CoinPoker doesn’t kick off the Battle of Malta online series until July 12, but players can start qualifying for tournaments today.
The online poker site began offering its satellites for the upcoming $1 million guaranteed CoinMillion event. The qualification pathway operates within the CoinPoker app and concludes at the start of the official series on July 12. In total, the satellites will award at least 1,024 seats to the $215 buy-in tournament.
The satellite system features a four-step structure. Players enter the first tier, Step 4, at no cost. These freerolls run three times daily and award entries into Step 3, which carries buy-ins ranging from $0.10 to $0.50.
Step 2 tournaments cost between $0.55 and $4.40, advancing winners to the final qualifying stage. The Step 1 direct satellites require buy-ins of $5.50 to $44 and run up to nine times a day. On July 12, a specific $25 Step 1 event guarantees 100 seats to the target tournament.
