Celebrate India’s Diamond Jubilee Independence Day With Spartan Poker’s Freedom Celebration Series (August 4-15)

On August 15, 2022, India will celebrate 75 years of Independence! To celebrate this landmark occasion, Spartan Poker has unveiled its first-ever Freedom Celebration Series (FCS). With the Indian athletes representing the country in the 2022 Commonwealth Games in Birmingham, the FCS will give Spartan Poker users a great way to root for our Indian heroes while getting the chance to shine themselves (and win significant cash prizes)!

The celebrations never stop at Spartan Poker, which hosted the Winter Celebration Series (December 4 to January 1) and Summer Celebration Series (April 29 to May 8) earlier this year. India’s leading online poker site is back with this third series under the celebration branded – Freedom Celebrations Series – which will be making its inaugural run from August 4 to 15. Like all new Spartan Poker MTT festivals, the FCS comes loaded with value, guaranteeing over ₹11 Crores in cash prizes across 100 tournaments.

To make the FCS all-inclusive, the FCS tournaments (like the SCS) are divided into three categories – High, Mid, and Low, with the buy-ins starting from as little as ₹110 to ₹27,500. The daily schedule comprises four mid-stakes tournaments and three low and high-stakes tournaments. Overall, MTT players will get to enjoy ten exciting tournaments daily at the FCS.

That`s not all, as the FCS will host three Main Events:

• ₹1.50 Crores GTD FCS Main Event – High (August 11 to 14)
• ₹20 Lakhs GTD FCS Main Event – Mid (August 7)
• ₹10 Lakhs GTD FCS Main Event – Low (August 12 to 14)

The ₹1.25 Crores GTD Mega Celebration – High is the only other eight-figure guarantee tourney, besides the FCS Main Event – High, on the schedule and will take place from August 4 to 7.

Spartan Poker will be closing out the FCS on August 15 with a special ₹2.50 Lakhs GTD Freeroll open to all FCS participants in honor of India’s Diamond Jubilee Independence Day! Anyone who has played at least one FCS tournament is eligible for the freeroll.

Much like the FCS tournaments are divided across three stakes, the FCS will have three leaderboard races running, cumulatively guaranteeing ₹20 Lakhs in leaderboard prizes.

While the FCS caters to players of all stakes, those on a budget can still join the festivities on a shoe-string budget by winning tickets and packages through Mega Satellites and Satellites for as little as ₹22!

Mega Satellites

Spartan Poker has mapped out a fantastic set of Mega Satellites for the upcoming series, following the formula of “One Ticket, Multiple Tournaments.” Mega Satellites take off on July 26, offering tickets across two categories – Celebration and Marquee.

Celebration: Win 11 tickets worth ₹79,000 to the FCS daily features, i.e., the Celebration tournaments featuring a combined prize pool guarantee of ₹2.90 Crores.

Celebration Package Details

Marquee: The Marquee Package offers six tickets worth ₹66,000 to FCS tournaments with a cumulative prize pool guarantee of ₹3.70 Crores.

Marquee Package Details

Note: Winners of Mega Satellites (Low and Mid) will get tickets to FCS tournaments on that particular day. For Example: If you win a Mega Satellite [Low] on August 3, you will win tickets to low-stake FCS tournaments for August 3.

If you win a Mega Satellite to a Multi-flight tournament and if there are two flights of that particular tournament on that day, then in such a scenario, you will get a ticket to only one flight of that particular multi-flight tournament.

Satellites

For players on a budget, keep an eye out for the numerous satellites running round the clock from August 1 to 14. There are over 1,300 FCS tickets up for grabs, and buy-ins start at just ₹33!
