McLaren Turbo Series: +$2.5M GTD at partypoker

Formula 1 and online poker

The best online poker rooms decided long ago to run cross-promotions with other popular sports. Some sites have recruited boxers or DJs as ambassadors, and partypoker partnered with the McLaren Formula 1 Team. Such alliances support unique promotions and events like the next tournament series.

The McLaren Turbo Series will be held at partypoker from July 22 to August 8. The guaranteed prize pool is over $2.5M GTD, and the festival will add F1 merchandise and a trip to Brazil.

All events will be divided into three levels: Low (L), Medium (M), and High (H), and buy-ins will range from $0.55 to $215. As the name hints, all events will be held in turbo or hyper speed; the schedule includes only NLH tournaments, and a big percentage will be played in PKO format.

35% of the festival guarantee will be added to five tournaments, including two main events:

McLaren Turbo Series #01-H Opener KO Day 1: $100K Gtd, Buy-in $50 + $5
McLaren Turbo Series #29-H 7-Max Weekender KO Day 1: $125K Gtd, Buy-in $100 + $9
McLaren Turbo Series #56-H Weekender KO Day 1: $100K Gtd, Buy-in $50 + $5

Satellites are available for the big events, including "MEGA" guaranteeing over 30 entries. On the opening day of the series, $5,000 will be added in a freeroll, and the best five players will get branded merchandise.

There's also an opportunity to win two all-expenses-paid trips for the Brazilian Grand Prix to be held in November 2022; the High Main Event winner will secure one of these tickets.
