarded.

To celebrate the season getting underway, the first Red Spades awarded winners with a four-day all-expenses paid trip for two to Nice, France, and Monaco for the Monaco Grand Prix. Winners followed the action from PokerStars’ private luxury waterside location, overlooking the famous track.

The site also launched a season-long program of race weekend rewards encouraging fans and players to “Embrace the Race.” From big-money casino drops to Formula One-themed freerolls, the prizes reward fans for their support of the Oracle Red Bull Racing team.

The Embrace the Race prizes also get a major boost if Oracle Red Bull takes the top spot on the podium. PokerStars announced the multi-year F1 partnership earlier this year. The deal calls for Stars branding on the RB18 car and race suits.

PokerStars hopes to attract more online poker players from F1’s growing audience. The company launched several initiatives to provide players and fans with new and unique ways to enjoy the sport.

Qualifier Daiva Byrne Hopes for Platinum Pass in PokerStars EPT Barcelona Women’s Event

Daiva Byrne is one of eight women playing for a Platinum Pass next week in a special women's event at PokerStars EPT Barcelona.

Better late than never. That’s probably the thinking of several women heading to the European Poker Tour stop at Casino Barcelona next week. These female poker players earned a shot at a PokerStars Platinum Pass in 2020.

The promotion allowed for the women to play in a single-table tournament with the opportunity to win the ultimate prize, a $30,000 travel and tournament package to the PokerStars Players Championship (PPC). Then COVID got in the way.

Two years later, the event is now back on and set for Aug. 15. The original promotion saw poker players nominate inspirational women to play in the event as part of PokerStars’ International Women’s Day celebration.

The online poker operator aims to spotlight inspirational women in the game. Daiva Byrne is one of those heading to Spain to play and is pleased just to receive the honor.

“When I found out, I was so surprised and overwhelmed by the support,” she tells PokerScout. “To be part of the top nine, you needed to have so many votes and the kind validation from the community means so much to me. Knowing that people appreciate what you do encourages me even more to work harder to achieve more equality at the tables and higher female representation in the poker industry as a whole.

“I’m thrilled to be on that list with many amazing women who are all equally deserving and I’m very excited about finally playing together in Barcelona.”

Poker life

Originally from Lithuania and living in Manchester, United Kingdom, Bryne is a poker pro. She’s a regular in live games as well as hitting the virtual tables. She has $225,944 in live tournament winnings and also runs the Fantastic Ladies in Poker (FLIP) online community.

After two years mostly away from live poker, Byrne’s glad to be back and looking forward to the opportunity in Barcelona.

“Now the pandemic has calmed down, I’m back traveling for poker events, most recently to Las Vegas for the World Series of Poker and other trips planned this year to Malta and potentially the far east,” she says.

“Back home I’d generally be enjoying coffee, Netflix, playing online, studying, and interacting with my FLIP community members.”

To celebrate International Women’s Day 2020, PokerStars asked the public to nominate women from around the world who have been inspirational in poker & made an impact on the community.

Now, 2 years later, 8 finalists are headed to EPT Barcelona to play for a Platinum Pass.

Winning a PokerStars Platinum Pass

It’s no secret in the poker world that Platinum Pass has become one of the most sought-after prizes in the game. A $25,000 tournament buy-in as part of a nice vacation in the Bahamas in January has many players clamoring to land one.

In the lead up to the first event in 2019, PokerStars awarded numerous passes through smaller buy-in live tournaments, online events, and social media contests.

That made for an event with an interesting mix of recreational players and pros. Several pass winners scored some cash in the PSPC along with a nice trip to the Caribbean.

The event ultimately brought in 1,039 entries for a $26.5 million prize pool. Spain’s Ramon Colillas, who won a pass to get into the event, took the title for $5.1 million. The Women’s Day promotion for the 2023 event is part of PokerStars’ efforts to get more women in the game.

“PokerStars tasked its community with nominating inspirational women who have had a true impact on the game, its players and at the poker table,” the company noted in a news release. “While poker has historically been perceived as a male-dominated sport, there is a strong contingent of women achieving great successes.”

Taking her shot in Barcelona

Byrne now has her own shot at living a dream and scoring a seat in the next Bahamas PSPC. She recently brushed up on her single-table Sit & Go strategy in hopes to make that happen. She’ll have plenty of supporters back home cheering her on.

“Winning any tournament feels great but to win a Platinum Pass would be extra special,” she says. “Every poker player dreams of battling with the best at higher buy-ins, and this would provide that opportunity. Plus, I’ve been to the Bahamas before for poker. It’s a fabulous place to play and relax, so I’d love to return.

“My family and friends are very proud as well as excited about the event and will be supporting me back home watching the live stream. It’s going to be a fantastic event and I know they are going to enjoy it regardless if I win or not.”

No matter the outcome, Byrne is simply looking forward to playing the event. She’s pleased to see more women in poker given some special treatment.

“I love seeing so many inspirational women in poker,” she says, “and hopefully this event will inspire more women to join the game and play.”

True Geordie Films at EPT Barcelona, Women Play for Platinum; Streaming Schedule

Popular YouTuber and PokerStars ambassador Brian “True Geordie” Davis is heading to the European Poker Tour Barcelona. The poker player, podcast host, and Twitch streamer will host a special edition of True Geordie: The Showdown live from the upcoming tournament stop.

EPT Barcelona is set for Aug. 8-21 with a range of live tournaments and three Platinum Passes on the line. True Geordie’s appearance is the latest addition to the fun.

The Showdown is a home-game style tournament with a £5,300 EPT London Main Event ticket as the top prize.

A few of the players in the mix include Team PokerStars streamers Lex Veldhuis and Ben “Spraggy” Spragg. PokerStars’ commentator and comedian Joe “Stapes” Stapleton will also be part of the action.

Along with that news, PokerStars also recently detailed a special event for several women to compete for a Platinum Pass. The company also finalized the EPT Barcelona streaming schedule.

Plenty of ‘Showdown’ fun ahead at PokerStars

As part of the home game action, Davis and the other players in the table engage in plenty of discussion throughout the event. This isn’t a high roller affair where there is little table banter.

Davis works to make the action fun with plenty of entertaining chit-chat at the table. The tournament will stream on the True Geordie and PokerStars Twitch channels for poker fans around the world. The Stars YouTube channel will also feature the event. Those in the tournament area can also check out the action live.

Here's a look at some of the news from PokerStars including Parker Talbot and the Big 20 Rewind, True Geordie's recent live event, and more. — PokerStars ambassador True Geordie (center) at the poker table..

“I am incredibly proud to take our premier poker talk show The Showdown on the road this August where we will be broadcasting live from Barcelona,” True Geordie said in a news release. “Enabling our fans from around the world to come and see the show in person is something we’ve dreamt of doing and we can’t wait to bring social poker to Spain.”

From Newcastle, England, Davis got his start by releasing videos of his opinions on his hometown Newcastle United Football Club. His channel and platform have since grown to include his True Geordie Podcast and True News reaction videos.

Davos also hosts a weekly football live stream called The Kick Off. His media presence has also expanded to include poker streams on occasion as well.

Special tournament for inspiring female poker players set for Barcelona

Beyond the tournament action and True Geordie stream, Stars is also hosting another special event. Several female poker players from around the world head to Barcelona to play live in a special single-table tournament. These competitors will compete for a Platinum Pass and include:

Daiva Byrne – (Lithuania; now Manchester, United Kingdom)
Giada Shiyan Fang (Malta)
Aurélie Reard – (Paris, France; now Cardiff, Wales)
Christina Read (Georgia)
Katie Stone (New Jersey)
Lexi Sterner (Florida)
Meichelle Culhane (Oklahoma)
Terri Hatcher (Texas)

A Platinum Pass is valued at $30,000 and includes an entry and complete travel package to the $25,000 PokerStars Players Championship (PSPC) poker tournament next year in the Bahamas.

The women won a spot into the Barcelona event as part of Stars’ International Women’s Day activities in 2020. Poker players nominated inspirational women in poker as part of the promotion.

However, the PSPC was delayed because of the COVID pandemic but is now going forward in the Bahamas in 2023. PokerStars will stream the event on Aug. 15 (see more on that below).
