GGMasters on GGpoker: Record Participation and Growing Prize Pools


The GGMasters tournament on GGpoker has established itself as the most popular and fastest-growing event on the GGNetwork.

Since its inception, the tournament has been held 16 times, with 14 of those instances resulting in an overlay, where GGpoker adds money to the prize pool to ensure the guarantee. The average overlay amount is $30,000 per week. The total prize pool distributed across all tournaments is $5,682,918, with an average prize pool per tournament of $355,182.

A total of 37,815 players have participated in the tournament, with an average of 2,363 players per event. The previous tournament set a record with 3,383 participants, but this was still not enough to reach the $500,000 guarantee. The winner of the previous tournament received a prize of $58,805. Despite the high participation, the buy-in for the tournament remains at $150. The next GGMasters tournament, scheduled for today at 20:00, will feature a guaranteed prize pool of $500,000, with satellites available starting at a buy-in of $1.50.

I've spent years at the tables — cash and tournaments — and just as long shaping poker copy behind the scenes: room reviews, bonus fine print, tournament notes. At PokerInsider I write the way I wish more sites would: clear structure, honest trade-offs, no hype. Whether you're new or already grinding, I care about what the offer actually costs you — rake, variance, and the fine print — and I treat responsible play as part of the job, not a footnote.
