GGPoker’s weekly high roller online poker event series is not called Super MILLION$ without reason. The buy-in is super – at $10,300 it costs the same as entering the annual WSOP Main Event – the players are super and the rankings are now super. Yes, the bragging rights just got even bigger as GGPoker have announced that they will be rewarding the best players across a brand-new leaderboard.
Recent Super MILLION$ Winners
The recent Super MILLION$ winners have hit the big time. For just $10,300 and two days of action at the online felt, a Brazilian trio of stars got close to but missed out on a really big one as the top prize of $1.5 million was claimed last week. This week saw another huge prizepool as Bryn Kenney was the biggest name at the final table. He ultimately finished second to miss out on what would have been his first Super MILLION$ title , but it shows the pulling power that the Super MILLION$ really has.
That will only increase as the all-new SuperRanking leaderboard that has been introduced is enjoyed for many weeks and months to come. There are huge benefits to players who climb the list, with GGPoker’s new and exciting partnership with Triton Poker sure to lead to the Super MILLION$ world growing to live tours in the near future.
The improvements that are being made to Super MILLION$ – which is now into its third year of events – are sure to attract more amateurs to the ever-growing roster of combatants who turn up each week and battle it out for bragging rights in the online poker high roller community.
How Does the SuperRanking Leaderboard Work?
The SuperRanking leaderboard ranks GGPoker Super MILLION$ players “purely on their profit-and-loss results in all online and live Super MILLION$ events” and will show the top 20 players at any one time. This is not an exhaustive list, with different players making the final table each week and while it’s a good start, we’d like to see this list expanded over the coming weeks. GGPoker have proven themselves adept at listening to player feedback in recent weeks as evidenced by this recent investigation into online poker security on CardPlayer Lifestyle this week.
Whichever player ends 2023 atop the summit will be crowned the year’s ‘SuperPro’ and can look forward to being the envy of all their peers, especially those who play the Super MILLION$ events. But what else do they win? Well, a lot.
The winning ‘SuperPro’ will be awarded ‘Super Platinum’ level in GGPoker’s Fish Buffet loyalty program and receive the equivalent of 100% cashback at GGPoker – this applies to all online and offline Super MILLION$ events too, so may well include tour events if things go to plan and the tour ramps up. They’ll also get a custom GGPoker player avatar and further benefits, which according to the site will be “revealed over the course of 2023”.
Does Anyone Else Win Other Than the SuperPro?
Whichever players finish in 2nd and 3rd place on the 2023 SuperRanking leaderboard will receive the same benefits other than the utterly unique SuperPro avatar, meaning it’s a very good deal for anyone who makes the podium places.
To be eligible, players just need to take part in at least five Super MILLION$ events across 2023 (that’s a total of $50,000 in buy-ins) and Bertrand ‘ElkY’ Grospellier personally can’t wait.
“This new edition of Super MILLION$ will really be exceptional, including a new SuperRanking format which will be based on pure win-loss, for the first time in poker history,” said the French poker hero and GGPoker Ambassador. “The winners will be recognized as the best poker players of our era, and crowned GGPoker’s first SuperPros. We’re also expanding LIVE and bringing the Super MILLION$ experience worldwide to everyone; I can’t wait to see some new faces in the world’s greatest high-roller games!”
There will be new ways to qualify for the Super MILLION$, with satellites suiting players of all levels and with any size bankroll, not only the high rollers of the online poker sphere. The first satellite will take place this Sunday, January 29th, ten $10,300 Super MILLION$ tickets guaranteed and a buy-in set at just $10!
With over $300 million given to the winners in Super MILLION$ since its inception in the summer of 2020, the biggest and best high roller series in the world of online poker just got a whole lot bigger.
