Who has won what?

 

Sunday Killer…

Sunday 17/03/2024.


Winamax
We hope that SDM_100-8 enjoyed their Sunday Surprise on Sunday: their victory earns them €8,568, a good third of which is in mystery prizes. In any case, they'd better: they'll be playing in this tournament for 52 consecutive weeks, if they feel like it. In fact, they've being offered a weekly ticket to the Sunday Surprise for a year! But that's not the best part: over these 52 tournaments, our goleador will win, in addition to any winnings from the 'regular' prizepool, a €50 cash bonus for each player sent to the dressing room! They'll need to hit as many shots as possible over the next 365 days...

Sunday Surprise: caramelit0 mining for gold

Sunday 10/03/2024.


Winamax
Chipleader from the first hand to the last, caramelit0 didn't waver for a single second as they gobbled up the entire stacks of their opponents at the Sunday Surprise final table. As a result, in addition to their €12,099 prize, our champion has won €3,000 worth of tickets to spend at our Expresso tables during the 600 Millionth Expresso promotion. There's only one thing to say: well done!

The holiday of dreams…

Sunday 03/03/2024.


Winamax
Uppercuts galore, right hooks and some grappling allowed the Sunday Surprise to find its champion. Their name: Iwannarock. Six months after winning his first title on a "Pour le Daronne", this potential Twisted Sister fan spared no punches and stayed on their feet right to the end to walk away €13,160 richer and treat themself to the trip of their dreams. The hard part is choosing where to go...

Put your feet up in Zanzibar…

Sunday 25/02/2024.


Winamax
Almost €10,000 in prize money, after beating 14,656 players... Although we only know him from a podium finish on the Desperado last May, WellDoneMate wore his username rather well on Sunday. That's enough to give them a nice nest egg for their next holiday, which will take place in Zanzibar: yes, it's in the Indian Ocean archipelago that Winamax is offering them a dream holiday, in the company of the person of their choice. What's on the programme? Paradise beaches, guided tours of the capital Stone Town and Jozani National Park, and plenty of other activities at our champion's discretion. It was well worth being in the spotlight...

Gamer's paradise...

Sunday 18/02/2024.


Winamax
After seven hours of play, Elisssabeth reigned supreme in front of no fewer than 14,201 entrants to win the most magical of our Sunday tournaments for almost €9,377. It was a first win on Winamax and not the least for the player who, with their new state-of-the-art 'Powergamer' tower and 27-inch 4k screen (among other gifts), will now have all the computer equipment they need to continue killing it at our tables!

Under the sunlight of the tropics…

Sunday 11/02/2024.


Winamax
Just when you thought the polar cold was over, winter temperatures are slowly creeping back across Europe. However, there is one person for whom this should not be a problem. Their name? GTOMAISON. By winning our Sunday Sunday Surprise for €10,774, the player who has never before finished in first place in a tournament in France will be able to relax in the warmth of Guadeloupe for a week.. Pani pwoblem!

Kills bills…

Sunday 04/02/2024.


Winamax
This year, thanks to Sunday Surprise, there's one person who won't have to worry about paying their bills. Their name? SharkOvitch. By dominating a field of over 15,000 entrants, the player who had never finished better than third place in the Mad Max had the luxury of winning our favourite surprising Sunday tournament, for €10,360. That's a year's worth of water, gas and electricity bills, with a 10% bonus on the total amount. There are no small savings, especially with Winamax...

Better Call Seoul...

Sunday 28/01/2024.


Winamax
Nine days after his very first title in a €50 6-Max KO tournament on the Winamax Series, Frank.Saint has blessed our Sunday Surprise: our champion took down the tournament after almost seven hours of suspense. It was a second win in ten days, and not the least for the player who, in addition to their €9,554 prize, won a trip for two to South Korea and its capital Seoul. Between market visits, cookery classes, shows and fine food tastings, our winner should have no trouble finding something to suit their taste.

Plough through the snow

Sunday 21/01/2024.


Winamax
Although it seems the harsh winter is coming to an end, there are still some beautiful places where low temperatures and snow continue to rule the day. And that's just how the winner of our Sunday Surprise, Ventilax2000, likes it. As well as taking home €9,577, they'll be able to escape to the heart of Savoie accompanied by the person of their choice. The programme? An all-inclusive week's holiday in ski paradise. Onwards and upwards!

Shine bright like a diamond…

Sunday 14/01/2024.


Winamax
As it does so well, the Sunday Surprise KO once again brought together an indecent number of hungry players. 20,898 players signed up, and in the back of everyone's mind was the coveted 5-carat Red Diamond status promised to the winner, with all its advantages for a full year: accumulation of Poker and Sports Betting Miles multiplied by 7 for a year, monthly bonuses to be unlocked, an invitation to Super Diamond Freerolls, and free entry to Main Events at Winamax live festivals. Enough to attract big players who are generally used to sitting down at the tables of starred restaurants that have a slightly higher price tag... Among them is a certain ElKasparov94, who needs no introduction, with two titles in our Main Event and a WinaSeries logo acquired during the Series last September, and they have now won a fourth big title on Winamax for €14,925, a second WinaSeries logo and 5-carat Red Diamond status for what promises to be a brilliant year!

all-you-can-eat Series buffet

Sunday 07/01/2024.


Winamax
In order to get the first Winamax Series of 2024 off to a fitting start, Sunday's Mass Start Surprise KO, as usual, sent the counters into overdrive. With 24,138 registrations and an initial guarantee of €170,000, which eventually rose to around €217,000, the lights were on. It has to be said that when the winner was promised, in addition to their prize money, a package comprising 266 single tickets to play all the tournaments in the Series, which is bound to make the mouth water. And at the end of 7 hours 20 minutes of play, it was VELIAL, as yet unknown to us, who came up with the best recipe. A prestigious victory, a flurry of all-expenses-paid tournaments and the princely sum of €16,297, gleaned at the dawn of a year 2024 that clearly couldn't have got off to a better start.

Triple your salary…

Sunday 31/12/2023.


Winamax
The cocktail in Snoop87's hand as he bids farewell to 2023? Probably a combination of Gin and Juice. Having dropped it like it's hot against nearly 5,000 opponents, our winner is now starting The Next Episode of his poker career with €4,157 in the bank and a nice bonus from Winamax: a tripled salary. "Money, mo money, get money", as the old saying goes.

Seeing double in MTTs…

Sunday 24/12/2023.


Winamax
Celebrating Christmas on a Sunday evening obviously didn't stop many of you from taking part in our Sunday tournaments such as the Sunday Surprise, which saw its guaranteed prize pool (albeit lowered to €20,000) almost double. Who benefited the most? A certain JV_Crack9, as yet unknown to us. A win worth almost €3,750 for our champion who, for one week, will have all their winnings doubled for every tournament played on our site. That's right, Christmas lasts a whole week on Winamax!

Hamper down…

Sunday 17/12/2023.


Winamax
By winning this weekend's Sunday Surprise, Musaranas won't have to worry about what they're going to eat for Christmas and New Year's dinner: they've simply won a huge trunk full of gustatory treasures, filled with delicatessen products from the Grande Epicerie de Paris. Foie gras, champagne, terrines and other exceptional products will delight their friends and family alike. A real Christmas present before its time for this Expresso player, who will also be able to pride themself on having won the princely sum of €8,479.

It’s raining Main!

Sunday 10/12/2023.


Winamax
A year of Main Event freerolls. That's the huge package that Quarisma-Tic has just won thanks to the Sunday Surprise. A year to take on some of the best players on our site while trying to win their share of the prize money, which never dips below six figures. In fact, our favourite surprise tournament had a whopping prize as well, enabling our winner to pocket €5,933, in addition to €2,424 in bounties. It was worth re-entering twice!

Once upon a time in the West…

Sunday 03/12/2023.


Winamax
After taking first place in the Commando last September, slasher764_ once again had the quickest draw to defeat more than 16,000 cowboys and win the Sunday Surprise for €8,241. It was a tournament that also promised the winner a smooth entry into our Saloon, with €3,000 worth of tickets to spend on our Expresso tables starting this Monday. Yee-haw!

Tuscany, where grape things happen…

Sunday 26/11/2023.


Winamax
You win, you go to Tuscany. It may sound hard to believe when you put it like that, but that's exactly what the winner of this weekend's Sunday Surprise was promised in addition to their share of the €100,000 guaranteed prizepool. 777SP4148188 didn't need to hear that twice. At the end of 6 and a half hours of play, and ahead of no fewer than 13,880 competitors, the player who had not put in a notable performance since their victory in the Pour la Daronne two years ago can now pride themself on having won the most unpredictable of tournaments. First place, €7,622 in prize money and an all-expenses-paid trip. Grazie Mille!

MeetYourB has a head start on the festivities

Sunday 19/11/2023.


Winamax
MeetYourB has their Christmas dinner checked off the list: two months after a fifth-place finish in a Winamax Series event, they have won the most beautiful and surprising €10 tournament in the world. The result: as well as pocketing nearly €10,000 today for their victory ahead of over 13,000 entrants, they're making off with two chests (get it?) filled to the brim with the finest victuals from the famous luxury gourmet brand founded in 1886. Foie gras, truffles, terrines, chocolates, chestnuts, not to mention champagne: there's nothing missing. Of course, it's Winamax who signs the order form, and all our winner has to do is wait for the postman's bell to ring. We know someone who'll be royalty at the bar in five weeks' time...

When WiPT rhymes with VIP...

Sunday 12/11/2023.


Winamax
Everyone was short, everyone was tired (it was three in the morning): as a result, the final of the second Pokus Sunday Surprise lasted just 32 hands. Even the €10 Magic Mystery Trident final table lasted longer, that's for sure! The biggest field of the evening (17,050 registrants!) gave birth to an additional qualifier for the Winamax Poker Tour Grand Final in the person of wmx-fv97qwi, who will be offered VIP treatment in Paris or Madrid in early 2024... in addition to pocketing €11,802 today.

A truly magical festival…

Sunday 05/11/2023.


Winamax
€4,498: that's the total in buy-ins of the 217 tournaments on the Winamax Pokus schedule. And it's also the amount of buy-ins won by tofffe for our autumn festival, if they play all the festival events this Sunday. After an extraordinary deep run in the Mass Start Surprise, at the end of which they dominated a field of 16,817 entries and won a prize of €12,211, the champion wins an invitation to all the Pokus tournaments scheduled until 12th November. The former Night Club, Pop Corn, Sud vs le Rest du Monde and Totem finalist could well be in for an enchanting 12 days... All that's left for them to do is perform their best poker tricks!

All fire and flames in the land of the Dragon...

Sunday 29/10/2023.


Winamax
Ten days for two in Vietnam to discover the sublime landscapes of Ha Long Bay on board a boat. All in all, we could almost forget that Netero also won more than €9,000 for his victory in the Sunday Surprise, dominating a field of almost 14,000 opponents. Congratulations!

A real fjord fiesta…

Sunday 22/10/2023.


Winamax
He hadn't had a performance like this since February 2021 with his win in the Pour la Daronne tournament, but on Sunday, Glitchy let his skills speak for themselves in his win of the timeless Sunday Surprise. In order to do so, this low-stakes reg had to beat out a field of 14,127 to take down a personal top score at Winamax: €9,353. Their dry spell comes to an end, which gives our lucky winner the chance to discover the gorgeous fjords, which will leave them speechless.

Two lucky devils off to Miami...

Sunday 15/10/2023.


Winamax
As of yet, he has never deposited a single cent on Winamax, but this hasn't stopped him from building a bankroll from several freerolls. After taking down this past Sunday Surprise with just under 13,000 runners, Oberwannn leaves with €9,058, his biggest score at our tables by a long shot! But aside from this nice four-figure score, our lucky winner will have the luxury of flying to Miami and discovering the numerous white-sand beaches and their turquoise waters. What amazing timing considering the cold weather is on its way in...

Monopolisez the game…

Sunday 08/10/2023.


Winamax
It's been over three years since RAANGE ROVER last put in a big performance with a second-place finish in a €10 Winamax Series event, but they're back in business. The King of 4x4s won the most unpredictable tournament of the week ahead of just under 14,000 entrants, and walked away with a whopping €11,140, including €2,299 in bounties. But that's not all. As well as adding his new biggest win on our tables to their bankroll, this off-road motorist will be able to dream even bigger with €3,000 in tickets to spend at the Expresso X MONOPOLY tables.

Feel the rhythm! Feel the rhyme!…

Sunday 01/10/2023.


Winamax
Three weeks after coming within a whisker of the title with a third-place finish in the €250 Marathon Mystery Championship, __MisK__ has decided to improve their standards. And nobody can blame them. In fact, they won the most unlikely tournament of the week in front of no fewer than 14,273 entrants, and collected a handsome cheque for €9,379. But that's not all. As well as adding this hefty sum to their bankroll, the winner of the evening will be able to enjoy no less than eight days of Caribbean exoticism by flying to Jamaica with the person of their choice. Ideal for discovering Rastafarian culture and diving into the heart of the many coral reefs.

A not-so forbidden fruit…

Sunday 24/09/2023.


Winamax
Winner of the week's most surprising tournament ahead of more than 13,000 entrants, 100pWin27o_ will be able to live up to Matt Damon's line in Good Will Hunting. Because as well as pocketing €9,321, they'll be eating apples... Golden high-tech apples that have just fallen from the tree of a famous Californian firm! The latest smartphone (we're on the fifteenth model), a 'pro' version of a tablet, an updated connected watch, plus a couple of tasteful accessories: our winner is perfectly up to date... at least until the next product release from Silicon Valley.

Not just any watch…

Sunday 17/09/2023.


Winamax
It was exactly 3:20am on Monday morning when NaxoQ won the Sunday Surprise Mystery that began at 20:30 on Sunday. And the reason we're telling you about this specific timing is that, in addition to their €9,815 prize and their prestigious title, our champion will now be able to watch the dial turn on a real little jewel of watchmaking: a Breitling Navitimer Automatic 41 watch, featuring the famous Breitling 17 mechanical self-winding movement, all securely fastened to their wrist by an alligator leather strap. It's enough to make them look like a high-stakes player in their next live tournaments, as their biggest win here was €1,368 in a Mini WSOP final. Unless, of course, they're using their new toy to make sure they don't miss the start of the next Sunday Surprise!

A diamond in the rough...

Sunday 10/09/2023.


Winamax
During the Winamax Series, the Sunday Surprise goes from being a classic to a must! Clearly, chopedsuprem had made a note of it in their diary. They beat a field of 19,355 players to take home no less than €12,850, including €3,519 in prize money. Quite a performance considering their already impressive trophy collection. Already the winner of a €100 Series Show One last year for over €15,000, and runner-up in a number of tournaments including the Main Event and the Battle Royale, this regular at our high stakes tables will now be able to enjoy a fine reward. In the space of just one tournament, they will be awarded Red Diamond status and will be able to collect a large number of Miles and bonuses, play in exclusive, richly endowed freerolls and take part in all our live events. The Sunday of a lifetime... or at least of a year!

Sunday Surprise: fight for the Series …

Sunday 03/09/2023.


Winamax
There's one player who's sure to have a great couple of weeks at the Series. By overcoming a field of 21,274 entrants in the Mass Start Surprise KO, Le_Plaisiiir didn't miss out on their first Wina Series title for €14,840. But as well as adding the biggest prize of their career to their trophy cabinet, our champion will, as agreed, be able to take part in all 253 remaining tournaments in the Series! It's one of the biggest gifts of the year, and one that should enable our winner of the evening to start their fortnight as calmly as possible. And why not dream even bigger?

Dream bigger…

Sunday 27/08/2023.


Winamax
A win in the Sunday Surprise is already huge. All the more so when you've won a total of €8,076, a sum that's sure to spice up your daily life. Just like the prize also awarded to C est duuur: a pack of two video projectors! Because at Winamax, we've thought of everything: as well as the big 4K machine to install at home to multitask or watch whatever they want, we're also offering a portable version that will allow our champion to enjoy high resolution anywhere, even outside their living room. That's right, their screen-watching sessions are going to get a real boost...

Score a bag of cash…

Sunday 20/08/2023.


Winamax
We don't know if guuuyyy is a football aficionado, or which club they support. But one thing's for sure: if football isn't their cup of tea, the Sunday winner will quickly become interested in it, and naturally find themself a favourite team for the 2023/2024 season. This is because they'll win a cash bonus of €100 for every goal scored during the season by the first division team closest to their home! On top of the €6,669 they earned for their victory on Sunday, that's a minimum four-figure sum. Even then, it would mean that the local division 1 team is not in its prime... We hope for their sake that they will follow in the footsteps of navystrange, who cashed in €6,500 last year thanks to Olympique Lyonnais. Come on, it's time to smash the back of the net!

Goals scored, cash earned...

Sunday 13/08/2023.


Winamax
The number 33.33 is said to be associated with luck and success, and symbolises expansion and greatness. The pseudonym of Sunday's winner is not going to cast any doubt on these beliefs: it was indeed under the username 33.33 that our champion bagged the €6,678 awarded to the last standing player in the event, with, we imagine, a certain amount of luck (it takes luck to overcome a field of over 12,500 entrants!). As far as expansion is concerned, that's going to come gradually, over the course of the football season: our goleador will collect €50 for each point scored in the championship by the first division team nearest to them, in addition to the shirt of the club in question. That's enough to buy a few tickets to see the local club in the VIP box, and if our champion is not yet a football fan, this is the perfect opportunity to get started. On the road to greatness...

I Want to Bet Free...

Sunday 06/08/2023.


Winamax
FantomasVol is our new soccer expert! In any case, we hope that's what he'll become. By winning the pre-season Sunday Surprise classic, he'll be able to make some waves on the first division championship in their country of residence, without spending a dime. For each of the days in the competition schedule, they will receive €100 in Freebets to spend as they see fit. All that remains for them is to stock up on information (there's no shortage of guides and broadcasts on the Internet and elsewhere) and win their place in the Champions League of bettors. Because as for poker, with a nice €5,500 win to go along with €2,000 in bounties, they have nothing more to prove.

Luxor, give me more…

Sunday 30/07/2023.


Winamax
Known for its countless pyramids and mysterious temples, Egypt is a destination we all dream of. And this week’s Sunday Surprise was generous once again. In addition to the €7,100 up top, BRUGODSSSS also won a trip for two in the land of the pharaohs. During their nine-day journey, they can explore the Pyramids of Giza from top to bottom. Along the Nile, in the heart of the Valley of the Kings, they can discover the magnificent Temple of Luxor and the beautiful site of Karnak. A little culture is nice, but so is enjoying yourself. That's why our big winner will then head off to Hurghada, one of the Red Sea's most popular seaside resorts. Between the turquoise waters and fine sand, they’re sure to find their own little corner of paradise.

Climbing Black Mountain…

Sunday 23/07/2023.


Winamax
The Balkans have become an increasingly fashionable holiday destination in recent years: never the last to follow trends and offer trips to the four corners of the planet, the Sunday Surprise is offered Sunday's winner, Laitcailleur, a trip for two to Montenegro! A country where the duo will be able to enjoy a wide range of activities: the fiesta in Budva, the local St Tropez (just as well, our champion also won €8,169 to treat themself to a few evenings out), lazing around in Kotor, and a few days in the great outdoors with canyoning in the Skurda river, rafting on the Tara river, or a sailing trip in the Kotor mouths. Yes, paradise isn't that far from home...

€3,000 to chase Diamonds…

Sunday 16/07/2023.


Winamax
By winning this weekend's Sunday Surprise, Thunder2-FaB took home €9,000. That's a great prize in itself, and should ensure that they have a great summer, wherever their holiday takes them. That being said, we don't know their exact plans, but they're going to have to play a few Expresso in the next few days. To mark the 10th anniversary of online poker's most popular format, Thunder2-FaB, as the winner of our Sunday tournament, is being awarded €3,000 in Expresso tickets, which they can use as they see fit. 3,000 Expresso for €1 each? No problem. Take a chance and play six €500 Expresso? That's possible too. It's up to them. Either way, good luck!

Cowboys, skyscrapers and jazz…

Sunday 09/07/2023.


Winamax
They already won the Noctambule, the Night Finisher, the €10 Monster Stack and the Terminator. But this is the first time that fanatsib has cashed in a four-figure jackpot on home soil, thanks to their victory in the latest Sunday Surprise. And we hope for their sake that it will also be the first time they've visited Texas and Louisiana: they have bagged a two-week trip for two on a memorable road trip through these two legendary American states. It's a chance to experience a whole range of local culture, from ultra-modern cities like Houston, to Bandera-style cowboys, to festive New Orleans, where jazz is a religion. Las Vegas is for another time...

Bratislava we love ya…

Sunday 02/07/2023.


Winamax
TiCroisToi? Sunday's winner takes home not one, but two packages for the Winamax Poker Open in Bratislava next September. Accompanied by the person of their choice, TiCroisToi will have the chance to play the Main Event twice, as well as the Battle Royale, the Colossus, the heads-up tournament on iPad... They'll even get two tokens to use every night for the Deglingos, including the Championship version! All of this, hosted like a king at the tournament venue. On the downside, we won't be paying the bill for bar orders during their stay. No problem: with over €9,000 already won on Sunday, our champion will have enough to send out a few rounds...

The origins of mythology…

Sunday 25/06/2023.


Winamax
Over the last five years, cooki_06 has won a number of tournaments in our €5 to €10 bracket (Fast Food, Samurai, Guerilla, Digestif), and this Sunday they finally added the best one of all to their list of achievements: the Sunday Surprise! As well as winning a staggering €9,361 (including bounties), they'll be able to play at being an instagrammer by showing off their real-life photos against a sunset backdrop during a heavenly trip to the Greek islands of Paros and Santorini. There's plenty of time to dance the sirtaki.

On your bike…

Sunday 18/06/2023.


Winamax
"On your bike!" is Tony G’s punchline of choice after taking a big pot from an opponent. For Keanu Raise, it's quite the opposite: their €9,600 Sunday Surprise win has earned them - courtesy of Winamax - a state-of-the-art electric bike. Keanu: the chosen one on two wheels.

Namibia, the promised land…

Sunday 11/06/2023.


Winamax
"Better be lucky than good" is often heard at the Las Vegas poker tables. It certainly takes luck to win a tournament with a virtually infinite field, in this case the Sunday Surprise: 13,656 entries, enough to fill the Horseshoe and Paris casinos, which host the WSOP, to max limit. But we have no doubt that Luckyjango was modest when choosing their nickname: because despite the saying, luck alone is not enough to triumph at poker... For their efforts, Luckyjango pocketed almost €10,000. And soon, they and the person of their choice will be flying off to the promised land of South Africa, Namibia, for an all-expenses-paid holiday.

Win a bracelet on your sofa…

Sunday 04/06/2023.


Winamax
Mini Las Vegas on Winamax means 84 tournaments to play starting this Monday until 18th July. And AKy1A will be able to play all 84 of these MTTs for free: thanks to their victory on Sunday and in addition to the €10,348 prize for first place, they will be offered a buy-in for every single one of these events - a €8,714 gift. So yes, it may be a little less than the usual Series schedule, for example, but that doesn't make our 1/100th world championships any less prestigious. Who hasn't dreamt of winning a WSOP bracelet, especially from their living room?

Norway au naturel…

Sunday 28/05/2023.


Winamax
A boat trip off the coast of magnificent fjords, killer-whale watching, a snowmobile expedition, a dog sled ride, all set in the midst of grandiose landscapes... Yes, you can have all of these experiences in the same part of the world. More specifically, in Norway, where CabbageBrinG, the winner of Sunday's competition, will spend a week in the company of the person of their choice, in addition to the €9,280 raised for their victory. And if they don't catch a glimpse of the Aurora Borealis on their dream trip, at least they're sure to have had a great time...

The pearl of the Caribbean…

Sunday 21/05/2023.


Winamax
The Caribbean is known for its warm sandy beaches, and the Dominican Republic lives up to this reputation. But there's more than just the turquoise sea to admire in this country occupying the east of the mythical Isla Hispaniola: between the capital Santo Domingo, classified as a UNESCO heritage site, the delicious local rum, ecotourism in Jarabacoa, the Baiguate waterfall or Las Terrenas, there's plenty to do. This is what yuriksRD2.0, our Sunday champion, will find out on the spot: they will be leaving for a big week in the Dominican Republic with the person of their choice! We've also planned snorkeling, horseback riding, boat rides and a rafting trip... All that's left is to find time to go to the beach!

The trip of your dreams…

Sunday 14/05/2023.


Winamax
€9,000. That's how much Angello365 won with the Sunday Surprise, after a re-entry they certainly won't be regretting. It's an amount that could allow them to fly to any destination of their choice at any time. But they won't even have to dip into these funds for that. In collaboration with our tour operators, they will be able to concoct their holiday of dreams, alone or with the person of their choice, to any corner of the globe.

Light the Koh-Lanta flame…

Sunday 07/05/2023.


Winamax
€3,000: a hefty cheque cashed by phil lagaule, who will be able to have fun under the coconut trees of Koh-Lanta Expresso! Will they opt for a bankroll management "à la MIK.22" by favouring volume on the small limits or will they try to go all in on our €500 tables? Whatever their choice, they could win up to ten times the amount of their buy-in, and increase a prizepool that is currently close to €400,000. Oh, and did we mention that they also won €9,721 after defeating over 14,200 opponents over the course of a nearly seven-hour tournament? The law of the jungle!

Qualified for the Champions League final...

Sunday 30/04/2023.


Winamax
If DouBleMiNi7 wasn't interested in the Champions League until now, no doubt they'll be following the semi-finals over the next two weeks, between Manchester City and Real Madrid and AC Milan and Inter Milan. Because in addition to the €10,313 they won for their victory in the Sunday Surprise, our Sunday goleador, a former Trident winner, will be watching the final of the competition in Istanbul in VIP mode in just over a month! Category 1 seats, a personalised welcome and a top-of-the-range meal, all accompanied by the person of their choice... This is a match that should make them love football!

Yucatán friend in me!

Winamax
Every week, you wait to see what the Sunday Surprise has in store for you (in addition to the big guarantees, of course). And every week, one of you finds yourself winning a large sum of money as well as a big surprise. These are the ingredients that make the Sunday Surprise one of the most popular online tournaments in France. Yesterday again, this MTT did not disappoint. The €100,000 guarantee was largely exceeded. And the victory went to titidum. A hard-fought win, as they didn't hesitate to re-enter the tournament four times. This was probably the best €50 spent in this player's life. Thanks to this victory, titidum will be able to enjoy, with the person of their choice, a 12-day all-expenses-paid trip to Mexico. Their €9,600 prize could also be used to extend their stay if they feels like it. But that's none of our business. Have a good trip, Titi!

An Indian paradise…

Sunday 16/04/2023.


Winamax
Blue Jodhpur, white Pushkar, the pink city of Jaipur, the Red Fort of Fatehpur Sikri and the ivory towers of the Taj Mahal: thanks to their victory on the Sunday Surprise, KKofJunGle and the person of their choice are going to have a magical week in India. And we imagine their face lit up as well when they received their €9,745 prize, a far cry from the €1,300 they won on the Crunch last August. The biggest mystery prize went to AAkttittina, 237th for €33 and... €4,715 in bounties!

Diamond in the rough…

Sunday 9/04/2023.


Winamax
Over 7 hours of battle to defeat a field that reached almost 20,000 registrations: newcosmos earned a well-deserved prize of €12,682 for being the last player standing in the Sunday Surprise. However, as is tradition, the €10 Sunday Surprise never lets one good thing come unaccompanied, as Winamax added a nice diamond-shaped cherry to this little x1,200 jackpot: Red Diamond status for a year, and all the advantages that go with it. Miles that multiply at full speed, exclusive bonuses and freerolls, and an invitation to all our live tournaments: newcosmos was aiming for the moon, we just propelled them towards the stars.

On the Series rooftop…

Sunday 2/04/2023.


Winamax
We know someone who's going to have a busy schedule until next Thursday. By winning the Sunday Mass Start Surprise - and dominating a monstrous field of 22,022 entries, ToToDoo secured the biggest payout of their career, €13,904, after their second place finish in a Summer Shot last summer or their final table in the Ball Trap, Guerilla and Uppercut, but that's not all. No, the champion is also invited to all 246 tournaments of the Spring Series! And this is not an April Fool's joke... So there are plenty of opportunities to add to the prize money already collected on Sunday, which should allow our winner to allow themself a few re-entries if necessary. And why not make it a double by climbing to the top of another of our buildings?

The bracelet is coming home…

Sunday 26/03/2023.


Winamax
We don't know if they've ever been to Las Vegas, but one thing is certain: icemoun974 will be there this summer for the World championships of poker. In addition to the €8,863 they won for their victory in the latest Surprise tournament, they also won a package to experience the World championships of poker like a pro, or almost! A stay for two people including 7 nights at the Paris Hotel (they can simply take one lift to get to the tables), and above all a $2,500 buy-in so that our champion can register for the tournaments of their choice. All they has to do is look at the schedule: from the $400 Colossus to the $3,000 6-max (by completing the buy-in with their Sunday winnings), via the $1,500 Millionaire Maker, icemoun will have plenty to enjoy. And they can always dream of the famous bracelet... Good luck!

Cape Verde on a red carpet…

Sunday 19/03/2023.


Winamax
Sometimes it's good to change your habits. .ARTHURHUGO., who is more of a small-limit Expresso fan than a tournament fan, came to see what was going on in the Sunday Surprise on Sunday, and was well served. While their best performance to date is a fourth place finish in a €10 Monster Stack last May for just under €150, this time they beat over 15,000 players (including top regs Florian 'Alba 1998' Decamps and Antony 'ANTOM8KZEPOT' Darmani, 19th and 11th respectively) to take the €6,415 first prize. But that's not all, of course, as they also collected €2,305 in mystery prizes along the way. This journey will take them all the way to Cape Verde with the person of their choice for a whole week. Getting out of your comfort zone can take you a long way.

Killer instinct...

Sunday 12/03/2023.


Winamax
Winning the Sunday Surprise once is already a great performance. Especially when you add €3,771 in bounties to their €7,734 in winnings. However, the best part is that LE SENSHU will have the opportunity to repeat their performance, and without paying a cent: 52 times, to be exact, since they have won one year's worth of Sunday Surprise tickets. Best of all, the champion will win a €50 cash prize for each player eliminated during these 52 tournaments! If they keep up the momentum from Sunday, we know of one player who is likely to make a lot of victims, to the delight of their bankroll./p>

Half a billion…

Sunday 05/03/2023.


Winamax
€3,000 worth of Expresso tickets: that's a lot of money for any grinder to hit a big jackpot in normal times... So imagine if that nest egg is usable right in the 500 millionth Expresso period, when a 3,000x jackpot Expresso Gold Bar could fall at any time. Makes you want to get on the grind, doesn't it? In addition to their €10,613 in winnings, Sunday's winner weedlife9494 can try to embellish this beautiful evening with a new ticket... At the time of writing, dozens of Gold Bars have already been given out, allowing their winners to bag up to €10,500 for a €10 Expresso! Not to mention that our champion on Sunday can still hit a seven-figure jackpot: and no less than eight 1 Million Expressos have already been played since the beginning of the year... Just saying.

Sunday Surprise: the land of smiles...

Sunday 26/02/2023.


Winamax
Good things come to those who wait, as the saying goes. In May 2011, nono591234 entered a young poker tournament that had not yet celebrated its first year of existence, the Sunday Surprise. After reaching the final table ahead of over 5,400 players, the northerner had to settle for fifth place (which still meant €2,400 in winnings), missing out on victory and a weekend in Italy offered by Winamax. Fast forward twelve years later: nono591234 is back on the Sunday Surprise final table. In the meantime, the attendance of our Sunday tournament has increased somewhat (three times more registrations), and so has the experience of our hero, it seems. Because on Sunday, no one could stop him from going all the way and winning a first prize of almost €10,000, plus a week for two in Thailand. And now we can finally wish him a nice holiday, on us!

The Land of the Rising Sun…

Sunday 19/02/2023.


Winamax
Although there are plenty of art & culture centres giving a good overview of the culture in the Land of the Rising Sun, Vincerelis won't have to buy a ticket: on top of the €11,020 they will receive for their first place on Sunday, they will be offered a trip for two to fabulous Japan! An exceptional trip where they will be able to choose to do what they want, between city life in Tokyo or Kyoto (we booked them the train between the two cities), or a nature trip, by climbing Mount Fuji... We even added a complete guide to help them decide among the multitude of things to do and see on the 6,852 islands that make up the Japanese archipelago. By the way, when is the next sumo tournament?

Hala Madrid y Nada Más...

Sunday 12/02/2023.


Winamax
Combativeness, tenacity, resilience... These are all qualities that are necessary for any good tournament poker player, along with... Pugnacity. And they certainly displayed those qualities to win against nearly 15,600 opponents, playing until 3:20 in the am; but the game was worth the labour. While they left the biggest mystery prize to Myke Towers, who was eliminated in 131st place after opening a €4,317 prize (that's more than fourth-placed Cachibache99 won), our belligerent winner managed to bank (at least) their second five-figure win of the year. A runner-up in a €50 WSeries, this time they fought their way to the trophy, pocketing a hefty total of €10,800. The win also gives them the right to compete in the Grand Final of the Spanish Winamax Poker Tour, with €3,000 available for them and the person of their choice. Vamos!

Sheriff of the Expresso Saloon…

Sunday 05/02/2023.


Winamax
It's a liqueur that no other cowboy will be able to enjoy at the Expresso Saloon counter: in addition to the €11,028 they won for first place, Stoic89 wins €3,000 in tickets, just for them, to spend as he pleases until Sunday 12th February on our Expresso tables! That's enough to make the most of the Saloon Expressos, which are triggered once you've won an Expresso x2. Our tough cookie will then have to change their cards as best they can to leave with the loot... unless they choose to put everything back into play, double or nothing style. Come on, bottoms up!

East Coast express...

Sunday 29/01/2023.


Winamax
After N. Barella's victory last week, another regular of our MTTs almost won our most popular tournament: Charles 3bet finished 7th in a field of 15,385 entries, for €1,415 + €86 in bounties. They leave the 1st place to Fripouille, who cashed for €7,503, with €3,541 in bounties. They will be able to spend this money as they please in the United States, as they also win a trip to the East Coast for two people! Between New York, Washington and Philadelphia, which they will reach by train, our globetrotter will be able to get a good overview of the American way of life with guided tours to see as many sites as possible in record time, between the White House, the Liberty Belle and the Statue of Liberty (thanks to the New York City Pass). Come on, everyone in the pick-up... er, the dining car.

WiPT Grand Final like a VIP...

Sunday 22/01/2023.


Winamax
N. Barella was our grand winner this week, bagging the Sunday Surprise Mystery for a prize of €10,262, including bounties! But now they'll have to stop grinding online, as their victory has rewarded them with a great package for the Winamax Poker Tour Grand Final in March, accompanied by the person of their choice! €3,000 in tournament tickets, accommodation and transport paid for by Winamax: it seems N. Barella will have the opportunity to live like a Winamax Team Pro in Paris!

Snowy paradise...

Sunday 15/01/2023.


Winamax
We hope that GoffaLolita likes snow: in addition to cashing in on a prize of €9,674, Sunday's champion will be going on a week-long winter sports trip with three people of their choice to the world's second largest ski area. Accommodation in a 3-star residence in Belle Plagne, top-of-the-range equipment and a lift pass included: our grand winner will be able to explore the Paradiski area as he pleases, which, given its altitude, will not have any snow problems this winter. And what's more, this is not the first time that our downhill skier has won the Sunday Surprise, which is a rare feat: two years ago, it was in sunny Morocco that they were invited to a treasure hunt in the desert. But now all they have to do is find the right ski boots... And see you in two years?

Red Diamond in the sofa...

Sunday 08/01/2023.


Winamax
Over €200,000 in prize money: the Series special edition of our favourite surprise tournament was played in Knockout mode on Sunday, and had no less than 22,442 attendants. In the end, everyone celebrated the union of Anal del KK with the best players of Winamax: in addition to his €14,604 winnings (including €3,558 in bounties), the young groom joins the very select family of Red Diamond 5 Carats players (not for life, but for one year). An exceptional VIP status, which grants him advantages such as 7x faster Miles accumulation, registration to an exclusive monthly Freeroll with a €15,000 prizepool, additional bonuses amounting to €8,000 each and entry to Winamax Live festivals.

The Series in first class...

Sunday 01/01/2023.


Winamax
Playing in the biggest Winamax Series in history (€25 million guaranteed - never been done before), without spending a single penny: that's the dream that LHNFQLEP made a reality. Behind this username, which could have been written by their cat, is the one and only freeroller of the festival. As of today, they will receive the equivalent of €14,612 in tickets to play all 235 tournaments (once each) on the schedule. This is almost the same amount as the €14,690 they received for their victory at 3:14am after two re-entries! The future winner did not give up, as they did during the hundred hands of a final played with very little depth, during which they had to overcome a four-to-one chip deficit in heads-up play, surviving a 30/70 which could have been fatal, before turning the tables in two moves. We now wish them as much success until the 12th so that we can, why not, sing their praises again!

Three salaries under the tree

Sunday 25/12/2022.


Winamax
No, DealerdeChip, you're not seeing triple after all your Christmas festivities, and your victory in the Sunday Surprise on 25th December: in addition to the €5,289 you won at the end of a tournament lasting seven hours, Winamax will apply a small x3 coefficient to your next pay slip. This will allow you to give someone (or yourself!) a small ration of additional gifts before attacking 2023!

Double the presents under the tree...

Sunday 18/12/2022.


Winamax
The magic of Christmas is also on Winamax: thanks to their victory in the Sunday Mystery on Sunday, NitPourTjr will have all their winnings doubled on all the MTTs they will play until December 25th! That's enough to put twice as much under the Christmas tree, in addition to the €7,791 cheque pocketed for their victory (with just €64 in bounties), the biggest bounty having been won by leogomesss (anonymous 80th place in the tournament but cashing in €3,431). But for that to happen, our champion will have to prove themself on our tournament grid this week to get more scores that will earn them twice as much money, as they had no notable result before Sunday. Now is the time to build up their record and blow up the high scores...

Delicious delicatessen

Sunday 11/12/2022.


Winamax
Can you win a tournament as hotly contested and over-crowded as the Sunday Surprise without lying to your opponents? RegHonesto clearly proved that on Sunday, but it still cost them two re-entries. A negligible amount compared to the €9,325 they won, along with €113 in bounties. Instead, the jackpot fell to FairPlay_SE, who was eliminated in 269th place for €33 but not without opening a €4,445 mystery box! RegHonesto may not be able to have their cake and eat it too, but they'll still have plenty to eat, with a holiday hamper filled to the brim with delicious food from one of Paris's chicest grocery shops. Bon appétit!

Sweet Home Chicago

Sunday 04/12/2022.


Winamax
Le_CAptAin had a good run in the latest edition of our favourite surprise tournament. The man whose best results with us so far have been second places (in a Pokus, a WSeries tournament and The Fever) finally arrived at the finish line with the trophy in his hands, and not just any trophy. With €234 in bounties accumulated to go with their first place finish worth €9,949, they even reached five figures for the first time. We wish them a smooth ride to Chicago, which they will discover with the person of their choice for a whole week. Enjoy!

Winter sports in the Great White North...

Sunday 27/11/2022.


Winamax
When your whopping cash of €9,496 is accompanied by a great gift, you can be sure there's something to smile about. Because even though Krustyx won "only" €89 in bounties in Sunday's game, they'll be going on a wonderful trip to Canada with the person of their choice this winter! It's a special season in the land of the maple leaf, because even though the thermometer can drop to levels unimaginable for an average city dweller, it's above all an opportunity to take part in some pretty awesome activities, such as snowmobiling and dog sledding (expeditions already booked in the Mauricie National Park for our champion, among other fun things). Not forgetting the visit of Montreal and Quebec, the two pearls of the great white north... Yes, there will easily be enough to warm two hearts in Canada!

Freebets galore...

Sunday 20/11/2022.


Winamax
Our latest champion had already won a Monster Stack and a Totem. But this Sunday, it was a victory of a completely different scale that Lil_Maurice achieved. In defeating more than 14,500 players in this Sunday Surprise Knockout Special, they came close to reaching the five-figure mark, with €2,457 in prize money to go with the €7,317 win. But that's not all: to celebrate the start of the World Cup in style, they're being offered €2,000 in Freebets to spend as they wish on every match of the French national team. Yes, you read that right: that's a minimum of €6,000 for the group stage and up to €8,000 more if "Les Bleus" make it to the final. Enough to break the bank... before enjoying the festive season on their favourite island?

The World Cup of betting...

Sunday 13/11/2022.


Winamax
Here's one who fought hard to win the tournament: ya 2 fous had to beat a field of 16,263 registrants (!) to collect a prize of €12,169... As well as €10,000 in Freebets (yes, you read that right) to be bet only on the potential winners of the 2022 World Cup! It's a good thing our fortune tellers looked into their crystal balls to tell us that our champion likes to try big accumulators in sports betting on Winamax. Unfortunately, they didn't tell us who would win the World Cup... But there's no doubt that our winner will be looking closely at the question over the coming week, as their Freebets must be spent before the competition starts: an additional win of several thousand euros is at stake. Good luck to them!

Your ticket to the Pokus…

Sunday 06/11/2022.


Winamax
Among the winners of the first night of the Pokus, there is at least one that we will see every night until 17th November: BouYakaGus. Winner of the most popular tournament of the day, the Sunday Surprise (18,713 registrations), our champion from the Grenoble Poker club wins €13,456, as well as an invitation to all Pokus tournaments. This edition of our biggest €10 tournament of the week was played in Mystery mode. The biggest Mystery prize was given to -allmylife-, who was happy to see a €6,407 cheque before his elimination in 66th place.

Sunday Surprise: Survivor Sunday…

Sunday 30/10/2022.


Winamax
"This is one of the only tournaments I haven't won on Winamax yet," is the latest post on our lucky winner's Facebook page. Coming from any poker player, this remark would deserve a smile with a hint of suspicion. "Aren't you exaggerating just a little bit? Ha, these players, all the same!" Except when talking about Adrien Guyon. Eleven years, already, that this French player from Poitiers (who formed a part of Team Winamax in 2015 after his victory in the Top Shark Academy), has been incessantly adding trophies to his MTT collection... and he continues to improve, year after year, maturing like a good wine. Even today, PiuBellaVida - his current nickname - continues to find ways to add new gold medals to his already stellar collection. Much like this week's Sunday Surprise, whose vintage on Sunday 30th October was particularly tasty: over 15,000 entries and a prizepool of €137,241. Yesterday evening, Adrien launched one single €10 tournament. He did well: his first online session since his historic second place in the WPO Bratislava ended with a €11,000 win. This is a windfall to which must be added €3,000 in tickets offered by Winamax, which will allow him to try out THE great adventure that Winamax is offering until 15th November: the Koh-Lanta Expresso.

Release your inner geek…

Sunday 23/10/2022.


Winamax
Winter is approaching, and nights out in beer gardens are slowly being replaced by nights in with hot beverages and warm blankets. Asturi150 won't have to think too hard to find something to do when the cold weather sets in: in addition to their cut of €9,310 from the prizepool for their first place in the latest Sunday Surprise (of which only €249 were in bounties, but we're sure they'll get over it), our winner has bagged a state-of-the-art arcade machine! Yes, our gamer doesn't even need to move their butt to the local arcade anymore: they will have over 3,000 vintage games (and more recent ones, thanks to PS4 or XBOX One compatibility) at their disposal at home, all on a full-option machine worthy of the best arcades, and personalized with a Winamax design! The hardest thing to do now is to choose: Pacman, Street Fighter or Mario Bros?

Break the ice with Iceland

Sunday 16/10/2022.


Winamax
We hope that Jalillard saw the details of his first place win (€8,888, those are the straight facts, with a nice bonus of €471 in bounties) because his eyes will pop out of his head when he sees the gift coming his way in addition to his victory at the Surprise Sunday: a trip to Iceland! He and a travel companion of his choice will get to spend a week travelling around the Land of Fire and Ice, where they can admire the Northern Lights, take a snowmobile ride, swim in the mythical Blue Lagoon, hike on the Vatnajokull glacier, visit the capital Reykjavik, or observe the fjords and whales, not to mention other fantastic discoveries. Bon voyage!

No pain, no gain...

Sunday 09/10/2022.


Winamax
Put the kids away, barricade the doors and windows and don't make a sound: this Sunday 9th October saw the emergence of a new Sunday Killer. An evil entity who will be invited to the 52 upcoming editions of the Sunday Surprise, whilst collecting €50 cash for each of his victims. This future serial killer answers to the pseudonym of Timerkhan, winner of a tournament switched to Mystery mode for the occasion, which exploded its guaranteed prize of €80,000. That's enough to put €9,658 in your pocket, whilst waiting for the carnage to come. Prior to this, the biggest mystery prize went to DMM888, who was eliminated in 110th place but was happy to pocket €4,610 in bounties.

Tango Unchained…

Sunday 02/10/2022.


Winamax
Ah, Argentina... Asados, Diego Maradona, Lionel Messi, Che Guevara, the debt crisis... and the tango! We hope for U.S. Leblanc that they like dancing (or else this will be a good opportunity to start): in addition to the €9,784 for first place, Sunday's winner bagged a trip to the home of Albiceleste for two people. They will be able to discover the country through the prism of one of its most ancestral traditions, between a course given in an authentic milango, the history of this dance through the historic districts of Buenos Aires, a visit to El Tigre and San Isidro, a Graffiti Bike Tour and, of course, a tango dinner show! So, shall we dance?

Sunday Surprise: bite the apple

Sunday 25/09/2022.


Winamax
Isaac Newton formulated the law of universal gravitation after an apple fell from a tree and hit his head. Matarum, on the other hand, will fall under the law of modernity. This week's lucky winner of a Surprise tournament boosted by the Mystery KO format (nearly 14,000 entries!), will be sent an assortment of the latest gadgets straight from the factories of a famous Silicon Valley firm. Top-of-the-line smartphone, tablet as light as air, smartwatch: everything you could ever need to keep the doctor away! And since there's still a bit of room left in the package, we're adding a couple of accessories to the mix: a stylus, a keyboard, and a set of headphones.

Sunday Surprise: play it like Alexane

Sunday 11/09/2022.


Winamax
The 5-carat Red Diamond is the most exclusive VIP status on Winamax. The queue in front of the red velvet cord stretches far beyond the eye can see. You have to wait for months, even years, during which you have to play an almost supernatural amount of cash games, Expresso or MTTs in order to reach the number of Miles needed to pass the bouncer at the entrance of this very closed club. AA Bosh AA, however, needed only seven hours and three minutes to enter the club, having won a Sunday Surprise tournament as a gateway to the Red Diamond Club. They came out on top in an edition that attracted over than 20,000 registrations, and took the lion's share - €13,808, to be precise - from a prizepool that topped €185,000, and will now enjoy the same benefits as Winamax's most regular players, including Alexane Najchaus, the latest addition to Team Winamax, whose regularity in Expresso has enabled her to join the club just two years after her first games. Among the very special rewards awaiting AA Bosh AA over the next twelve months are Miles that will now accumulate seven times faster to their account, two €8,000 monthly bonuses to unlock, €15,000 Freerolls every month, and an invitation to all live events organised by Winamax. For example, the Winamax Poker Open Bratislava, which will kick off in just two weeks time. Perfect: we can celebrate this victory together, and soon!

Sunday Surprise: get hungry for the Wina Series...

Sunday 04/09/2022.


Winamax
In this first Sunday Surprise in Mystery KO mode, no one was able to catch Guillaume 'VienMonBusto' Cambis. After being lead by three to one in chips at the start of heads-up play, the former pro golfer remained calm, patiently working his way back up. This continued until the favourable final match, offering him by far his biggest achievement on Winamax, a cheque for €15,766, and a tiny little gift: all his buy-ins for all the tournaments of the festival payed for, that is to say nearly €13,000 in buy-ins! He'll have to make some room in his schedule to make it all worthwhile.

Sunday Surprise: Bratislava like a king…

Sunday 28/08/2022.


Winamax
We don't know how many times they hit the nuts during the Sunday Surprise to beat a field of 11,136 players, but we are sure of one thing: thanks to this great victory, Noisette67, who had not recorded any convincing results on Wina for... nine long years, will be able to discover modern live poker the W way. Indeed, they will fly to the first Winamax Poker Open Bratislava in just under a month with the person of their choice! Of course, we'll give them the full package: €2,600 in buy-ins for two people (including two €500 buys-in for the Main Event and a €1,000 ticket for the Highroller), airfare, 4-star hotel, and some cash for expenses... We know some people who should have a great time in Slovakia.

Sunday Surprise: the gold at the bottom of the basket...

Sunday 21/08/2022.


Winamax
Ray Allen, Stephen Curry, Steve Nash, Luka Doncic... and soon payetonmelon? After dunking on a basketball-themed Sunday Surprise, our champion will be able to try to enter the Hall of Fame of our surprise tournament by making up to 25 three-point shots at the "ONE BALL" centre in Paris. For each successful shot, an additional bonus, and bonuses for each successive basket. All this in front of the Winamax TV cameras. So let's put on our trainers and get out on the floor to practice behind the line before the big day!

Sunday Surprise: to the back of the net!

Sunday 14/08/2022.


Winamax
Supporting the enemy. Betraying your team. Switching sides. These are the dishonorable acts that navystrange will commit over the next ten months. Because throughout the 2022/2023 football season, our Sunday Surprise winner will win €100 for every goal scored by the closest Ligue 1 club to him. We checked, and the closest first division club to navystrange is Olympique Lyonnais, located a little over 70 kilometres from his home in Firminy... a town nestled in the suburbs of Saint-Etienne, historical rival of OL! Our winner will be able to blame this betrayal on Saint-Etienne’s club, who made the mistake of being relegated to Ligue 2 at the end of the last season. Consolation: this betrayal will be accompanied by significant benefits. In the 2021/2022 season, OL hit the back of the net 66 times, coming in at number 3 behind Paris and Rennes. If Lyon performs as well this season, our winner can expect a payout of more than €6,000. That’s worth putting on a new jersey for a few months, right?

Points, that's all...

We’re used to seeing Shibnigurat crush our high-stakes tournaments this year. But this top reg seems to be doing just as well in the smaller buy-in tournaments, as he won the most famous of them all this Sunday, the €50 Sunday Surprise Road to Mass Start Mystery. He'll take home €6,136 and more: for the 2022/23 football season, he'll also win €50 for every point scored by the team in the first division closest to his home! Verification complete, and our lucky winner lives in... Moldova, in Chișinău, whose main club, FC Zimbru, was almost relegated into the second league last year. But Shibnigurat can already tell himself that this club has started this season off better than last year, with two draws in the first two matches. And that last year, the champion, Sheriff Tiraspol, still finished with 70 points. So our Moldavian friend should still win some good buy-ins from this season...

If they don't already follow much football, headshooott may well get into it this season. Not only did they bag €7,350 for their victory in our latest surprise tournament, but they will also be credited €100 in Freebets to spend on each of the 38 games of the 2022/23 Ligue 1! Yes, that's a €3,800 envelope over the whole season to drop some heavy bets on our national football championship. Now it's up to him: try a Mortal Kombo over ten matches? Bet on an avalanche of goals during PSG-Auxerre? Or take advantage of it to place a few live bets? We'll just remind them of grandma's advice: don't put all your eggs in one basket (or on your favourite club)... In the meantime, it's time to study the season guides: Ligue 1 resumes this Friday 5th August at 21:00 CET with a Lyon-Ajaccio match to open the first of the 38 rounds scheduled until next May. The road to riches starts here!

The summer will be warm…

Sunday 24/07/2022.


Winamax
We imagine The B0ss had a heat stroke (or at least not cold sweats) for our Sunday Surprise. He had to fight his way through a field of over 10,000 players to win the prestigious trophy and take home the €7,463 jackpot (with a nice chunk of change in bounties). We would also like to say he did not make a mistake winning this tournament... because this Sunday, the winner gets an original gift: the chance to pocket €100 for each day the thermometer hits 31°C at his place of residence for a year. And it turns out that our champion is located in Le Soler, a town in the Pyrénées-Orientales (Occitania), one of the top 15 hottest departments in our beautiful country! They say, this Monday, we will already hit highs of 34° in Le Soler, already well above the seasonal norms... Boom, 100 quid just like that! The summer season is far from over... We know someone who won’t be complaining about the heat this summer.

Sunday Surprise: seeing double for a week…

Sunday 17/07/2022.

We definitely recommend Salim937 not to leave the Winamax tables this week! Up until July 24 at 23:59, we will be doubling his MTT profits. Yes, yes, ALL of his profits: his min-cash in a €2 tournament and his future win in the Highroller (Well, that’s what we're hoping for, at least). A crazy week of grinding to come, which he will be able to pay for, largely because of the €8,566 he won from this potentially very lucrative Sunday Surprise.

The pearl of Cambodia for a jeweller. It would be difficult to find a more appropriate winner for this new edition of the Sunday Surprise than the_jeweler, who will soon be flying off with the person of their choice for a week's privileged visit of the Angkor domain and its sublime temple, Angkor Wat. Not to mention that with the €8,456 from their victory, they now have almost unlimited money for their stay in Khmer land. អបអរសាទរ, as they say!

Two weeks in Sri Lanka, all expenses paid, to discover the local fauna (sea turtles and elephants in particular), the natural wonders of the country and its cultural and religious wealth: yes, there is reason to have doubts. However, it is indeed the sumptuous gift won by TiCroisToi, which they will be able to enjoy with the person of their choice. And that's on top of a prize pool of almost €8,500, by far the biggest they have ever won with us. Pinch yourself, you're not dreaming!

Sunday Surprise: a year of freeroll groceries...

Sunday 26/06/2022.

€100 a week, for a year: that's how much we're giving Bl3da-0ne, the winner of our latest Sunday Surprise, to fill up their shopping cart - €5,200 to spend care-free, starting today. And that's on top of the €8,704 they've already earned for winning the tournament... When they arrive at the checkout of their nearest market/supermarket/grocery shop, our champion will only have one thing to do, knowing that Winamax will refund them once a month: carefully bag their free purchases with a smile. Time for a shopping spree!

The safari of a lifetime...

The summer holidays are approaching fast, and TKTPAspan can already smell the open air. In addition to the €7,656 sent to their account, the winner of Sunday's game will also be going on an exceptional trip to Namibia with the person of their choice. A country where they will be able to enjoy an inexhaustible array of landscapes: between the cosmopolitan capital Windhoeck, Walvis Bay and its pink flamingo colonies, Etosha National Park or the Namib Desert, there is plenty to see. Not forgetting Twyfelfontein and its 3,000 thousand-year-old petroglyphs, or even a hot air balloon ride for the more adventurous. There's a smell of holidays in the air!

Obviously, the topic of the moment for the whole poker planet is the world championships of poker and their famous champions' bracelets. Both those of Las Vegas, which our reporters have been revealing to you day after day for a fortnight now, and the miniature versions offered by Winamax with Mini Las Vegas. The latest edition of our favourite surprise tournament also offered a bracelet... quite different, but no less prestigious: a watch signed by one of the most renowned manufacturers in the watchmaking world, Breitling. After some great cashes in the April Series, Fran6LaLine is taking off, both literally and figuratively: this €7,300 win is the biggest victory of their career on Winamax, and allows them to wear a jewel of a chronograph designed in homage to Curtiss Warhawk, one of the greatest aeroplane manufacturers in history.

EN DT was this week's champion of the Sunday Surprise in knockout mode, allowing them to cash in a hefty sum: their victory earned him €9,772, by far their best score on Winamax, after taking down the Dernier Round and the Sprint last year. But above all, our lucky winner will also be heading to Africa for a week with the person of their choice, to discover two of the jewels of the continent: Victoria Falls in Zambia, and Chobe National Park in Botswana. This is a great opportunity to marvel at one of the most beautiful waterfalls in the world, and to see some of Africa's magnificent wildlife, including the park's herds of elephants. Someone's in for a treat...

"Enjoy the moment without worrying about tomorrow": if you are familiar with the Latin expression, you should know that there is a South American version of the adage, summed up in Costa Rica under the term pura vida. A mantra that THE MAGICI4N is going to experience directly themself: in addition to the €8,036 they won for their victory in Sunday's surprise tournament, they are going to spend a whole week in the country of the Ticos! During his stay, accompanied by the person of their choice, they will be able to enjoy the countless charms of a territory dear to some grinders, known in particular for its magnificent natural landscapes. Isn't life beautiful?

Winamax, CS 50 746, 75345 Paris Cedex 07. This is the postal address that ---RMax--- is asked to write down and keep preciously the day after a €6,817 victory on the Sunday Surprise. Because, let's be honest, we're rather jealous of the dream holiday that awaits him in Wyoming, the wildest state in the United States, and we wouldn't say no to a little postcard of his upcoming road trip through the Grand Teton and Yellowstone national parks...

Keeping the World Cup…

Trainduseum was our champion this week, lifting his trophy, but that's not all! Because by winning the Sunday Surprise this weekend, they will be flying directly to Qatar, with the person of their choice, to watch the 2022 edition of the competition live and in person! In addition to the €7,652 collected to enjoy the emirate's giant malls, our winner has bagged two tickets to see France-Denmark, the second match of the French team in the group phase, played at Stadium 974 in Doha. The prize also includes an activity to choose from among a number of local traditions, such as a camel ride or a Bedouin-style dinner. If "Les Bleus" do their job properly, they will be able to return home in high spirits...

Who said no one would go to the 2022 World Cup in Qatar? One thing is for sure, it wasn't KKarlesxic. By winning the latest edition of the Sunday Surprise for €7,209, they're not just cashing in on the first big win of their Winamax career, they're also going to watch the French team's second group match in the competition, against our inseparable Danish friends, accompanied by the person of their choice. This is a golden opportunity to discover the brand new Stadium 974 like an emir, but also to take part in a side expedition of their choice before the big day, among a wide range of local activities (like a ride in the desert on a camel, for example). It's enough to make you feel like a World Champion...

Two tickets to a 2022 World Cup match in Qatar, especially to cheer on the French team in their second and most perilous group match against Denmark, makes it well worth to put a coin in the machine. Spade1Spade was not mistaken, and thus bags the second of the four Sunday Surprise tournaments dedicated to the World Cup. In addition to discovering the sublime Stadium 974 where the hostilities will take place, our champion will have the opportunity to discover the desert or the old Qatari city with an excursion of their choice. They must be careful, however, not to spend their whole €7,443 victory cheque in a single of Doha's many shopping centres.

Azazel75's Sunday Surprise win was a great kick off. The champion, whose username was created just for this Sunday's tournament, won €7,583 in cash, a good third of which was in bounties. Enough to buy some extras in Qatar next November... Because just like the next three winners of our surprise MTT, and accompanied by the person of their choice, Azazel75 will be invited to the Middle East for the 2022 World Cup to see the France-Denmark match, the French team's second game in the competition! And to make the most of this trip, we're also organising an unusual local activity the day before, to get them in shape. So, shall we go for the dune safari or Tuareg-style dinner?

Here at Winamax, this means being treated as a VIP amongst VIPs thanks to the ultra-exclusive 5 Carat Red Diamond status. Mitingho will get to live out this dream for a year because, in addition to taking down the Sunday Surprise for €12,779, he will get 5 Carat Red Diamond status and all the benefits that come with it: Mile accumulation rate multiplied by 7, cash bonuses of up to €16,000, entry into monthly freerolls with a €15,000 prize pool and invitations to all of the Winamax live festivals...

Fishkipeut's protective kit for the Winamax Series opening Sunday Surprise is a luxurious and reassuring helmet/knee pads/shoulder pads combo in the form of free tickets for all the festival's events. Now free of any financial pressure until April 14th, our winner will be able to try the most daring tricks over the next eleven days, without risking the slightest break, including in the most expensive and challenging tournaments on the schedule: the €250 Championship, the specialist variant tournaments, the Highrollers... This prize worth over €15,000 was given in addition to the lion's share of the prizepool: €16,607, in cash. Let's see what the official Series freeroller will try on the ramps and bowls of the festival in the coming days...

Sunday Surprise: 300 km/h on the track

It took almost seven hours to crown a winner for the Sunday Surprise, which attracted almost 12,000 players: this last edition before the Winamax Series in April was more of a marathon than a sprint. But for Bpykebyxanka, our winner (now €5,571 richer), those long hours of grind will soon be converted to pure adrenaline, brief moments of sheer terror, and the ultimate nirvana for any speed enthusiast: a real Formula 1 car, in which our winner will race through the Magny-Cours circuit for a very special day. An extreme driving experience usually reserved for a certain elite... but that's what the Sunday Surprise is all about: turning dreams into reality and making the impossible possible.

Sunday Surprise: chasing the Expresso gold...

It certainly took some good fortune for Lux.Boc. to win this Sunday Surprise ahead of nearly 12,000 opponents. But we hope he's saved some to play in Expresso over the next few days, because in addition to the €5,813 won for his performance, he will have a €3,000 bankroll to spend on our three-player Sit&Gos until the 400 Millionth Expresso falls! Our champion can choose to play this prize at the buy-ins he wants, hoping to land on a Gold Bar table. And why not on the most beautiful of all, whose jackpot could reach a multiplier x5000... Good luck!sofa...

€7,337: That's how much Mutuon won in the Sunday Surprise, beating almost 11,000 opponents. €2,250: That's how much Mutuon will be able to spend from 5th to 15th May in the Gran Casino Torrelodones at the Winamax Poker Open Madrid. Is it a coincidence that this is exactly the combined entry fee for the Main Event, High Roller and Battle Royale? Of course not, but he'll be free to pick and choose from a 47-tournament schedule. And he won't even have to worry about his expenses, as he's also being offered a €500 allowance to pay for it all. Pura vida!

We don't know if Uracan13 had planned to go to the cinema in the near future, but that won't be necessary any longer for our winner: by taking down the Sunday Surprise this weekend, they are now the proud owner of a state-of-the-art video projector as well as a 120-inch screen, to be set up in their home! The icing on the cake is that this Expresso specialist will be able to take advantage of their share of the prize money, i.e. €9,925, to buy new subscriptions, this time for multiple streaming platforms, in order to live a real Smart TV experience. Unless they prefer to invest in a brand new sofa...

GTGROS will be able to discover all this and more with the person of their choice for a whole week, thanks to their victory in the Sunday Surprise. Like a true balla, they'll even be able to spend some of the almost €8,000 they bagged on the tournament. It's a great day to be a winner.

€3,000: that's the amount of credit that cochon_jouff now has at their disposal for Expresso, following his victory in this weekend's Sunday Surprise. It's so fortunate (and so premeditated) that in addition to the €8,609 that the winner has bagged, they'll be able to have fun on the new version of our ultra-fast Sit&Gos, the Expresso Saloon! Our chief robber will be able to use the tickets as they please (6 Expresso Saloons at €500 each to try and hit the second ever €2 million jackpot? 3,000 €1 games to grind quietly?) to attempt as many double-ups as possible by playing the five-card poker of the real cowboys. So, are you ready to draw?

Dakar, Gorée Island, Pink Lake, Lompoul Desert: thanks to the Sunday Surprise, Cindarella will see a lot of the country during their week-long stay for two in Senegal. All they have to do now is find the right shoe, which shouldn't be too difficult with almost €10,000 to spend in the land of the new African champions, which is a much more lucrative prize than the one they bagged a month earlier on a €2 Monster Stack. We hope they keep winning tournaments and enjoy the ride!

Sunday Surprise: the treasures of Cape Town

Winamax
snatchavetoi has made quite the flamboyant entrance: though their record was void of any major title on Winamax until Sunday, they inaugurated in style by winning the Sunday Surprise for a prize of €9,554, a third of which was in bounties. A victory that came just at the right time, as it will allow them to travel to the other side of the world. Accompanied by the person of their choice, they will fly to South Africa, and more precisely to the city of Cape Town, where they will spend a week's holiday in a beautiful hotel. And we have planned quite the special stay: gastronomy with a wine route by tram, observation of the rich local nature with a sea kayaking trip, a cable car ride to admire the view from Table Mountain... without forgetting all the heritage of the city itself, between its architecture and its cosmopolitan districts. All that's left to do is enjoy!

He used the right tactics to overcome a field of 12,794 entries: POK_ETINHO wins the Sunday Surprise trophy and pockets a hefty €9,214. But, most importantly, they will be able to enjoy a great holiday: along with the person of their choice, they will go on a week-long trip to the heart of the Canadian Rockies! Hot outdoor baths, wildlife watching at nightfall, rafting, and all this in the middle of breathtaking mountain landscapes: we've pulled out the big guns on this one, including the hotels and the rental car, so that they will be able to take in all the sights. A trip that will remain engraved in their memory...

If -Rama- wasn't already able to do so before putting the finishing touches to his tournament at exactly 3.22am on Sunday night, he will now be able to travel the roads of France as he pleases. In addition to the €6,456 they won in a Sunday Surprise that clearly exceeded its €100,000 guaranteed prize, plus €2,881 in bounties, our Sunday champion will have to make some room in their garage for a brand new 125cc scooter and all the accessories that go with it. All that's left is to wait for the return of the good weather to go out on the road, alone or with a mate.

We don't know what NuocMamzz had planned for this winter, but what is certain is that their plans are changing, because their victory in this weekend's Sunday Surprise means that not only did they pocket the hefty sum of €9,274, but they've also bagged a week's all-inclusive ski holiday! And not just any holiday: accompanied by three people of their choice, they will be heading to the resort of Les Arcs, where they will be accommodated at the foot of the slopes in a 5-star residence with swimming pool, spa and so on. Of course, all the equipment and passes will be ready for them when they arrive, so they will be fully equipped for the slopes of Paradiski, one of the biggest ski areas in the world. Come on, it's time to work on your pole planting!

A regular of our low-stakes tournaments (winner of the Big Bang, the Kill The Fish tournament and runner-up of the After Foot last August), ndp33 has stepped up thanks to his victory in the Sunday Surprise: because in addition to the €16,439 he won for dominating a huge field of over 25,000 entries, he has been given direct membership to the very exclusive club of Red Diamond players on Winamax for a whole year! He's now a VIP on our site, with a plethora of benefits, such as a six-fold increase in mileage, monthly bonuses of up to €1,000, monthly freerolls worth €20,000 and invitations to Winamax live tournaments. It's time to discover a new world...

¡Viva las Winamax Series!...

Sunday 02/01/2022.


Winamax
The Winamax Series started off strong. CADvsZAD took down the opening Mass Start Surprise, winning a ticket of almost €20,000 after having beaten out a field of over 29,000 players in the middle of the night. And after having already won a series title in 2020 (and having won the Starter, La Fièvre and the €10 Monster Stack), he has already had a golden opportunity to boost his ranking. But now we are giving him entry to all Wina Series tournaments, at least 211 buy-ins for a total value of over €13,000! All he has to do is carry on for things to get even better.

A win that pays triple...

Sunday 26/12/2021.


Winamax
A 13th month is good. But a 13th AND a 14th month is even better. That is the great end-of-the-year bonus B3n&nuts will receive for winning the last Sunday Surprise of the year, which already won them €9,500. To be exact, Winamax will triple of their last pay slips or give them two times the minimum wage if they earn less or are not employed. A nice little gift for this great Expresso Nitro amateur, who had not won more than €500 on our site, and who outlasted Florian Decamps, 2016’s Top Shark, who busted 4th for €3,632.

Make it a double in MTT...

Sunday 19/12/2021.


Winamax
Yes, isaacgs won the Sunday Surprise at 3:05am last night. But frankly, we wouldn't be surprised to see him already in action on our tables this Monday morning... And for good reason: on top of the €8,235 he pocketed for his win, he'll see his MTT winnings doubled for a week! Maybe it's time to try some shots at higher buy-ins for the man who has already won the €20 Monster Stack and the €10 Derby this year? In any case, he can look forward to making his Christmas presents twice as big or putting some extras under the tree in a few days. We don't know what he's got planned for 24th and 25th December, but we hope no one will blame him for launching a few tourneys in between the turkey main and Christmas pudding...

Delicatessen for the discerning palate...

Sunday 12/12/2021.


Winamax
He was the -CkAptAin- of the Sunday Surprise this Sunday. Even better, our commander for the night was able to navigate through a field of over 14,500 players, lured by a Road to 4 Million special edition promising at least €100,000 in prize money, including 240 tickets to the Winamax Series' flagship tournament in January. After taking down the Night Finisher and the Terminator last summer, this time our champion has taken a much more prestigious title and, more importantly, his first four-figure score, in the form of a €7,261 check. A nice gift to spend the end-of-year celebrations in the warmth of his home, to which is added a sublime gift basket straight from the Grande Épicerie de Paris, filled with incredibly refined dishes. Looks like we know who is going to be hosting Christmas and New Year's Eve!

€3,000 to shout UNO!...

Sunday 05/12/2021.


Winamax
We can imagine that PUNKY- must be a fan of tournaments, as he pockets €9,749 for his victory in the Sunday Surprise. But one thing's for sure: he loves Expresso, having already won 40x and 20x jackpots in the format. And that's just as well: by taking down our flagship Sunday MTT, he wins €3,000 in Expresso tickets! Of course, it's no coincidence that we've decided to offer all this just in time for the Expresso x UNO... PUNKY- can expect to win bonuses of up to 100 times the buy-in of the three-player jackpot x2 SnG he will be playing until 15th December (after that, it will be too late and the remaining bankroll allocated this Sunday will lapse). Is our winner familiar with UNO? If not, we have no doubt that he will quickly get the hang of the game...

The setup of a lifetime...

Sunday 28/11/2021.


Winamax
We decided to go overboard with promotions this weekend on Winamax, and we hope you took advantage of all of them. Well, probably not as much as AA L Berto7, the winner of this week's edition of our Surprise tournament: he got a 100% discount on a gaming computer setup! Yes, in addition to the €9,535 bagged for taking down the tourney, he will receive a gaming desktop PC, a screen, a headset, a mouse and a keyboard without having to pay a single cent (well, okay, the €10 buy-in for the Sunday)! And all this stuff will obviously be state-of-the-art, not backroom drawers, so he can play like he's never played before (or at least he'll be encouraged to do so). Yes, for some people, Black Friday happened on a Sunday...

It's Christmas come early for Naujokas80: in addition to the €7,899 pocketed for his victory in the latest edition of the Sunday Surprise, this multiple Wina Series finalist will fly with the person of his choice for a trip to the land of our favorite bearded, red-nosed man, in Lapland to be precise. And we'll be the ones handing out the gifts: for a whole week, comfortably installed in his spa hotel, our winner will go on a snowmobile trip to hunt the Northern Lights, will experience the great thrill of a dog sledding trip, and will be able to take advantage of the biggest ski resort in Finland! An original gift package for an unforgettable Christmas!

In your Madison garden...

Winamax
We hope trakwife18 likes basketball. Or New York (but we have less doubts about that). In addition to the €8,757 he won at the stroke of 3am against over 11,000 opponents, our latest Sunday winner will receive two plane tickets to the Big Apple, where he will be able to attend a New York Knicks game of his choice in one of the most mythical venues on the planet, where the greatest have performed: Madison Square Garden. He will even be able to continue soaring on his little cloud far above the rest of the world during a helicopter flight, ideal for admiring the wonders of the city that never sleeps.

Winning the Sunday Surprise? A major victory for NicoCz. who had previously been content with podium finishes in the Cocktail or €1 Monster Stack. After beating more than 16,000 players, he also cashed in a cool €11,216, and a trip that's just as cool. Accompanied by the person of his choice, our winner will be flying off to South Africa! A trip during which he will discover the hidden gems of the rainbow nation, withurban cities, native villages, beaches, natural reserves, wildlife and so on. We have already planned all the accommodations from Cape Town to Johannesburg: he will only have to wander between the Cape of Good Hope and the Zulu territory, according to his will. Yes, this trip will also be at the top of his adventures around the world...

Sunday Surprise: open bar in Zanzibar…

That's it, the world is ours again, or almost. So it's time to start travelling again! As for Alcho, he can already start packing his bags, because in addition to his €12,332 prize, the winner of this week's Sunday Surprise will be flying to Zanzibar to follow in the footsteps of Freddie Mercury. Accompanied by the person of his choice, he will be spending a week in East Africa to discover this small archipelago of a thousand treasures: from your base camp where you will be staying almost with your feet in the water, you will be taken to visit the Jozani Chwaka Bay national park, the village of Muyuni, the Ngonga cave, Stone Town, not forgetting a food safari session and an excursion to Prison Island. In short, Alcho is all set for an amazing adventure!

Welcome to Miami…

Mad Max, Nuit Blanche, Money Time, Last Call, Rush Hour and now the Sunday Surprise. That's quite a climb for kaiser3693, whose €7,000 cash for his first place finish in our Sunday Surprise tournament is twice as much money as his previous biggest win. We'd advise him not to spend it all on his free trip to Miami, where he'll be able to enjoy a week's worth of fun with the person of his choice, culminating in a flight to seventh heaven on a tourist plane to admire Horatio Caine's beloved city from above. YEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!

Did Andric78 prepare himself like a true pro with a little gym session before his Sunday session last weekend? Well, we'll never know, but what we know for sure is that he will now be able to do this ritual every weekend, and even every day if he wants to, all without leaving his house: in addition to the €7,474 collected for his first place, after second place finishes in the €5 Big Bang and the €10 Monster Stack, he wins a connected home fitness set! In front of his 32-inch mirror-effect touch screen, he will have access to thousands of exercises right from his living room, distilled by coaches to keep in shape thanks to the iFIT platform, and will have all the equipment to perform them. And if big sessions are not his cup of tea, Andric will have plenty of time to sculpt a dream body by next summer.

The penalty shootout of your life…

Sunday 10/10/2021.


Winamax
His username might lead you to believe that he is an Olympique de Marseille supporter... If this is the case, 13plaisir will have to travel across France to visit the RC Lens training centre, and not as a fan: he will be challenging Mr Jean-Louis Leca himself to a penalty shoot-out that could well increase his winnings, which already stand at €7,774. For each successful penalty, he will win the sum of €1,500, and an additional €1,000 for each series of two consecutive penalties scored! In other words, he will have to aim high to beat one of the most experienced goalkeepers in Ligue 1... So, would you prefer a flat-footed shot or a panenka?

Sunday Killer

Sunday 03/10/2021.


Winamax
Yes, taking down the Sunday Surprise is already a great achievement. And JustPourVoir won't disagree, having cashed in a total of €8,100 for his victory in Sunday's edition, which recorded over 10,000 registrations and almost reached a €100,000 prizepool. Except that for the man who already won the Noctambule last May, the serious business has only just begun: our champion will be credited with tickets for the next 52 editions of the Sunday Surprise to try and repeat his feat. What's more, each elimination signed by his hand during these Sunday freerolls will earn him a €50 cash bonus. When you consider that JustPourVoir already cashed in €2,689 in bounties on Sunday, it's easy to imagine what another deep run could bring... In any case, we now know where to find our winner for the next 52 Sunday nights.

Sunday Surprise: the apple of your eye...

Sunday 26/09/2021.


Winamax
He was ready... to win a big pile of money: -ReadyCash- is going to have to prepare to welcome a whole new set of high-tech toys into his home. A new smartphone, a new tablet, new wireless headphones, a new connected watch: he's all dressed up for autumn in the colours of the famous fruity brand. And with over €7,500 in his pocket, he'll even be able to add a brand new computer to the list, so he can continue to click on those tables in the best possible conditions.

Sunday Surprise: Unlock our VIP Shop...

Sunday 19/09/2021.


Winamax
It's a rare privilege that suslenok will soon be able to enjoy: the chance to raid our VIP Shop! In addition to the €7,000 Sunday Surprise cash win, our champion has also bagged €5,000 in prizes from our inventory, including tournament tickets, Freebets, poker gear and clothing from our latest collection. As if that wasn't enough, they can also pick from the top shelf with the help of 50,000 bonus Miles. On your marks, get set, shop!

Main Event madness...

Sunday 12/09/2021.


Winamax
Some people dream of playing just one Main Event. Cabrooooon will be able to play 52 of them, and that's not just any tournament: we are indeed talking about the flagship tournament of our weekly schedule and its €100,000 minimum guarantee. In addition to the €13,941 he won for his victory over top reg RobindesNOix, our winner will be offered a €6,500 bankroll made up of a €125 ticket each week to try and increase his prize with, why not, some more five-figure winnings. We know someone who is going to have a fantastic year...

Sunday Surprise: shine bright like a diamond...

Sunday 05/09/2021.


Winamax
We've been saying it for a while now: your aim is going to have to be on point for the Winamax Series. Ididnotcheat can only agree, as he snuck into a field of over 26,000 entries and won the Mass Start Surprise - opening tournament for the Series. A wise move that allowed this former finalist of La Fièvre to win his first six-figure prize on our site (€19,471), but above all to earn his place among the very best players on Winamax, since his victory also gives him Red Diamond status for a whole year!

Sunday Surprise: strike the Winamax Series!

Sunday 29/08/2021.


Winamax
It was undoubtedly the most coveted gift of the year. A package containing €15,487 worth of tickets spread over 199 tournaments, and not just for any tournaments: we've given our winner an all-access pass ticket to the Winamax Series, which will kick off this Sunday 5th September. The prize managed to attract a big crowd, with over 11,000 players competing for the Grail, to make up a prize fund that flirted with six figures. Six figures is undoubtedly what LEBATMAN- is hoping to get out of our online festival this autumn, as he will have the unique opportunity to take part in each of the events at Winamax's expense, from the €2 Giant to the €2,000 Super Highroller. And with €5,909 pocketed for his victory, he'll even have a few coins to spare if he feels like re-entering some tournaments.

Sunday Surprise: one week, three eternal cities…

Sunday 22/08/2021.


Winamax
Rome, Florence and Venice: stepbystep76 will see all three of them with the person of their choice during a wonderful week in Italy. Our campione d'Italia has smashed his best result, getting his very first four-figure check on our website, amounting to €5,089. It should be said that he has earned a nice break on the other side of the Alps.

Sunday Surprise: get your score...

Sunday 15/08/2021.


Winamax
We have found the number one supporter of FC Metz for the 2021/2022 Ligue 1 season. A resident of the charming town of Vaxoncourt in the Vosges and last night's winner of yet another football-themed Sunday Surprise, nathanaelle8 will receive €100 for each goal scored by the Metz team at the end of the current season. That's enough to double the €4,900 she's already won and, above all, to keep her excited until next May about every Ibrahima Niane overrun, every Habib Maiga dangerous pass and every Fabien Centonze header in the box. No mean feat.

Sunday Surprise: cash in the points…

Sunday 08/08/2021.


Winamax
It's all well and good to throw a punchline after another in a battle, but above all you have bring more fire than your opponents! And on the big stage of the Sunday Surprise, Jazzybazzz beat several thousand freestylers on the applause meter to impose his flow and get his hands on a loot of €5,555, in addition to his ticket for the €50 Mass Start of the next Winamax Series. And we hope for him that the Ligue 1 Uber Eats club closest to his home will also be inspired this season, in another field: football! Living in Croix-Mare, near Rouen, Jazzy will win a €50 bonus for each point scored by Paris Saint-Germain during the 38 days of the 2021/22 French championship! That's pretty good news for him when you consider that PSG have been champions seven times in the last nine seasons. Jazzybazzz can also thank the football gods that Caen, Le Havre and Amiens, all former first division players, are in Ligue 2 this season...

Sunday Surprise: bring it home...

Sunday 01/08/2021.


Winamax
Does Lashmypy like football? If not, now is the time to get involved. If it is the case though, then the latest winner of the Sunday Surprise will be able to put his passion to good use. For each of the upcoming days of his national championship, he will be offered €100 in Freebets to use as he wishes. We'd advise him to try some crazy Boosted Odds rather than putting everything on favourites, but we don't need to give advice to a player who walked away with the trophy and €7,555 from his only tournament this week.

Sunday Surprise: a whale of a time

Sunday 25/07/2021.


Winamax
What a holiday, tabarnak! Yes, by winning the latest edition of the Sunday Surprise, Mynewwork19 not only bagged a whopping €6,743 - signing what seems to be his best performance on Winamax so far - but also the right to cross the Atlantic to discover the charms of Quebec! And as you know we like to pamper our winners at Winamax, and thus Mynewwork will not only learn the local language: accompanied by the person of his choice, he will be travelling for a week between the beautiful city of Montreal and the more traditional Quebec, at the wheel of a car specially rented for the occasion and staying in very nice hotels. Not forgetting the highlight of the trip: a whale-watching cruise. Now does anyone know where I left my French school books?

Greece lightning...

Sunday 18/07/2021.


Winamax
Even throughout the summer holidays, the Sunday Surprise works tirelessly to stay fun and exciting. It has to be said that this week's gift alone was a wonderful invitation to travel: a week in Greece between Athens, Paros and Amorgos. NeDoedeT, who has already taken down the Guerrila, Cocktail, Bowling and Payback tournaments since spring of this year, has won again, taking home his biggest prize by far this Sunday: €4,626 and €2,146 in bounties. Enough to treat yourself to a few slices of moussaka with a little ouzo.

1 yacht, 7 Croatian isles...

Sunday 11/07/2021.


Winamax
His name is JeuneRoQQ and he's our latest lucky winner of the Sunday Surprise! Not only did he beat over 6,000 unique opponents to win an incredible trip to one of the most beautiful countries in the Balkans, but he also pocketed a hefty prize of €5,723. For eight days, he will be sailing in a comfortable yacht in southern Croatia to discover the magnificent landscapes of the Adriatic coast! So what's in store for our champion? Seven surprising islands, without forgetting to step ashore to admire the treasures of Dubrovnik. Enjoy!

Play it like Curry...

Sunday 04/07/2021.


Winamax
Bidybabybel is going to have to take up basketball if it wasn't already the case, at least for the duration of a three-point shootout. Because this one could well earn him a lot (a whole lot!) of cash, in addition to the €7,501 he already pocketed for his victory in the Sunday Surprise. Indeed, our champion will be invited to send 25 shots into the hoop behind the three-point line for a session in All-Star Game mode at the Hoops Factory in Paris. And if he takes inspiration from Steph Curry or Ray Allen, he will be able to win up to €30,000 by scoring as many baskets as possible! Just make sure your aim is on point...

Back to Baltic...

Sunday 27/06/2021.


Winamax
In order to celebrate the arrival of summer, the Sunday Surprise returned back to basics: time for a holiday, with a trip to the heart of the three Baltic countries: Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania. We hope that RAmonDemon71 has a few more days off left for the year, as he will be able to discover the treasures of Tallinn, Riga and Vilnius, in addition to enjoying his €5,729 prize. A new title of choice for the man who had already triumphed on The Fièvre, Tea Time, Tie Break and several Monster Stacks. Especially when we add that it was acquired against GilouAA58300, double winner during the WSeries of last April, who this time leaves with €4,848.

Sunday Surprise: the good life in Sicily...

Sunday 20/06/2021.


Winamax
Before seeing life in blue, in the heart of a certain cult Luc Besson film (no, not Arthur and the Minimoys), after taking down this week's Sunday Surprise, FeeAsKo will be able to count his blessings: all €9,000 of them! This feat is made event more impressive due to the 12,000 registrations he had to surmount in order to lift the trophy! The eventual winner came into the final table with a tough stack to manage (only 15 BB) but quickly found a nice pair of Jacks to double up. It was only after a marathon heads up against ratonet (over 70 hands) that he could finally savour his triumph, and think about packing his bags. Destination: Sicily - volcanoes, pizzas and Ionian sea. Mamma mia!

Fill up on euros for the Euro...

Sunday 13/06/2021.


Winamax
We don't know if he's a sports bettor, but if he isn't Minniemon might as well get started today: after settling the Sprint in May and raising his arms at the end of the Last Round early last week, he's awarded himself a €7,455 win for his victory in the Sunday Surprise! And on top of that, he gets €5,000 in Freebets as a bonus to spend as he pleases on the brand new Winamax.fr Sports Betting interface! This should motivate him to place some big accas on the Euro or the Olympic Games this summer in order to try and increase his capital. And why not pay for a nice holiday?

European Champions of Expresso...

Sunday 06/06/2021.


Winamax
If you're looking for suslenok on Winamax over the next few days, we suggest you take a look at the Expresso tournaments. The Sunday Surprise winner will be able to have fun on a brand new promotion at our expense: we are offering him €3,000 tickets to try out the Euro Expresso. And we're sure he'll have a great time: each x2 jackpot played during the first round of Euro 2021 will allow him to collect the flags of the participating nations, score goals and win bonuses of up to 100 times the buy-in amount! We know someone who might have a hard time finding a favourite team this summer...

Sunday Surprise: front row seats for the Euro…

Sunday 30/05/2021.


Winamax
Euro 2020 (well, 2021) is only eleven days away, but JagerMaster has already qualified for the quarter-finals. And not just any quarter-final, because thanks to his victory in the Sunday Surprise, he will be travelling to Rome with the person of his choice on the weekend of 3rd July, to watch one of the final matches of the competition, and in VIP box seats at that! He also took this opportunity to shatter his high score on our site with a whopping €6,971 performance. Exactly what you need to organise a little party at home on June 15th for the start of the tournament.

Sunday Surprise: ride the waves…

Sunday 23/05/2021.


Winamax
We're not sure if -Prudence- took any risks in this week's Sunday Surprise, but one thing is for sure: his approach paid off, as this player, who was previously unknown to our team, won the tournament along with a cheque for €7,666, a third of which was in bounties, as well as a surfing course in the Canaries! He and an lucky friend of his choice will be taking 10 hours of lessons given by a professional, in order to get up to speed with the surfers of Sotavento, where they will be staying during the training period. Of course, we won't forget the well-deserved lazing on the beach after having succeeded in a first "take off" on his board... All that remains for our winner is to surf on the wave of his success!

Sunday Surprise: thar she blows…

Sunday 16/05/2021.


Winamax
The weather was bad last weekend and it certainly won't be getting better for the next (sorry for spoiling) but there is one place in France where the weather is (almost) always good: Corsica. An island of beauty that will bear its name even better for MenFish2Paye, since this lucky player will have the opportunity to admire it from the sea, accompanied by three of his friends, on a sublime luxury sailboat! A gift in addition to a cheque for almost €9,000. We just hope that our "fish-man" doesn't get seasick...

Sunday Surprise: sleep under the stars…

Sunday 09/05/2021.


Winamax
Having popped up on our screens at the beginning of April, from the top of a fully loaded Cocktail (2,091 entries, €1,633 in winnings), 36BB reached a milestone on Winamax last night by dominating nearly 12,000 entries in the most popular ten-euro tournament on the poker planet. On this Monday morning, 36BB can admire his balance which has seen a sudden increase of €8,338... and start asking himself the crucial question: who will he put on the guest list for the nature getaway we're offering him in the heart of the Chartreuse massif in France? It's a difficult choice: only three of his relatives will be able to enjoy four full days in the open air, between mountain bike rides, Nordic baths, canyoning and evenings admiring the stars from a hut perched above the trees. We know a lucky few who will be experiencing a first-class deconfinement...

Your own TV bed…

Sunday 02/05/2021.


Winamax
It takes a lot of luck to win a poker tournament, especially a Sunday Surprise with over 12,000 entrants. CHATAR DU 43 certainly won't say otherwise, as winner of this week's edition for €8,298, including €2,214 in bounties, his very first four-figure cheque on Winamax. He'll even be able to sleep in it, in his new 5-star hotel-style boxspring bed with multiple layers under the mattress for the best night's sleep. And all this after having watched his favourite series directly from his bunk thanks to the integrated TV. All that's left to do is make a little space in the bedroom.

Bring on the heat...

Sunday 25/04/2021.


Winamax
The sun is definitely starting to show its face... and that's just what coto40, winner of last weekend's 100K Sunday Surprise, needs right now. In addition to the €6,568 + €3,123 he pocketed for his victory, he will increase his prize money by €100 every day that the temperature reaches at least 30° Celsius according to the data from the weather station closest to his home, and this for a whole year from this Monday, 26th April 2021. And his home is in Cordoba... Andalusia! This is quite simply one of the hottest regions in Europe, with average temperatures generally and precisely above 30°C from June to September! We know someone who is likely to have a hot summer...

A very high-class dinner…

Sunday 18/04/2021.


Winamax
frenchgeek probably likes to spend time staring at his computer, and it paid off, as he won the 100K Sunday Surprise. In any case, he now has a rare opportunity to raise his nose from his screen, and to raise it very high: because in addition to the €10,172 pocketed for his victory (including €3,248 in bounties), he has won a ride in a... hot air balloon! It's quite something, but imagine that in addition to taking a ride in this ecological flying object, he will enjoy a gastronomic dinner with champagne in the basket, accompanied by five of his friends and family! For an hour and a half, a butler will take care of the meal and the guests, whilst the pilot will take the little group over the most beautiful landscapes of the Ile-de-France region in France. A great way to feast your eyes and taste buds... before returning to his beloved screens.

Live the VIP life…

Sunday 11/04/2021.


Winamax
As expected, there were plenty of top regs in the Series Highroller. A certain Ita4Ever joined the starting line on Sunday, and will be staying in the VIP booth for at least a year: by winning the Sunday Surprise for €11,429 + €3,873, i.e. the lion's share of the €208,206 prizepool, he also granted himself the coveted Red Diamond status! Whilst even the best grinders have to play for weeks to get it, this ex low-stakes player only needed 7 hours and 9 minutes to get the exclusive advantages that come with this VIP rank, such as tickets for Winamax live tournaments, a big Miles multiplier, VIP Bonuses, and access to dedicated Freerolls... Enjoy!

Your ticket to the thrill-ride

Sunday 04/04/2021.


Winamax
Kinexite. Keep an eye out for this username on your Winamax Series tables over the next eleven days, as you will be dealing with a player who doesn't have a single worry in the world. Hands in pockets. Straight chillin'. Cool as a cucumber. After triumphing over a record field of 31,893 entries in the Sunday Surprise, Kinexite can now freeroll the entire Winamax Series schedule. In addition to a first prize of 2,215 times the buy-in amount, we're crediting him with approximately €15,000 worth of tickets to play ALL of the festival's events. That's enough for this stranger to tease high-stakes tables he's probably never visited before... and maybe get struck by lightning a second time, who knows?

Pilot of your destiny…

Sunday 28/03/2021.


Winamax
After already finished fifth in a big Sunday Surprise tournament last year, and having won the Top 50 in 2019, Loubak is cashing in on €6,060 for crossing the finish line first in a field of 13,511 buy-ins. What's more, just like Lewis Hamilton, winner of the first Grand Prix of the Formula 1 season in Bahrain on Sunday at the wheel of his Mercedes, he too is getting the right to drive an exceptional car for a few laps of the circuit! Prost, Benetton or Williams: once he has learned the basics of driving these historic cars, it is up to him to make his choice and put himself in the shoes of one of the two most successful drivers in F1 history. Be careful, it's going to be a bumpy ride...

Hunt for the Northern Lights…

Sunday 21/03/2021.


Winamax
Temperatures are slowly rising, much to our delight. However, we know one person who will have to endure the Winter weather once again, as he is going to travel to the North of Norway, where summer is a vague utopia. However, this shouldn't such a difficult experience for him: and for good reason, fredo 13007 wins an exceptional trip to the land of the fjords, in company of the person of his choice. What's more, between a night in a tent, a hunt for the Northern Lights, a dog sledding trip, a snowmobile ride or lazing around in a luxury hotel in Tromsø, there is plenty to motivate him to pull out his duffel jacket for a trip he won't be forgetting. Finally, he'll be able to treat himself during his trip thanks to his €8,277 first place prize. Cold hands, warm heart...

Fill up the tank…

Sunday 14/03/2021.


Winamax
Diesel, Super, LPG, or chips, soda, chocolates and chewing gum if he doesn't have a car: thanks to his victory in the Sunday Surprise, Patenga will be able to spend up to €300 per month on the Winamax tab, in all the gas stations of a famous French multinational. Enough to make you want to get all your friends together in your car and go celebrate at the other end of the country thanks to the extra €10,000 prize on top. Don't forget the jacuzzi in the rental house!

Your cinema at home…

Sunday 07/03/2021.


Winamax
In order to win the Sunday Surprise, you have to beat several thousand players of all skill levels (15,181 entries on Sunday): SMOKEFISH seems to have a clear goal of beating the lesser players, and it paid off in Sunday's tournament, which he won for €7,685 + €3,646. Enough to stock up on popcorn and sweets to enjoy the replay of his performance like no Sunday winner has ever been able to do, as he wins a state-of-the-art TV, with a 77-inch screen and OLED technology for exceptional picture quality, with all the gear to set up his beastly machine without changing the furniture in his living room. It seems our winner will be living his best life in the next confinement...

Stay warm in your igloo…

Sunday 28/02/2021.


Winamax
Who hasn't imagined spending a night in a snow house? Must be fun, but in the Swiss Valais, the concept has been taken to another dimension, at an altitude of 1,700 metres: Miarital, winner of this weekend's Sunday Surprise, will be able to see for himself. In addition to his €9,365 first place prize, our champion has won a long weekend in an igloo "2.0"! In "Les Cerniers", a site well known for its responsible ecotourism, he will be able to admire a magnificent view of the mountains from his comfortable "pod" whilst warming himself with a wood stove, among other pleasures. And when he feels like leaving his cosy nest, we've got it all covered: an aromatherapy massage, unlimited access to the Finnish sauna and, above all, an unlimited pass to the site's private ski resort! Oh, and our modern Eskimo will have the right to be accompanied by three people of his choice... So much for a unique holiday!

Tilt the game in your favour…

Sunday 21/02/2021.


Winamax
It's been about two months since -2F- was on the rise on Winamax, but that was nothing compared to what was in store for him at 3:08am on Sunday night. Emerging triumphant over almost 14,000 opponents, with no need for extra balls, he won nothing less than the Sunday Surprise, even breaking the five-figure mark with €3,700 in bounties to go with the €6,996 prize money. Even better, after winning a number of coin flips, he went on to win the most complete pinball machine, a real technological gem with an LED screen and more than 820 tables from the most prestigious licences. Get ready to tilt!

Love is in the bag…

Sunday 14/02/2021


Winamax
It's in the bag for JB101 this week! After having failed on the last step of the Top 50, the Road to Million Championship and the €20 Monster Stack, our winner took down this weekend's Sunday Surprise and cashed in for a hefty prize of €9,699. On top of that, he was rewarded with something to carry his bundles of money with him if he feels like it (or simply something to give as a nice gift to his sweetheart): a (very) top-of-the-range Hermès bag, to choose between a men's or a women's model. Here's one who shouldn't regret having spent Valentine's Day clicking rather than preparing a candlelit dinner...

Time is money…

Sunday 07/02/2021


Winamax
3:34 in the early hours of the morning; 7 hours and 4 minutes after the tournament kick-off. This hour will long be remembered by Pilligrim, as it is the time at which he scored his first ever major title in our country. Pilligrim, who had never bagged a four-figure sum until this date, even managed to reach five, thanks to €4,535 in bounties in addition to his €7,664 first place prize. All he has to do now is wait for the return of good weather to be able to walk proudly through the streets with his new luxury watch on his wrist. A trophy you can take anywhere with you: the stuff of dreams for any champion!

Sunday Surprise: a damn fine cup of coffee…

Sunday 31/01/2021


Winamax
We know that it's difficult to wake up on the right side of the bed on a Monday morning... Well, not for everyone: we do know someone who is going to have a good time at the beginning of each week. As if he already didn't have enough to jump for joy when getting out of bed thanks to his €9,977 prize (including €2,524 in bounties) for his first place in the 100k Sunday Surprise, DslaTeTd1Pro also wins a professional coffee machine! Espresso, macchiato, latte, americano, ristretto, and so on: before starting work (or simply to start the day off right), he will be able to prepare a drink every morning that will make him forget the closing of his favourite café or the soulless coffee from the coffee machines at his workplace... And in order to honour his new toy, the winner also wins a one-year subscription to "Terres de Café" to enjoy the highest quality coffee, which he will receive every month. Enjoy!

Sunday Surprise: a full trolley… for free!

Sunday 24/01/2021


Winamax
We don't know if he was the type to look at the prices of all the products he picked up on the supermarket shelf, but h4mano is now going to be able to spend (almost) blindly on his shopping for the next 52 weeks. Thanks to his victory in this week's Sunday Surprise, Winamax will reimburse him for his everyday purchases over the coming year, up to €100 per week. That's without even mentioning his €7,605 first place prize, which he bagged without too much stress with €4,384 in bounties, which is enough to organise a nice feast with the family, to build up a nice cellar or simply to please the kids. Our best regards to the supermarket's cashiers, and above all: remember to keep the receipts!

You got the looks!

Sunday 17/01/2021


Winamax
The king of style has been anointed: rise, sir 3betfold27! This week's champion took down the first post-Series Sunday Surprise of the year, along with the title of "most stylish player at our tables". A future playboy who will soon be sent two new personally-chosen and personalized outfits per month for a year. This should suffice to turn our champion into a fashionista, and a happy one at that, thanks to the €11,109 in prizes pocketed along the way (inc. €3,400 in bounties). Must be nice, huh?

Shine bright like a Red Diamond...

Sunday 10/01/2021


red diamond
Prior to his victory in the Sunday Surprise this Sunday, it would certainly not be insulting to say that AAom_bryanKK was not standing out from the crowd as a player on Winamax, as he only had a few small final tables under his belt. But that was before: from now on, he will be known as one of our top grinders, since his victory here has rewarded him with Red Diamond VIP status for a whole year, in addition to a hefty €15,992 cheque (including €5,018 in bounties)! And it's an understatement to say that his life as a player is going to change: for 365 days, he will benefit from all the undue advantages of this exclusive club comprising barely a few dozen privileged people in the world, such as six times faster accumulation of Miles, two monthly bonuses of €500, a monthly Freeroll with a €20,000 prizepool and tickets to the next Winamax live festivals.

Mass Start Surprise: All Aboard the Series!

Sunday 03/01/2021


Winamax
Our most famous of cruises was especially played in Mass Start knockout format last Sunday, and obviously, the treasure of the week, which took the form of an all-inclusive VIP pass for the Winamax Series, was highly coveted: the event registered no less than 28,943 entries! Far from being overwhelmed by the number of entries, H2SPOK won the battle and finally received the largest share of the €260,487 prizepool, i.e. €18,513 (including €4,596 in bounties), in addition to an entry ticket for all 198 Wina Series tournaments! In other words, he can embark serenely to conquer these new lands, at the head of a war treasure that already represents nearly €13,000 in buy-ins. Now, it's up to him to turn it into gold coins!

Sunday Surprise: jingle bills, jingle bills…

Winamax
Surprisingly enough, nothing in our archives or on our favourite reference sites allowed us to find any history about Karlose. But from now on, he will forever remain as the winner of a post-Christmas Sunday Surprise in Road to 4 Million mode that exceeded its €150,000 XXL guarantee. A very prestigious first line on his CV (at least under this nickname), helping him pocket €4,724, along with €2,962 in bounties. And as a not-so-insignificant victory bonus, Karlose will see his next salary tripled by Winamax! A double bonus at the end of the year which comes just at the right time before attacking the record Winamax Series.

Sunday Surprise: tuck in…

Sunday 20/12/2020


Winamax
Although we are more used to hearing of our own Borja on Winamax (Borja Gross, member of Team Pro W for you newbies out there), he is obviously not the only talented player to wear this moniker: indeed, a certain BorjaCotayu won this week's Sunday Surprise, collecting the sum of €7,543. But above all, he is now ready for the festive season: as he is now the proud owner of a basket filled with 13 dishes, each one finer than the next, from a Parisian gastronomic institution, with three magnums of carefully-selected wine to put the cherry on the cake. Foie gras, desserts, truffles, chocolates, and even tea signed Alain Ducasse: our winner is ready to throw the Christmas dinner of a lifetime.

Challenge the Pros…

Sunday 13/12/2020


Winamax
It is true to say that propokNL has already achieved a major performance by winning the Sunday Surprise this Sunday: beating over 10,000 players and winning more than €10,000 (€10,106 exactly, including €2,678 in bounties). However, a completely different challenge awaits our winner now, where quality will take precedence over quantity: he will have to face 10 members of Team Winamax in online heads-up gaùes! Admittedly, this means fewer players to eliminate, but it's a one-on-one competition with some of the best European pros... In order to add some motivation (as if they need more), propokNL will receive a cash bonus of €500 per duel won, and a bonus based on the total number of players beaten. He could win up to €15,000, more than doubling his winnings on Sunday... Let's go!

Sunday baby Sunday…

Debuchy table football
A happy ending for ZUMBA CAFEWW! After the Monster Stack and the Coffee Time, this mid-stakes regular managed to multiply his biggest win on our site by more than eleven after taking down the Sunday Surprise in ahead of over 15,500 other registrations also in search of their "one time". A five-figure cheque that he is likely to remember for a long time, having added €2,474 in bounties to the €7,578 in prize money. In order to immortalise this great moment, he will soon receive a big and beautiful toy at home, worthy of his efforts: a luxury Debuchy table football table from Toulet. Enjoy!

One could almost think that their nickname was created specifically for this Sunday Surprise, a special edition of our tournament with a €150,000 guarantee. Yes, not only has our winner, "Wcerise", cashed a hefty cheque for €11,814, but they will certainly be seeing this sum inflate in the months to come, as they will be collecting €100 for every goal scored by the closest Ligue 1 Uber EATS team to their home, and this until the end of the 2020/21 season! What's more, the OM supporter, who lives in Tignes, is rather lucky, as Olympique Lyonnais are the team located closest to their home (165 kilometres exactly, as the crow flies). With 26 days yet to go in the L1, it is easy to imagine the prize money that Wcerise will receive at the end of the championship... We know someone who might be cheering for two teams at once this season!

Two for none consoles…

Sunday 22/11/2020


Playstation
Is it the global stock-outs, the call for these state-of-the-art technological gems, the wild hope that you can afford both the PlayStation 5 AND the Xbox Series X (each with two controllers and five games to choose from) for a measly €10 or just a little bit of all that? In any case, this week's Sunday Sunday Surprise managed to draw in a very large crowd for a classic version of our weekly tournament, with a prizepool that managed to surpass the €130,000 mark. Amid this cluster of players, our glorious victor Luismi17 emerged triumphantly. His previous biggest score was €200, so it's even more impressive that he reached the famous five-figure milestone, thanks to €3,279 in bounties, in addition to the €7,475 prize money. Enough for a hefty bottle of champagne for future gaming nights at home!

Twice the pleasure

Sunday 15/11/2020


MTT
Someone must be rubbing his hands... Indeed, after winning over €10,000 (€7,655 + €2,627 in bounties) for a buy-in of only €10 is a fantastic return on investment. However, this could pale in comparison to the return awaiting Mit 315 this week: all his winnings on MTTs before midnight on Sunday will be doubled! Yes, there's plenty of motivation to grind like crazy to reach the money as much as possible, hoping for victories that will be twice as lucrative... Wouldn't it be the time to go up a level by trying their luck on our high-stakes tournaments and investing this freshly-pocketed €10,282? In any case, we wish him all the luck in the world at our tables this week after Friday 13th!

Bite the apple…

Sunday 08/11/2020


Apple
It is a well known fact that in the world of high technology, some famous brands are not always unanimously loved, and this is the case for the famous fruity brand. However, if the winner of this weekend's Sunday Surprise was part of the "anti-fruit clan", he might as well turn 180° and change sides: El_Pinchon wins a package including four of the latest technology jewels marketed by the brand dear to Steve Jobs! He will now be equipped with a state-of-the-art cell phone, a top-of-the-range tablet, an ultra-connected watch and headphones allowing him to enter a new world without being disturbed. What's more, if our geek still wants to complete his arsenal, he can still use the €14,020 he bagged for his victory ... It seems one person can at least spend his confinement comfortably in front of his screens.

Singin' in the rain…

Sunday 01/11/2020


Winamax
This special Sunday Surprise played in Mass Start format for the Winamax Pokus will certainly go down in history, as a flood of players caused a real tsunami on the tournament's record prize money: €233,676. The winner, Sergerosso, is now hoping that another record will be broken in the next 365 days: the number of rainy days in his region. Why, you ask? Simply because he will win €50 cash for each rainy day counted by the weather station nearest to his home! What's more, his home is in Finland, in Kerava (on the outskirts of the capital Helsinki), a place known for its mild temperatures and not necessarily abundant rainfall. It seems someone is going to spend the year with his eyes glued to the sky, and not just looking for the northern lights. Let the rain come...

The Sunday-night killer…

Sunday 25/10/2020


Winamax
This week's Sunday Surprise winner had to be tenacious in order to take down the tournament, as the event brought an army of players to the start line: Elmomo627 had his work cut out for him, winning the race to the €6,155 first place prize, embellished with €3,448 in bounties. More importantly though, our champion has been rewarded with the chance to keep demolishing his opponents in the next 52 editions of our Sunday Surprise! That's a total of €520 in buy-ins, but that's not all: throughout this year of freerolls, our serial killer will be credited with €50 for every opponent he knocks out! Elmomo627 has all the ammunition he needs to spice up his Sundays for a whole year...

Just because you're sitting at the top doesn't mean you have to rest on your laurels: Tom.p971 proved that to us with the latest Sunday Surprise, after taking down the tournament one year after reaching the final table! For his back-to-back final table, our winner had to whittle through a field of 10,000 buy-ins. In addition to his hefty winnings of €8,334 (including €2,784 in bounties), Tom.p971 also won a top-of-the-range camera with all the accessories he'll need to become an ace photographer! 3... 2... 1... CHEESE!

It's a common occurrence on the WInamax platform: adepts at fast game, Expresso regulars, decide to try their luck in a long-haul tournament during their session. That's what happened to Legostino88 this Sunday. Result? After grinding it out for multiple hours, he took the trophy along with a hefty €8,687 cash prize, in addition to a prize that could make itself heard: a deck/speakers/amplifiers combo to transform his living-room into a real auditorium. We have no idea if our winner let out a victory scream in the middle of the night to celebrate his title, but his neighbours might be hearing the walls tremble anytime soon...

A bike that takes you nowhere…

Is it a bird, is it a plane, is it Guillaume Diaz? Nope, it's Volatilt38! Having already taken down the Saloon, the Last Longer, the Tornado or even the Nitro this year, this happy bird has flown to altitudes never seen before, far above the 10,300 other entrants of this new "6-max KO" format Sunday Surprise. A high-flying performance which allowed him to pocket a hefty €7,829, including €2,655 in bounties in addition to a high-quality exercise bike, to become the Julian Alaphilippe of your living room. Just remember not to lift your arms before the finish line...

Sunday Surprise: your personal cinema…

Sunday 27/09/2020


personal cinema
One thing is for sure: Yelen has no choice but to become a cinema aficionado, if that isn't already the case. Why, you ask? Well, because, in addition to a hefty €10,905 cheque for his first-place finish, this week's lucky winner will be transforming his living-room into a cinema, as he bagged a 4K top-of-the-range home cinema projector, along with a projection screen. In any case, Yelen will be the centre of attention for his friends for confinement-friendly entertainment.

Sunday Surprise: become one with the big cats

Sunday 20/09/2020

We hope that oddsbust loves animals. Or at the very least, if it isn't already the case, we're pretty sure he'll be changing his mind very soon. In addition to a hefty €10,931 cheque, this week's Surprise champion will be able to live the dream of many: taking care of big cats for close to two weeks within a huge animal sanctuary in South Africa. Amongst all the purrs, it could be very easy to forget the visit to Cape Town included in the package, including a tour of the region and its surroundings. This should suffice to make you roar of happiness!

Sunday Surprise: your very own arcade machine…

Sunday 13/09/2020

Kukurokos did well to put a coin in the Sunday Surprise arcade machine: he managed to stand out from a crowd of 16,600 entrants and in doing so, cashed in for a whopping €8,175, which he embellished with €3,607 in bounties. All that's left for him to do now is make some room at home for his very own Classic Neo Legend arcade machine (and its 10,000 games)!

Sunday Surprise: freeroll the Series…

Sunday 06/09/2020


freeroll
Year after year, the most exciting kick-off tournament for the Winamax Series is ready for action. Thanks to a huge package containing a buy-in to every single event in the Series as the main prize, this week’s Sunday Surprise was ready to spoil it’s winner, to the point of reaching a value of €12,742 for the 196 buy-ins. With 19,159 buy-ins registered along with a €172,431 prizepool, this week’s victor has risen to the top of a very sought-after podium. Remember the name: GTO-fisc can proudly display this trophy and add a hefty €12,961 to his bankroll.

Sunday Surprise: scoot over...

Sunday 30/08/2020


electric scooter
It's not news to us, football fans love poker, and some don’t hesitate to convert themselves once their career is over. BrunoLage recently began his career as Benfica’s trainer for one season, and the player adorning his name on our tables seems to have made the right tactical choices on Sunday: he won the Sunday Surprise Road to 3 Million 100K with a prizepool reaching close to €100,000, including dozens of tickets for the 3 Million Event KO of the Winamax Series. In addition to his first place winnings of €6,376 (including €2,342 in bounties), BrunoLage bagged himself an electric scooter worthy of the Champions League, fully equipped with all the latest technology, and able to reach top speeds of 80km/h! This should cause quite the ruckus among the luxury cars of his future players…

Sunday Surprise: points that could win you big…

Sunday 23/08/2020


betting
The last Sunday Surprise was all about football, but the winner’s geographical location also played an important role. In fact, the value of this week’s Surprise prize depended entirely on the city indicated by the player during their registration: €50 for each point scored by the Ligue 1 team closest to their home address during the season that has just started. After leading an investigation, it seems our happy winner Benjihad comes from… Colmar, in the Haut-Rhin department. Google Maps leaves no trace of doubt: Strasbourg is the closest town with a Ligue 1 football team. Happy coincidence: this Alsatian team will be playing the 2020/2021 season with the red Winamax logo.

Sunday Surprise: a whole season of free bets…

Sunday 16/08/2020


Slovenia
If Brcislav wasn’t already a bettor in his heart, he will quickly be learning a new passion with next football season. This is because before each day of the championship, our winner on Sunday 16th August will be receiving 10 free bets worth €10 each to place as he wishes. Assuring safe wins with odds of 1.10 or trying to get the killer acca in: no one will judge. Even more so due to the fact that he has nothing to prove, after getting the best of a field of 10,000 entrants. This exploit ensured a €5,363 payday, including €1,500 in bounties. We wish our winner just as much success in his betting!

Sunday Surprise: Brother bears in Slovenia

Sunday 09/08/2020


Slovenia
B0untyHunter’s work was cut out for him on Sunday 9th August in the Road to 3 Million 100k Sunday Surprise, which registered a total of 10,000 buy-ins at €10 each. He searched long and hard for the ideal candidate, before coming to the conclusion that the best candidate for victory would be… himself. As a result, he won the event, which went on for a whopping 7 hours, and the right to have a relaxing holiday in Slovenia, which he’ll be able to visit from end to end accompanied by the person of his choice, with a packed schedule including meeting the local bears and a activity 700m deep… just like his opponents. B0untyHunter also nabbed a €125 ticket for the next Winamax Series 3 Million Event KO, and €6,512 added to his bankroll (including €292 in bounties). Enjoy!

Sunday Surprise: follow in the footsteps of Harry Potter

Sunday 02/08/2020


Harry Potter
It took him over six hours, but julio0413 eventually reunited all the Horcruxes and triumphed over all his evil opponents, using his array of spells. In addition to € 9,137 coins to be placed at Gringotts, the best wizard of this Sunday offered himself an enchanting trip for two people in the city which served as the number 1 source of inspiration for Harry Potter: Edinburgh. Once in the Scottish capital, he can even drink some good local whiskey on the disturbing grave of Lord Voldemort ...

Sunday Surprise: taste the Scandinavian joy...

Sunday 26/07/2020


Scandinavian
Be-bop-a-Lula she's my baby. Be-bop-a-Lula I don't mean maybe. We can imagine this being B-BOP 305’s victory chant after taking down this week’s Sunday Surprise. Our winner took down a huge field of 7,200 opponents, all striving to get the same prize: a one-week trip to Sweden and Denmark for a journey filled with culinary delights and big thrills. This was a legendary performance, with our winner whacking out all the moves on our felt, until close to 3am! It was worth it in the end though, as B-BOP 305 pocketed a hefty cheque of €9,433 and two express tickets to Scandinavia. Skål!

Sunday Surprise: a Sicilian romance...

Sunday 19/07/2020


Sicilia
Reitmaier had no need for sales to grab las weekend’s best deal: in exchange for a €10 buy-in, he gifted himself a trip to Sicily with all expenses paid for two people, in addition to a €7,976 cheque. Pretty good deal right? The ex-winner of our Fièvre tournament will be able to explore the charming streets of Palermo under the Italian sun, in a luxury hotel where he will be able to recover from his escapades thanks to a 4-star spa. Life is good!

Sunday Surprise: kick up your feet in Crete...

Sunday 12/07/2020


Crete
Crete: beaches, sun and plenty of relaxing! If there’s one ideal place for a change of scenery, it’s on this idyllic island and, as usual, the Sunday Surprise is here to make changes of scenery a reality. This week’s lucky winner, manuso815, pockets a whopping €10,542 after taking down a field of 7,842 buy-ins, and will be heading to this magnificent Greek island, accompanied by the person of their choice.

Sunday Surprise: what do you want for our birthday?

Sunday 05/07/2020


Birthday
10 years of our Sunday Surprise is worth celebrating! In order to mark the occasion and to get you to take part in one of our emblematic tournaments’ birthday, we let you the people choose the Sunday prize from a selection of the best in the history of the event: three star restaurants, a journey to space, a bronze bust (and we’re leaving out some of the best)… we couldn’t make our mind up to vote last week…

Finally, it always comes round to our favourite game: all you poker fans out there are clearly nostalgic about the World Championships (which were supposed to be taking place right now in Vegas) as your ultimate vote went to a trip for two people to Sin City to play two WSOP tournaments! The trip for 6 people to a deserted island wasn’t able to keep up in the end (after beating “your weight in €1 coins” in the semis), just like the gold ingot in the previous round. Just for the cherry on our winner’s cake, in addition to his prize trip to Nevada (as soon as the WSOP officially announce their next edition), our grand winner -PASQUA- was able to cash in a whopping €11,000 for his victory. Well, well… isn’t that just a couple of hundred dollars from being the price of a Main Event buy-in?

Sunday Surprise: Porto, Douro, vinho...

Sunday 28/06/2020


Porto
After battling it out until after 3am, we hope that envie2KK wasn’t too tired for work the next day. However, our winner can certainly rejoice with his €10,078 bankroll boost after taking down 7,600 opponents. We can imagine his thoughts will now be turned to Portugal, where he will be flying off to soon with the person of his choice for a road trip in the sumptuous valley of Douro, between Porto and Lisbon, with a glass of local wine in one hand, and a pastel de nata in the other.

Sunday Surprise: flyboard me to the moon…

Sunday 21/06/2020


flyboard
It seems HomoErectus is on an insane heater, after taking down the Grand Tournament, quickly followed by a final table finish in the 3 Million Week. This player proved to us all on Sunday evening that he could also shine on the first day of summer. This player managed to climb to the top of the ladder on a radically different tournament to the two mentioned earlier, taking down a slightly overlayed Sunday Surprise for €10,724. They’ll be able to enjoy a flyboarding session during their one-week trip to Arcachon Bay. Have fun!

Sunday Surprise: cruise to victory…

Sunday 07/06/2020


victory
One week away on a barge sailing along the Canal du Midi for six mates. Let’s keep it real: after many long months in confinement at home, that sounds like paradise. Unfortunately, there can only be one winner who enjoys all the Sunday Surprise prize has to offer, and this week that person is Anais Bergue. We’re sure our winner will be making it rain thanks to their hefty €12,156 prize won alongside their 6-person cruise. Have fun!

Sunday Surprise: on the way to Saint-Tropez…

Sunday 07/06/2020


Saint-Tropez
After battling it out with his 15,000 opponents, JCJ2512 emerged victorious from this week’s edition of the Sunday Surprise. He pockets €10,918 in cash – but we all know that’s never the end of it with our most surprising of tournaments! Indeed, our winner has bagged himself a holiday for he and 5 of his mates in a sumptuous villa with private swimming pool in sunny Saint-Tropez!

Sunday Surprise: your personal chef...

Sunday 31/05/2020


Cook
After taking down this week’s runner-up (Abs90, €8,808), Braquage95 lifted the trophy of this week’s edition of the Sunday Surprise, adding a massive €12,010 to his bankroll. Not only this, but after his bank, it’s his stomach’s turn to get stuffed! Our winner and 4 of his mates will be able to dine with a personal chef bringing ingredients, cooking and serving the meal. Bon appétit!

Sunday Surprise: a gift from the skies...

Sunday 24/05/2020


hot
rincevent91 was our grand winner for a very special edition of the Sunday Surprise. He takes a hefty €11,856 prize after taking on one of our big regs, RobinDesNOiX (runner-up for €8,763). However, not only did our winner pocket the lion’s share of the prizepool, but he will also be getting €50 for every time the temperature in his region surpasses 30°C! Get your heat on.

Sunday Surprise: pedal to victory…

Sunday 17/05/2020


Epsilon Prestige
This week’s Sunday Surprise winner might have difficulty cycling all the way back to his favourite country, but Hawaii 5-0 will still be able to enjoy his brand new electric bike. Maybe he can take advantage of his new means of transport and use it to deposit the €13,274 he won straight to the bank!

Sunday Surprise: eat, pray, pool…

Sunday 10/05/2020


Epsilon Prestige
We would call it a century in snooker, even a 147 break, the maximum amount of points a player can score in one frame. Canser-bero will be able to practice his skills to try and achieve these scores thanks to his Sunday Surprise gift: a brand new pool table, which can be converted to a dinner table, in addition to a hefty €16,385 cheque.

Sunday Surprise: the sound of music…

Sunday 03/05/2020


Epsilon Prestige
He tried to warn us: iGotBullets had reloaded his magazine for this week’s edition of the Sunday Surprise, taking down thousands of opponents in the process. Not only did this soldier walk away with €16,560 added to his bankroll, but he also bagged a snazzy new Epsilon Prestige speaker set, which should suffice to get the whole neighbourhood headbanging before the end of the confinement.

Sunday Surprise: a gourmet dream…

Sunday 26/04/2020


Fauchon
If you weren’t sure where to celebrate the end of the confinement, fear not: tizist has got your back! Not only has this lucky player pocketed a hefty cheque of €15,197 by dominating a field of 12,300 opponents, but he also bagged a… no THE Fauchon trunk of dreams! This trunk contains enough bottles and food to keep the party going. We’re just waiting for our invitation now…

Sunday Surprise: a handful of love…

Sunday 19/04/2020


Tag Heuer
Who aid black cats only bring bad luck ? Seems ElGatoNegr07 put superstition to one side with this week’s Sunday Surprise, after taking down our weekly tournament and getting the best of his 11,400 opponents, pocketing a hefty €14,587 cheque in the process. Maybe this high stakes Expresso reg decided to make the switch to an MTT when he saw the prize of the week: a connected Tag Heuer limited edition watch, which he’ll be able to show off to his posse.

Sunday Surprise: diamonds are forever…

Sunday 12/04/2020


diamond
Let us welcome ELOYSIEN to the most exclusive club on Winamax : the Red Diamond VIP status club. Whereas all the other member had to work hard for months in order to obtain this prestigious status, this player managed to acquire it in 7 hours 8 minutes and not one minute more. Throughout the next 12 months, ELOYSIEN will accumulate Miles in gear 5 (x6 compared to the standard VIP status), with bonus prizes to be won, huge monthly freerolls and free entry to all Winamax live Main Events.

Sunday Surprise: your key to the Winamax Series

Sunday 05/04/2020


Winamax Series
Sw33tTh1ng took a slice of sweet pie this Sunday: he won the first Sunday Surprise of the festival, which wins him no less than €11,964. A sum almost identical to the value of the Sunday Surprise prize: our happy winner will be receiving tickets for every single event of this 27th edition of the Winamax Series, a package worth €12,000! No need to deny it: Sw33tTh1ng, a new addition to our poker room (he played his first tournament in March), will be a regular at our tables over the next 10 days.

650 horsepower of pure joy…

Sunday 15/03/2020


Formula 1
As the start of Formula 1 season is being re-scheduled to an unknown date, kombz44 went ahead and tried to find another way of entertaining himself… by taking down our Sunday Surprise! According to the latest news, it seems like our winner could be making laps around the Barcelona-Cataluña circuit around 30th June or 1st July, driving a real F1 car. If he really enjoys the experience, maybe he could buy one tire or a small piece of the steering wheel thanks to his €9,790 cash prize, including €2,785 in bounties!

Geek is the new chic!

Sunday 08/03/2020


Geek
And to say this week’s winner hadn’t even started grinding tournaments in 2020 prior to this… For his very first MTT session since 2019, Pik & Crok decided to go all out, and took down the Sunday Surprise! In addition to his €12,388 cheque for first place, our winner, who had never surpassed €500 in winnings on Winamax, also won a gift which should incite him to take a seat at our tables more often: a top-of-the-range PC gamer setup including a gamer PC + all the latest accessories for a successful grinding session (and much more!). We’re ready to bet that we won’t see 2021 before seeing him try his luck again.

Treasure hunt in Marrakech...

Sunday 01/03/2020


Marrakech
casserlanoix has chosen to double the challenge for himself with this week’s Sunday Surprise. Luckily for him, he has already succeeded in conquering the hardest part – winning our most Surprising of tournaments this Sunday, against a field of 8,700 opponents. Now that he has grabbed the holy grail of €11,415, we have a second quest prepared for him, in the South of Marrakech, at the gates of the Sahara. After enjoying two nights with the person of their choosing in the sumptuous Es Saadi palace, they will be summoned for a real treasure hunt in the desert. To be won: no more, no less than a buy-in for the next Winamax SISMIX Costa Brava at Lloret de Mar!

Fjords under the midnight sun…

Sunday 23/02/2020


Fjords
When you hear the word Norway, you can imagine all kinds of dreamy landscapes, but also some expensive costs. However, if we were to tell you it was possible to have a road trip along the Norwegian fjords with a train ride on the famous Flåmsbana line through the mountains, all with €9,979 spending money in pocket, that would sound a lot more appealing would it not? Luckily for Lucie1602, that’s exactly what she got, thanks to last week’s edition of the Sunday Surprise!

Hot air balloons and champagne…

Sunday 16/02/2020


champagne
He cleaned up his opponents like a champ ! R.Carlos.6 could not have had a better aim last Sunday, as he hit the two targets everybody was chasing : the €12,171 prize and, more importantly, this week’s gift. R.Carlos.6 will be able to bring his five best mates along with him to enjoy a champagne dinner 800m up in the air, in a hot air balloon over the French countryside!

Chill in Ha Long Bay

Sunday 09/02/2020


Ha Long
We’re not sure how much the Vietnamese love their manga, but they’re probably going to have to get used to it: FullMetalPok will soon be landing in their beautiful country! After finishing in second place of Event #148 of the Winamax Series, this shark took down this week’s Sunday Surprise. After a very worthy re-entry, he managed to cash in a hefty €11,990 pay day, his first five-figure score, after taking down a field of 9,462 registrations.

Jazz it up in New Orleans…

Sunday 02/02/2020


New Orleans

However, to the disappointment of our winner S3v.3n.R3d, the closest stadium to his home was not Camp Nou, but the Cornellà-El Prat.

Circus
The first Surprise Event of the Winamax Circus drew in the crowds: nearly 12,814 entrants have squeezed into the Big Top in hopes of picking up the incredible gift promised to the winner. In the end, it was gouss2001 who won the award, and will fly off to Las Vegas for a week, with the companion of his choice, to experience two performances of the prestigious Cirque du Soleil. He will also be able to try his luck at the Little One for One Drop at $1,111 in the next WSOP. And this pretty icing is offered as a bonus in his cake of €18,004 in winnings. Wonderful!

Sunday 05/11/2017


Vegas
There was consensus among the numerous tournaments on this Sunday for one event with more than 16,500 registrations recorded (including re-entries) for nearly €150,000 in prize money. This, inevitably of course, is the Surprise Event. The one that will likely remain the biggest Winamax Circus tournament after the Main Event fell into the hands of Only1CardPlz. Did he really need only one card to win the €11,081 jackpot, with a €3,040 bonus? In any case, bravo to him: now he’s invited to the 52 next editions of our surprise tournament, where he will win €50 in cash for each elimination achieved. Note also the ninth place of a certain Kitbul, in the Multiplex Poker studio direct. The Genius returned five times to reach the semi-finals of this 6-Max tournament, played exceptionally, leaving with a total of €1,198.

Yapasrienla9 finally won the tournament after six hours at the table and will be off to snowy Canada for a week of fun in January. He also pocketed €5,981. -BLACKFEAR- took home €5,007 in second place, while Winamax regular BV77 excelled by taking home the biggest winnings of the night: €8,500. cedr30 ended with €6,014 and playboy1983 can tan his six-pack all winter long with €7,413 wisely negotiated.

He added another €7,962 to his 2017 total with this second-place finish. A1hoarder completed the podium with €5,978, and Pchiii came in fourth (€4,538).

He will be able to choose his schedule thanks to his passport for 28 varied attractions and will have, just for the cherry on the cake, €9,898 to spend. A fantastic reward for this reg of the big field MTTs, having placed third in Event 60 of the Winamax Series in January 2016 for €11,500 and won the Tie Break last February for €3,770.

Sunday 06/08/2017


football
Having already had a very strong start to 2017, LLinusLLord marks his greatest performance to date that we know of by taking down the Sunday Surprise for €10,086. This regular (with multiple final tables in the Xtase and winner of the Rush Hour and the €50 Monster Stack) will be making the bookmakers tremble in fear this year as he has won himself €100 in free bets to be placed on Ligue 1 Conforama matches for every match day in 2017/2018. This victory came after some negotiation for a deal with one of our regular sharks, Aurimaso, who left €8,089 richer. This player had already appeared on our radars nine months ago by winning the Fièvre for over €9,000 and even won the Xtase just one week ago for €5,500. Finally, Mammouth1991 rounds off the podium and picks up €5,405.

This player will surely be putting his Pokemon to one side in order to go and support his team for a few months.

Oman
A fantastic turnout for our aquatic Sunday Surprise. TerraFormars wins €10,379 and can buy himself a neat pair of flippers. He'll be needing them for his trip to the Gulf of Oman and his diving course in crystal-clear waters. Let's hope that the player from rainy Normandy won't be in shock at the incredibly beautiful weather of Oman. LilSto finishes in second and pockets €7,040, which will easily cover the re-entry he paid. Finally, gab2006 finishes in third for the second time, after coming in third in the Sunday Surprise three years before. He leaves €5,254 richer.

Pilgrimage to the temples of Angkor

Sunday 18/06/2017


Angkor
Judging by his username, MezKal4Life might have preferred a journey to Mexico, but his trip to see the incredible temples of Angkor might persuade him otherwise, and his €9,111 pay day won't hurt too much either. We also had .Gyneco taking home €6,167 for his consultation and a bronze medal for Pucci305 who pocketed €4,588. Finally, we had ENIIGMATIK taking the chocolate medal, along with €3,477.

Sunday 14/05/2017


costume
There were many of you battling it out to win the coveted first prize of a tailored suit this Sunday. Unfortunately, we could have only one winner, with Valentin “Negan_Equity” Messina lifting the trophy. Valentin was also a runner-up in the 2015 EPT in Malta (where he has been living for the last few years) and is now beginning a new adventure on Twitch. He was not streaming when he emerged victorious, but we are hoping for a cat walk when he has received his suit on his next broadcast. With a prizepool of nearly €60,000, Negan_Equity ‘s first place was rewarded with the hefty sum of €10,047. Sabrinaldo1 came in second place, pocketing €6,814.

Mexico
It must have been the terrible weather in early May making everyone dream of sunnier climes: we had a huge turnout for the Mexican Sunday Surprise with a massive guarantee and more than 7,000 players battling it out for a dream week in the Yucatan. The lucky winner was Ad Finem and he can lie down at the pool edge of the 5-star Dreams Tulum Resort & Spa deciding what to spend his €10,771 winnings on, in between visits to the famous Mayan pyramids. It was a lucrative Sunday for the player as earlier on he had finished fourth in the Rally winning €600. The runner-up, Gagiron, can't complain either, having won €7,338 and the Uppercut the day before! The final table also featured kask_urva (3rd, €5,498), coustoulou15 (4th, €4,175) and TAK0NAK0 (5th, €2,851), who also finished sixth in the Sunday Surprise on 5 March.

Even if all he won was the cash prize for finishing first (€10,831, more than a thousand times his initial buy-in), there's no doubt that wapipi would have been ecstatic.
