partypoker continues bringing players high-quality, affordable poker tournaments with the 2022 Grand Prix UK series. Grand Prix UK features a trio of exciting tournaments hosted online at partypoker and live at the home of British poker, Dusk Till Dawn.
The first two events of the Grand Prix UK series take place exclusively online. There is the $55 buy-in Warm Up and its $150,000 guaranteed prize pool, and the $11 buy-in Mini Warm Up that comes with an impressive $50,000 guarantee.
A £150 buy-in £150,000 guaranteed Main Event is the schedule’s crown jewel. The Main Event has a handful of online and live starting flights, with the tournament concluding and crowning its worthy champion in a live setting.
2022 Grand Prix UK Overview
| Dates | Event | Buy-in | Guarantee |
|---|---|---|---|
| May 8-16 | GPUK #01 Warm Up | $55 | $150,000 |
| May 8-16 | GPUK #02 Mini Warm Up | $11 | $50,000 |
| May 15-22 | GPUK #03 Main Event | £150 | £150,000 |
GPUK #01 Warm Up: $150,000 Guaranteed
The $150,000 guaranteed GPUK #01 Warm Up takes place online at partypoker from May 8 through May 16. There are three flights on each day, giving you plenty of opportunities to become this six-max event’s champion.
You receive 100,000 chips for your $55 investment. Blinds start at 500/1,000/100a and increase every ten minutes unless you enter one of the two turbo-structured flights on May 16 which have a five-minute clock.
Late registration remains open until the end of the tenth level, at which point the blinds and antes weigh in at 1,750/3,500/450a. One re-entry is permitted on each flight while late registration is open.
Each of the Warm Up’s Day 1s conclude when only 15% of the field remains. Those top 15% progress to Day 2 on May 16 at 20:30 BST in the money.
GPUK #02 Mini Warm Up: $50,000 Guaranteed
The GPUK #02 Mini Warm Up is a carbon copy of its $55 buy-in bigger brother except it only costs $11 to enter and features a $50,000 guarantee on its prize pool. The fantastic blind structure is exactly the same as the higher buy-in event meaning you do not miss out on quality just because you are not playing for higher stakes.
GPUK #03 Main Event: £150,000 Guaranteed
The GPUK #03 Main Event is a £150 buy-in eight-handed tournament boasting of a £150,000 guaranteed prize pool. This tournament is a hybrid affair, which means it has both online and live Day 1s before crowning its champion at Dusk Till Dawn.
Online Day 1s shuffle up and deal at 20:05 BST on May 15 through May 18. The online Main Event sees you sit down with a generous 100,000-chip starting stack and play to a ten-minute clock where blinds start at only 250/500/65a. One re-entry per flight is permitted while late registration is open, which is until the end of the tenth level.
Like the Warm Up and Mini Warm Up, the Main Event Day 1s end when only 15% of the field has chips in front of them. Anyone with a single chip in their stack progresses to the Live Day 2 at Dusk Till Dawn at 14:00 BST on May 22, doing so with a min-cash to show for their efforts.
Those of you who prefer live poker can get involved in the GPUK #03 Main Event at DTD. Day 1s run daily from May 19 through May 21. Buy in at the club’s cashier desk, or reserve your seat with your partypoker account balance by buying into one of the holding tanks in the Grand Prix lobby, or by using LuxonPay to purchase your seat.
