GGPoker, the World’s Biggest Poker Room, has launched a series of online satellite tournaments for the upcoming WSOP Circuit Montreal live poker festival, which runs Monday, November 3 through Tuesday, November 18 at Playground.

This will be the third time this year that a World Series of Poker® event will be hosted at the award-winning Kahnawake poker room. At least $6 million in prizes will be awarded during the upcoming event – up from the $5 million guaranteed for the August circuit stop – along with 18 prestigious WSOP gold rings for event winners.

Online qualifiers for WSOP Circuit Montreal are now live on GGPoker and open to players based across Canada.

The WSOP-C Montreal Main Event headlines the stop:

• Buy-In: $2,500
• Guaranteed Prizes: $2.5M
• Day 1 Flights: Day 1A on November 13, Day 1B on November 14 and Day 1C on November 15

Players who win $2,500 WSOP-C Montreal Main Event packages will also claim exclusive GGPoker-branded merchandise, and, with multiple freeroll tournaments scheduled, players can even win their way to Playground for free.

During the most recent WSOP-C Montreal Main Event, held in August, GGPoker player Jacob Hobday qualified via a $75 satellite tournament and claimed the winner’s prize of $620K and a WSOP Circuit gold ring, with other GGPoker qualifiers finishing in 2nd and 4th place.

“We’re thrilled to be able to send a full contingent of GGPoker players to Playground for the upcoming WSOP-C Montreal Main Event,” said Sarne Lightman, Managing Director of GGPoker. “Our Canadian players love to play WSOP events in their own backyard, and GGPoker can’t wait to see our qualifiers take down some of the biggest prizes on offer!”

The WSOP+ application will be integrated once again into the WSOP Circuit Montreal experience, making event registration, player tracking, and content sharing easier than ever.
