Spartan Poker has always been a trendsetter in terms of offering big guarantee tournaments to the poker community, and they have lined up an extravagant Sunday offering this week in the Millionaire United ₹1 Crore GTD. Adding to the already elite list of the Millionaire variants like The Millionaire Legends, The Millionaire X5, and the Millionaire Lite, this latest inclusion is sure to knock you off your rockers!
Since the start of 2020, the tournament-centric brand site has been aggressively expanding its tournament offering. After an explosive January that saw the extremely popular India Online Poker Championship (IOPC) return for another unbeaten run, the company went on to launch the ‘Double Features’ promotion in February, with the ‘Triple Features’ joining the bandwagon a few weeks later in March.
The most recent offering from Spartan Poker came in just a few days ago when the site brought on its client the new DLY Prime Tournaments, offering over ₹2 Crores in prize pool guarantees every week!
Persisting with the trend, Spartan Poker on Wednesday announced an all-new variant of its flagship Millionaire tournament – ‘Millionaire United’! Boasting a mouth-watering ₹1 Crore guaranteed, the tournament will be a one-day affair, much like the SSS#61 Millionaire ₹1 Crore GTD, and will take place this coming Sunday, March 29.
Talking about the upcoming tournament, co-founder of Spartan Poker, Sameer Rattonsey, said, “With the present situation, we just wanted to offer even more value for the players at home. Hence the very affordable buy-in for this particular Millionaire United and keeping it to just one day. The name Millionaire United was to remind everyone to show solidarity and help whoever they can in the current circumstances.”
“From the time we launched our flagship Millionaire in September 2016, the idea was always to scale it up whether it was by way of increasing the GTD amount or the number of editions we’d do in a month. Clearly the poker industry has grown tremendously in the past 2 years especially and the Millionaire is tracking exactly the way we originally envisioned it. I hope to see even bigger GTDs and more Millionaires in the near future.”
Over the past year, Spartan Poker has been increasing the frequency of its most popular ‘Millionaire’ tourneys. What started out as a once-in-a-month affair has since turned into an almost weekly bonanza. Not only that, but the site has also successfully pulled out a more affordable ‘The Millionaire Lite,’ featuring a buy-in of ₹1,650, bringing the flagship within reach of the low and mid-stakes players.
Coming back to the upcoming Millionaire United, even though it’s a one-day tourney, it will still be a multi-flight extravaganza. Sporting a buy-in of ₹7,700, Day 1A will kick off at 12 PM on Sunday with Day 1B commencing at 4 PM. Day 2 will begin at 9 PM later in the day.
Satellites for the Millionaire United are already underway at Spartan Poker since March 24 and will continue till 4 PM on March 29.
