Now it&#8217;s time to put your skills to the test and see how much of the whopping $500,000 guaranteed prize pool you can get your hands on. It is your time to shine.<\/p>\n<p>Although there are plenty of Days 1s running up to and including August 29, you don&#8217;t want to leave entering the Grand Prix KO Summer Edition Main Event until the last minute. Why? Because you want to <strong>give yourself the best chance of building a massive stack<\/strong> that will be the envy of your foes! If your silky skills help you progress to Day 2, but you aren&#8217;t happy with your stack, simply jump into another Day 1 and try again; there&#8217;s always room for improvement, even when you are already a true balla. Should you navigate your way to Day 2 more than once, only your largest stack goes through.<\/p>\n<p>There are six Grand Prix KO Summer Edition Main Event Day 1s every day, running every couple of hours from 14:30 BST. We know our players love to get their grind on at the weekends, so there is an additional flight at 12:30 BST on Saturday and Sunday. Don&#8217;t overdo the partying on Friday, so you&#8217;re fresh for the weekend battles!<\/p>\n<p>Each Day 1 ends when only <strong>15% of the field remains<\/strong>, with those 15% bagging and tagging only to return to their seats on August 29. The completed Day 1s so far are taking around three hours to conclude, meaning you could easily play a few each night and still get plenty of beauty sleep, not that you need it, you gorgeous people!<\/p>\n<h2>Grand Prix KO Summer Edition Main Events Schedule<\/h2>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<th>Event<\/th>\n<th>Buy-in<\/th>\n<th>Time (BST)<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>#05 Main Event: $500K Gtd<\/td>\n<td>$109<\/td>\n<td>14:30, 16:30, 18:30, 20:30, 22:30, 00:00<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>#06 Mini Main Event: $100K Gtd<\/td>\n<td>$11<\/td>\n<td>12:30, 14:30, 16:30, 18:30, 20:30, 22:30, 00:00<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>Don&#8217;t worry if the $109 buy-in is outside the constraints <a href=\"https:\/\/www.partypoker.com\/en\/how-to-play\/strategy\/betting\/bankroll-management\">of your bankroll<\/a> because there are more satellites than you can shake a stick it, and they run all day long.
