GGMasters Overlay Edition is back, 10 million guarantee up for grabs

Article cover

As the name suggests, the GGMasters Overlay Edition 10M GTD promises a lavish overlay that surpassed the million dollar mark last year. It ranks fourth on the list of the biggest overlays in the history of tournament poker. The winner of last year's edition was German pro Phillip Gruissem for a huge cash prize of $806,305.

What's unique about the GGMasters Overlay Edition is that it's played in a freezeout format, which means each player only has a single $150 charge. "The GGMasters Overlay Edition is a cornerstone of GGPoker's commitment to giving back to our community," said Sarne Lightman, CEO of GGPoker. "We're already giving away over $15 million through the Lunar New Year Giveaways event and the $10 million guaranteed GGMasters Overlay Edition will add even more sweetness to that - February is going to be amazing at GGPoker!"

The ambassador Daniel Negreanu, who predicted a massive overlay last year, also had positive comments. "There is no other tournament like the GGMasters Overlay Edition - a freezeout with a reasonable buy-in, a huge guarantee and the chance to get great value!" he said.

We'll find out soon enough if this year's Overlay will break records as well. The first opening flight of nine starts on Saturday, February 18. The tournament will then culminate with the grand final on Monday, February 26. The fact that the tournament is truly accessible to everyone is confirmed by the number of qualifiers, which start at a buy-in of just 25 cents.
