GGPoker Unveils $30 Million Battle Of Malta Schedule, New WSOP Guinness World Record

GGPoker and Casino Malta recently announced that the Battle of Malta would be moving online this year. The two companies have now unveiled the full schedule for the popular European festival.

The series runs Nov. 1-22 with an overall guaranteed prize pool of $30 million. Players will find 15 championship events also awarding unique Battle of Malta winner’s rings.

A trip to the Mediterranean may not be in order this year. However, players will find plenty of championship online poker at GG.

A look at the Battle of Malta series at GGPoker 

The live Battle of Malta was postponed this year due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Designed for low- to mid-stakes poker players, the series is one of Europe’s biggest and most-anticipated poker events.

A trip to Malta has become synonymous with fun and the lighter side of poker. That includes some unique names for tournaments during the series.

A look at the championship rings awarded this year to Battle of Malta winners at GGPoker.

Names like Crusader’s Cup, King’s Landing, and Bounty for the Queen reflect the island’s unique culture and history.

“Due to the current situation, Casino Malta was ecstatic to be able to find a solution for this year’s Battle of Malta by partnering with such a prestigious brand as GGPoker,” Casino Malta general manager Slawomir Switalski said.

“With the help of this grand festival, our tiny, beautiful island of Malta will be showcased to a broader audience all around the world and we will be excited to invite everyone to our next live event in October 2021.”

The ring events are headlined by the $550 Main Event with $3 million guaranteed. That event features multiple starting flights beginning Nov. 8. Other highlights include:

  • $5,250 High Roller Championship (Nov. 8) – $2 million guaranteed
  • $215 Siege of Malta (multiple Day 1 flights beginning Nov, 8) – $2 million guaranteed
  • $55 Mini Main Event (multiple Day 1 flights beginning Nov. 15) – $1 million guaranteed

“With over $30 million to play for, this year’s Battle of Malta will be just as attractive to poker players as previous year’s live festivals,” said John Scanlon, GGPoker director of live events and sponsorships.

“We hope that everyone who planned to play poker in Malta this year will be able to take part, and can’t wait to see who will be crowned this year’s Main Event champion.”

GGPoker lands Guinness online poker record

In other GGPoker news, the site recently announced its inclusion in Guinness World Records. The site’s World Series of Poker Online $5,000 Main Event earned the record for “largest prize pool for an online poker tournament.”

That event produced a prize pool of $27,559,500 on Sept. 6, 2020. Guinness official adjudicator Michael Empric informed GGPoker ambassador Daniel Negreanu when the record was verified.

 

The event lasted 150 hours, 9 minutes, 13 seconds from the first starting flight to the last hand. Bulgaria’s Stoyan Madanzhiev topped the 5,802-player field to earn the $3.9 million and his first WSOP bracelet.

This became the largest individual prize ever awarded in an online poker tournament. A total of 728 finishers shared a record $27.6 million prize pool. 

“This Guinness World Records title was on our radar from the very beginning,” said Steve Preiss, GGPoker head of poker operations. “Players and fans of poker expect nothing less than record-breaking prizes when it comes to the World Series of Poker, and GGPoker delivered.”

Players vying for a bracelet internationally certainly helped the series number. That has now broken records and adds to the series’ cachet.

“Breaking a Guinness World Records title shows what happens when you combine GGPoker’s amazing platform with the World Series of Poker brand,” WSOP executive director Ty Stewart said. “This will be a tough record to beat.”
