$10,300 GGSF Super Tuesday Begins at 8:05 p.m. CEST

Jaxon

The $150 million guaranteed GG Spring Festival (GGSF) continues to rocks on with five events (15 tournaments broken out between Low, Medium, and High) on Tuesday, April 6.

This, of course, includes today's $1 million guaranteed GGSF H-15 $10,300 Super Tuesday starting at 8:05 p.m. CEST (2:05 p.m. EDT).

The event is a deep-stacked one-day affair with players starting off with 100,000 in chips, which is good for 200 big blinds. Blinds increase every 15 minutes until the final table is reached after which blinds will increase every 15 hands. The final table blinds will also be pushed back so that the average stack is at least 40 big blinds if the average is less than that before the start.

As is the case in most tournaments at GGPoker, the Super Tuesday will be eight-max until the final table which initially will seat nine players.

Players will have plenty of opportunities to build a huge stack with unlimited re-entries allowed until the 280-minute late registration window closes.

About two hours prior to the start, some of the early entrants included the GGPoker ambassadors Felipe Ramos and Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier. Also registered early were Rainer Kempe, Wiktor Malinowski, Rui Ferreira, Darren Elias, Aleksejs Ponakovs, Jans Arends, Enrico Camosci, David Peters, and Niklas Astedt.
