The Wynn Millions is returning to Las Vegas this spring and the prestigious festival will feature two dozen events, including a $3,500 buy-in Wynn Millions Championship with a $3 million guarantee.
That's not the only big guarantee of the Wynn Millions festival, which starts on Feb. 20 and runs through March 19, as there will be more than $8 million in guaranteed prize pools across the 28 days of action, including a two-day $600 No Limit Hold’em event with a $200,000 guarantee and a $1.5 million guaranteed Mystery Bounty event.
$8 Million Up for Grabs
Events in the Wynn Poker Room always attract plenty of big names and big action and this year's festival is shaping to be no different.
Things will kick off with the one-day $500 No Limit Hold’em on Feb. 20 as players compete for a slice of the $50,000 guaranteed prize pool. After that, the $200,000 guaranteed No Limit Hold’em event will get underway before a $600 H.O.R.S.E tournament with a $30,000 guarantee.
The $1.5 million guaranteed Mystery Bounty tournament is sure to draw a big field as players look to become the latest big bounty winner. The event will feature three starting flights and will play down to a winner on Feb. 26. PokerNews will be in attendance on Day 2 to once again offering updates on the exciting bounty draws!
Other highlights of the series include a two-day $1,100 Seniors event with a $100,000 guarantee, a $400 Ladies event with a $20,000 guarantee and several mixed game offerings, including the $50,000 guaranteed $1,100 Limit Omaha 8/B event and the $10,500 PLO High Roller.
The biggest draw of the festival, the Wynn Millions Championship, will feature three starting flights as players look to run up their starting stack of 40,000. The tournament is sure to be a long one as it is scheduled to play for six days and will reach a winner as the final table plays out on March 11.
The championship event has played as a $10,000 buy-in since the Wynn Millions' inception in 2021 but that changes this year with the $3,500 offering. PokerNews will once again be on-site to offer live updates and content.
The series will also feature three High Roller events as part of the PokerGO Tour (PGT), including two $10,500 No-Limit Hold'em events and a $10,500 Pot-Limit Omaha event.
