Sundays are sacred for online tournament poker players — a holy day, but one entirely devoid of rest. It's the one day out of the week that tournaments take centerstage and, as such, most of the must-play events in any given series tend to fall on a Sunday. Whether you're playing on GGPoker, ACR Poker, PokerStars, or any of the other major sites, Sunday is the day for online tournaments.
On April 6, a perfect storm of Sunday action will touch down as the three sites listed above each feature a slate of exciting tournaments with big guarantees.
Supersized Sunday on ACR Poker
On ACR Poker, April 6 brings Supersized Sunday to the site – offering players a poker-packed, one-day-only slate of 26 tournaments with boosted guarantees that add up to nearly $4M in additional prizes. With buy-ins ranging from $11 to $1,050 and a variety of formats including No-Limit Hold'em, Pot-Limit Omaha, and Progressive Knockouts, Supersized Sunday has an event for players of all bankroll sizes and tournament disciplines.
Amongst the events with boosted guarantees are the $750,000 GTD Supersized Sunday High Roller, the $400,000 GTD Supersized Sunday Moneymaker, and the $250,000 GTD Supersized Sunday Special — providing players with multiple shots at a big score.
“If you’ve been waiting for the perfect day to play, Supersized Sunday is your chance,” said ACR Pro Chris Moneymaker. “Packed with bigger guarantees, action at every level, and lots of tournaments to choose from, there’s no better time to jump in. Plus, it’s a great way to sharpen your game for the Dual Venom tourneys coming up on Sunday, April 13th.”
As Moneymaker mentioned, there's more action in store this month on ACR Poker as the Dual Venom tournaments kick off on April 13 with $12M in total guarantees.
PokerStars Sunday Million 19th anniversary
Meanwhile, on PokerStars, the iconic Sunday Million tournament celebrates its 19th anniversary on April 6. For the better part of two decades, the Sunday Million has been one of online poker's flagship tournaments and the anniversary edition of the event all but guarantees a massive field.
With a $6M guaranteed prize pool and a $215 buy-in, the Sunday Million offers players a shot at life-changing money at a relatively inexpensive entry cost and allows for up to 5 re-entries per player during the 24-hour registration period (registration closes at 1:20 pm ET on April 7).
Plus, with a number of satellites running and other ways to win your seat, it's never been easier to get in on the Sunday Million action.
While the tournament kicks off this Sunday, there's still time to punch your ticket to one of the most exciting online tournaments of the year via the remaining satellite schedule.
On April 4, two satellite events will run — with 50 seats guaranteed in the $11 Mega Satellite and 100 seats guaranteed in the $22 Mega Satellite. The following day, April 5, seven satellite events are on the schedule with a total of 425 seats up for grabs. On April 6, there are another seven satellites that guarantee 1,700 total seats — giving players a last-minute chance to sneak into the Sunday Million 19th Anniversary event.
If you're unable to get in on the fun, you can still watch along as the action streams live on the PokerStars Twitch and YouTube channels, with commentary from the legendary duo of James Hartigan and Joe Stapleton.
GGPoker Mediterranean Poker Party satellites
On GGPoker, players can take a shot at booking their trip to the Mediterranean Poker Party (MPP) at the Merit Royal Diamond in Northern Cyprus. With 30 $12,500 packages up for grabs, it's the perfect opportunity to score a seat to the MPP and buy-ins for the online qualifiers start as low $1.20.
Each package includes buy-ins for the MPP Main Event, Luxon Pay Grand Final, and PokerOK Mystery Bounty, along with 11 nights of all-inclusive accommodation and round-trip airport transfers.
In 2024, over 170 players made their way to the MPP thanks to winning one of these packages, including MPP Main Event winner Azamat Lamkov.
