CoinPoker Unveils 50k USDT Crypto Giveaway, Medal Events For Global Online Poker Championship 

The crypto market has been going through one of its most turbulent phases since the beginning of the year.

Prices have remained mostly in the red, hype has faded, and many projects from the previous bull run have disappeared.

Unsurprisingly, this trend has prompted many retail crypto participants to turn their diamond hands into poker hands, especially on tournament-oriented online platforms such as CoinPoker.

Unlike most of its competitors, this crypto poker room runs a major tournament schedule year-round, which has been crucial in keeping its community engaged and rewarded.

Earlier this month, for example, it wrapped up the Battle of Malta Online Series, where more than $30 million in crypto prizes, unique trophies, as well as 100 all-expenses paid Battle of Malta Autumn Edition packages were distributed to players.

Before this, CoinPoker paid out $48 million in total cash prizes through its three-week-long World Poker Masters, awarded a $25,000 Triton Jeju package, and introduced CoinRewards, which delivers $7 million in monthly rewards to players.

So it’s hardly surprising that game traffic on the site has remained relatively high over the past couple of months.

Now, CoinPoker is pushing ahead with the unveiling of its biggest tournament in history: The Global Online Poker Championship (GOPC).

It’s going to be a six-week festival, running from August 23 through September 28, and featuring a $50,000,000 guarantee, 700-plus medal events, tiered Main Events, and more.

The full schedule is not out yet, but early teasers indicate plans to integrate events into prime-time windows in Europe, Asia, and Latin America, so that players in each region can take part at more convenient hours.

The scale of the prize pool is now the talk of the crypto poker town, with many describing it as a rare opportunity to chase down six-figure payouts.

CoinPoker’s $50M GOPC Set to Transform Crypto Poker Into a Medal Sport

Following a record-breaking run at the Battle of Malta Online Series, CoinPoker is gearing up for its next major festival dubbed the Global Online Poker Championship.

This series is structured to be not only the biggest tournament in its history, but also the most accessible to its global player base.

Per the announcement, the championship will feature three regional schedules and three buy-in tiers, opening the door for more players to compete during their local primetime and at stakes that suit their bankrolls.

A record-breaking $50,000,000 overall guarantee adds to its appeal, helping explain the buzz the championship has generated since its unveiling.

That being said, there will be more than 700 events on the schedule, each offering different buy-in tiers and structured to award Olympic-style medals to their respective top three performers.

Champions emerging from these events, for example, will receive Gold medals in both physical form and digitally in their CoinPoker Trophy Cabinet, giving them a lasting symbol of prestige and recognition.

The second and third finishers, on the other hand, will receive Silver and Bronze medals, respectively.

And beyond the guarantees tied to each event, additional rewards are also planned, though details remain sketchy for now.

It is therefore easy to see why CoinPoker ambassador Mario Mösbock predicted on X that the championship will be the “hands down best online poker experience.”

Players can better position themselves to capitalize on the championship by joining the 3-Bet Club Waitlist ahead of its rollout on August 17.

This premium membership program is designed to regularly provide members with reward boosts, action multipliers, tournament discounts, power ups, and more.

Notable GOPC Events to Look Out For

Three-Tier Main Events

CoinPoker has structured the championship around three Main Events, one per bankroll tier, with every tier awarding its own medals and payouts. They include:

$3,000,000 Main Event

Leading the lineup is the $3,000,000 Main Event, tied to a $530 buy-in, tailored to tournament specialists and wealthy amateurs comfortable competing at the upper end of the series.

This event embraces a multi-flight structure, with Day 1 flights available mostly on Sundays. Players will also find three additional Day 1 flights on other days, each tailored to different time zones.

Day 2 is billed to hold on September 28th at 17:30 UTC.

$1,000,000 Global Main

Next is the $1,000,000 Global Main, featuring a $55 buy-in, perfect for mid-stakes grinders.

Unlike the $3,000,000 Main Event, it offers daily flights, providing more than enough opportunity for players to qualify for Day 2.

Day 2 will unfold on September 21, for a final push toward the title and a share of the prize pool.

$250,000 Mini Main

Last on the lineup is the $250,000 Mini Main, carrying an $11 buy-in. It runs daily flights as well, and Day 2 will take place on the same day as the $1,000,000 Global Main.

$1,000,000 CoinMillion GOPC Edition

CoinMillion is undoubtedly one of the most coveted events on CoinPoker today, as evidenced by the number of entries recorded in its inaugural outing at the World Poker Masters and subsequent run in the Battle of Malta Online Series.

During the World Poker Masters, for example, it recorded 4,278 entries, with DaniC1994 emerging as the maiden champion.

The second edition achieved even more entries, around 4,700, and was won by monc after a dramatic, hard-fought battle.

Following this edition, CoinPoker decided to turn the event into a monthly fixture.

The August edition went live last Sunday, after smashing the cap of 4,000 entries before the end of late registration.

PuraSuerte69 battled through the tournament to emerge as the latest CoinMillion champion, collecting $80,741.

He, alongside the remaining final two players (ImpinadordeKombi and KingTurnJester) initially agreed to a deal before playing on for the trophy.

Coincidentally, the next edition will be absorbed into the GOPC schedule, adding extra value for participants.
