If you’re an online poker player residing in the United States, October is the one month of the year you just can’t miss. The $5 Million GTD Promotion is now in full swing and it may just be the spark that brings back the fire of big prize pool online poker to America.
Every Sunday at 3 pm ET in October (4th, 11th, 18th and 25th), Americas Cardroom will be hosting a $1,000,000 GTD Million Dollar Sundays tournament. Each of these no-limit Texas Hold’em tournaments has a $500+$40 buy-in with $200,000 GTD for first place.
The next one happening this weekend will be the fifth Million Dollar Sundays tournament Americas Cardroom hosted this year. To have one in four consecutive weeks in October is unheard of for any US facing site.
The size and scope of this promotion is starting to attract some of the biggest names in poker from the US and around the globe. Joshua Beckley, a 2015 WSOP Main Event ‘November Nine’ finalist, has committed to playing (and streaming live via Twitch.tv) in the four upcoming tournaments. Beckley finished in 150th place in the first of five Million Dollar Sundays tournaments on September 13th.
If the $500+$40 buy-in is a bit steep for your bankroll, we’ve got you covered. We’ve posted more, lower buy-in satellites to October 4th’s Million Dollar Sunday than ever before and we also have 3 massive Mega Satellites slated for the weekend that will guarantee 250 seats.
| Date | Buy-in | Time (ET) | Name |
| Friday, Oct 2nd | $60+$6 | 7:30pm | 50 Seat GTD Mega Satellite |
| Saturday, Oct 3rd | $60+$6 | 7:30pm | 100 Seat GTD Mega Satellite |
| Sunday, Oct 4th | $80+$8 | 11:30am | 100 Seat GTD Mega Satellite |
You can buy-in directly to the Mega satellites or win you seat via super satellites and freerolls we have running daily. For a complete schedule, click here.
If you don’t have the time to invest into qualifying via satellite, you have other options. We introduced our popular Jackpot Poker game this year and these 3-person hyper-turbo Sit & Go’s are a hit. We’ve now started the ‘Million or Bust’ Jackpot Poker game and for as little as a $1 buy-in, all three competitors can win their Million Dollar Sunday seat.
The $5 Million GTD Promo could have a big impact on the larger picture of online poker for U.S. players. Never before has a promotion brought together so many U.S. players for such a long period of time under one roof. Our overall cash games, Sit & Go’s, and daily tournament turnout is on the rise and it’s bound to just keep getting bigger and bigger as the month of October continues on.
This is the next step to making Million Dollar Sundays a permanent fixture on our tournament schedule. Don’t miss your opportunity to be a part of bringing big prize pool tournament action back to America.
