Deep Structure & Big Guarantee!
As we already mentioned, the GGSF L-86 $5 Forty Stack provides amazing value as for just $5 you will be playing for at least a share of the $20,000 guaranteed prize pool.
What we didn't mention is that this event boasts a deep structure with players starting with a monster stack of 40,000 in chips and blinds increasing every 10 minutes until the final table is reached.
The final table is guaranteed to provide deep-stacked play as well as GGPoker will roll back the blinds to assure that the average stack is at least 40 big blinds and blinds will increase based on a certain amount of hands as opposed to based on time like the rest of the event.
Players losing their chips early will have a chance to get right back into the action with unlimited re-entries allowed during the three-hour, late-registration window.
Satellites will appear in the lobby close to kickoff time to allow players to get in for even cheaper than the already reasonable $5 buy-in.
