Global Poker: Summer Series III

Global Poker Summer Series III

Get in the game and win some swag from June 20^th to July 3^rd. The legendary Global Poker Summer Series tournament is back in town for the third time. Join the two weeks of poker madness and gear up in time for the 4^th of July celebrations.

As always, there are both Gold Coin and Sweeps Coin games, with a grand total of 56 trophies up for grabs:

• GC 528,000,000 and SC 1,320,000 in total prizes guaranteed
• Bounty and freezeout formats
• 3 leaderboards
• Exclusive Global Poker summer swag

Massive prize pots

With 28 Gold Coin and 28 Sweeps Coin events, there are enough prizes to go around.

In the Gold Coin series, you can win your share of a total guaranteed prize pot of 528,000,000 Gold Coins. Make your way to one of the two Main Gold Coin Events on Sunday the 3^rd of July, and you’ll be playing for a hefty GC 40,000,000 pot. That’s right: there are two main event games with a combined total prize of GC 80,000,000.

The Sweeps Coin series ain’t bad either. The total guaranteed prizes are set at SC 1,320,000. And since we’re talking about Sweeps Coins, those winnings can be cashed out as real money. Just like in the GC series, the SC tournament also has two main events, with a SC 100,000 up for grabs in each.

Exclusive trophies and summer gear

Every event in both the GC and SC series has a Summer Series champion trophy. Nothing screams SUMMER like this tropical poker trophy, complete with palm trees, a deck chair, and chip stacks.

But that’s not all. There are 3 leaderboards (or actually 6, since both GC and SC series have their own) for the tournament:

• Group A (Bounty-tournaments)
• Group B (Freezeout tournaments)
• Overall (A+B)

The winners and runners-up are in for a treat. Each leaderboard has its own unique swag distribution, but here are some of the exclusive summer items you could grab:

• Summer tournament trophies
• Unique Global Poker avatars
• Core hoodies
• Core t-shirts
• Shirts
• Tank tops
• Hats
• Flip-flops
• Towels
• Shades

In addition, there are a total of 16 entries to the GOAT IV tournament, played later this year.

Win your entry on a satellite

The Summer Series tournament is about to start, and by playing your cards right, you have a good chance of winning your entry ticket to one of the satellite tournaments. You’ll find the satellite schedule and the full schedule of GC and SC events on the Global Poker website.

During the event, the weekly tournaments at Global Poker will continue normally. The only exceptions are Saturday Swish and Sunday Scrimmage, which will be replaced by the Summer Tournament editions with the same playing times and buy-ins.

About Global Poker

Global Poker is the leading free online poker website in North America. In the states where real-money poker isn’t available, this is the closest you can get.

Instead of using real money to run the games, Global Poker features two different types of currency: Gold Coin (GC) and Sweeps Coin (SC). This model is known as a “sweepstakes promotion”.

Gold Coins are for entertainment only. When you sign up, you automatically get 5,000 Gold Coins! In addition, you get free daily Gold Coins to play the games. However, you can buy more Gold Coins and when you do, you also get free bonus Sweeps Coins.

Sweeps Coins can’t be purchased directly. Instead, you get them as a free bonus for certain actions on the website. Sweeps Coins can be used to play Sweeps Coins matches and tournaments, and you can redeem your winnings for gift cards and prizes.

Get ready and go coconuts at GlobalPoker

The Summer Tournament III is only a few days away. Find a place to bask in the sun, grab a cool drink and get ready for some hot hot hot poker action! And if you want to skip the entry fees, be sure to check out those satellites.
