Winamax Series: fill yer coffers!

Ahoy, Me Hearties! Ready to embark on a long and perilous journey? From Sunday 3^rd to Thursday 14^th January, the Winamax Series will weigh anchor for a voyage at sea unlike any other, with 198 stops along the way ranging from €2 to €2,000 and promising a large share of the €20 million in guarantees to the most combative privateers. No need to go searching the ship from bow to stern: it's a record. A unique expedition which, in addition to its inevitable bunch of novelties that are not recommended for those who don't have a seafaring spirit:

• 4 Million Event, straight ahead! In order to celebrate the arrival of the new year, the famous three-masted ship of our flight tournaments is raising its guaranteed prize money by a little more than a million gold coins. Enough to make it the most beautiful galleon in the history of online poker in Europe. It is of course accompanied by its four faithful frigates, the Giant KO (€2), High Five (€5), Million Event KO (€15) and Colossus (€30), together carrying 2.3 million guns.
• Half a million in sight! Between Sunday 3^rd and 10^th January, the Mass Start (€50), Mass Start Championship (€250) and Highroller KO (€1,000) will take the form of treasure hunts promising you a prize of at least €500,000.
• After the Championships, the Super Championship! Just like the Purple, a €500 tournament has slipped into our grid on Thursday 7th January, also promising a prizepool of at least €150,000.

As for the rest, you will be spoiled for choice, with at least 14 treasures to be unearthed every evening in all variations and formats, and something for everyone: from freshwater crewmates to seasoned sailors. No hiding behind the litres of rum swallowed up during the festivities: batten down the hatches, adventure waits for no one!

¹ Day 1s played at 22:30 CET will be played as Semi-Turbos (5 Min per level)
² Only on Sunday
³ Only on Sunday, Monday 11^th and Tuesday 12^th and in Semi-Turbo (5 mins per level)

⁴ Kill the WIP (Winamax Important Person): pocket prizes by eliminating WIPs - €10 for eliminating a Pro, People or Champion, €25 for an elimination in the top 100 and €100 for an elimination on the final table. €50 bonus prize if the player eliminates 2 WIPs and €200 if the player eliminates si le joueur élimine 3+ WIPs.

All flights, except for the Big Omaha, will be played in the Colossus format. In these tournaments, the paid places (12.5% of players paid) are reached on Day 1. Day 1 ends when (approximately) 5% of players remain. These 5% remaining will qualify for Day2.
Therefore, the prizepool shown on Day 1 only applies to players eliminated on Day 1.
Players who qualify for Day 2 will be assured to win at least the biggest prize won by a player eliminated on all Day 1 tournaments.
All remaining prize money remaining at the end of Day 1 and after paying the players who have been eliminated will be rolled on to the prizepool for Day 2.

The Sunday Surprise special prize will be unveiled within the week in which the tournament will take place. You can check our the Sunday Surprise web page on the corresponding date in order to find out the prize given out during the Winamax Series.
