OVER $110 MILLION

The GG Online Championship, running exclusively on GGPoker, has officially surpassed $110,000,000 in prize pools that have been scooped by our elite poker players. And, for those of you who are still trying to take advantage of the amazing guarantees found only at GGPoker, you still have 9 days left to win your share of over $60 Million in guaranteed prize pools. 

This week is another massive week for guarantees with over $50 Million split between 108 online poker tournaments including the Sunday Super MILLION$ with a $6,000,000 guarantee and the $8,000,000 GGOC Main Event. Step satellites are already running for both of these events so you definitely have no reason to miss out on these massive online guarantees, not to mention the prestige that comes with taking down one of these events. 

While you are playing in your choice of events this week, waiting for the big one on Sunday, don’t forget to check out all of the GG Online Championship action at  GGPoker.TV, the best spot to stream some of the biggest online poker games.

If the guarantees are not enough action, check out the leaderboard. Over the past week there has been a ton of movement over the High, Medium and Low leaderboards.

The Low leaderboard saw the runner up from week 1, ‘BeardOilGuy’ jump over the competition to claim the top spot by a mere 31 points over second place ‘goosebumps4’, who maintained his position from the previous week. Week 1’s leader, ‘Kong Fuzi’ and last week’s leader, ‘Big Bluff’, fell to 11th and 7th respectively and are now over 200 points back. 

The Medium leaderboard has seen ‘Joao Simoa’ continue to lead the pack. While his lead has diminished, he is still over 200 points ahead of second place and 350 over third.

The High and Super High Leadboard again had a lot of movement. The week 1 leader, ‘Wei Zhao’ has continued to drop and now finds himself down to 83rd while ‘rivfun4me’, who dropped to 11th after last week, maintained his position. The steadiest of the top 3 from week 1, ‘danludan’, continued to keep his position in the top 3 and closed the gap at the top of the leaderboard. Last week’s leader, ‘ Chris Rudolph’, lost his top position and dropped to second behind the current leader ‘Amichai Barer’. With the top 3 on this leaderboard separated by less than 25 points there is sure to be a lot of excitement and movement over the last 9 days of the online poker series.
