888poker's Massive $2 Million Super XL Series
By RTR Dennis
What do you call a poker tournament series that offers a guaranteed $2 million over nine days? How about the “Super Extra Large Series” because that’s exactly what 888poker’s upcoming event is!
From November 17th to the 25th, players will have a chance to compete in lots of huge tournaments in the $2 million Super XL Series. Each of the days will have a set amount of guaranteed money spread out over a certain number of tourneys. For example, Nov. 17th offers $120,000 and features the following events:
- $100,000 Super XL Opening Event – At 19:35 GMT, $109 buy-in
- $5,000 Super XL Knockout – At 20:00 GMT, $50 + $50 + $9 buy-in
- $15,000 Super XL Hurricane – At 20:45 GMT, $109 buy-in
This is just a small sample of what to expect in the Super XL Series because there are even bigger and better tournaments available. Both November 18th and the 25th are going to be huge days since a collective $1.5 million will be paid out.
