It’s time for the greatest annual online poker competition on the calendar.
WCOOP 2021 begins this Sunday (22 August), and this year there’s $100 million in guaranteed prizes up for grabs.
You’ll find six events on the schedule on the opening day of the festival – which makes 18 tourneys across three tiers – with a rather epic $8.6M Gtd in combined prizes.
Here’s a break down of the schedule for the first day of WCOOP 2021:
All three tiers of Event #4 will each payout at least $1M. The line-up includes a half price Sunday Million and two high stakes events. If you’re looking for the biggest guarantees, here they are:
#4-L: $55 Sunday Million, $1M gtd
#4-M: $530 NLHE, $1.5M gtd
#4-H: $5,200 High Roller, $1M gtd
Fans of the PKO format will be delighted by the options on the opening day. As far as prize pools go, they stand out as huge events, second only to the ones already mentioned above. The PKO events on offer are:
#3: PKO NLHE
Buy-ins: $22, $215, $2,100
