Satellites to $5M GTD The Venom PKO starting on October 2

Heading to a new record?

After the fourth Venom PKO, Winning Poker Network was able to smash the guaranteed prize pool; hence it's only natural that the organizers decided to keep the structure that finally worked in the past.

In the fall of 2022, The Venom PKO will guarantee $5,000,000 across four starting flights:

Day 1A - October 20
Day 1B - October 23
Day 1C - October 27
Day 1D - October 30

All flights start around the middle of the day in America. The final table will be played on November 2, streamed live on Twitch. To draw more players, the satellite grid was updated.

Venom Fever

Thanks to this promotion, The Venom was able to set records last time. This time the WPN team made a bet on the satellite grid.

Direct Venom Fever satellites will run from October 2 to 30.

The satellite campaign has been increased to 4 weeks. The total number of tournaments is 297
More than 1,000 tickets will be raffled, which is at least 297 more tickets than the last Venom PKO
The buy-in range remained the same (from $32 to $290), but the average buy-in dropped by $3 to around $68

The largest satellites within this promo are:

Beast & SnC Venom MEGA, 20 x $2,650 Seats GTD — $95 buy-in (for the winners of the leaderboards, the entry is free) every Sunday
