GGPoker's $18M October Giveaway: Leaderboards, Cash Drops & Halloween Party
Top UK poker room GGPoker has announced a prize-packed $18M October Giveaway, running all month long. From 1 to 31 October, existing players and those who join the site during the promotional period can expect busy days full of rewards. Rather than a single headline offer, the operator has prepared a series of overlapping campaigns across cash games, bounty tournaments and GGPoker’s signature formats.
But wait, there’s more! Fittingly for the season, the campaign ends with a Halloween something that hinges on a single card.
What's Inside the $18M October Giveaway
GGPoker has scheduled several unmissable promotions within this month’s Giveaway:
- $13M October Cash Game Giveaway – 1 to 31 October
- $2M Bounty Hunters Series Cash Drop – 2 to 23 October
- $1M Bounty Hunters Series Daily Leaderboard – 4 to 27 October (opt-in for UK players required)
- $400K APT Online Leaderboard – 11 October to 2 November
- $1M Halloween Party – 24 to 31 October
Massive $13M October Cash Game Giveaway
The bulk of the prize money comes from the Cash Game Giveaway – $13M up for grabs. They split the total giveaway prize pool across GG Signature Promotions ($3,000,000), tournament promos such as WSOP Express tickets and the $100K Weekly Freeroll ($1,000,000), newcomer bonuses ($2,200,000), and cash-game leaderboards ($7,500,000). In better news, the leaderboard competitions cover every format available in GGPoker’s lobby:
- regular Hold’em and Omaha
- Short Deck
- Spin & Gold
- All-In or Fold
- Rush & Cash
- Flip & Go
- Mystery Battle Royale
This way, GGPoker takes care of every preference – nobody is left behind this October. Traditionally, every hand you play at the mentioned tables counts toward your leaderboard progress.
$2M Bounty Hunters Series Cash Drop: Big Pots, Extra Chips
How does the $2M Bounty Hunters Series Cash Drop work? This promo rewards Flipout chips for memorable hands, not raw volume. This means winning qualifying pots:
- 10BB or more in AoF Omaha
- 16BB or more in AoF Hold'em
- 50BB or more in Hold'em, PLO, Rush & Cash or Short Deck
Flipout tournaments run every three hours, and each chip a player wins adds to their starting stack in the race for a share of the $2 million.
Trick or Treat: $1M Halloween Party
The final week of the calendar brings GGpoker users the $1M Halloween Party. Every time a punter faces a Jack of Spades at Hold’em, PLO (incl. PLO-5 and PLO-6), Short Deck, AoF, or Rush & Cash tables, they get special Candy on their record. The qualifying card may be dealt as a pocket card or be part of the board – in this case, the player must be after the pot.
Ten such Candies unlock a Mystery Pumpkin worth up to $1,000, and the more Candies traded in, the better the odds of a more impressive prize. Note that Halloween Party rewards are untransferable as paid in C$, and that tournaments, Flip & Go, Spin & Gold, and Mystery Battle Royale formats do not count.
Who Benefits Most
Since leaderboards, Flipout tickets and Halloween Candies all stack on top of the same sessions, regular cash game players will obviously benefit from the October Giveaway on GGPoker. So will fans of the Bounty Hunters Series, thanks to the $1M daily leaderboard driven by knockouts. And the Halloween Party will also be a perfect match for recreational players. New players who register with GGPoker can first take advantage of a welcome pack worth up to $600 before they join the huge Giveaway and its promos.
