Don't Miss the Incredible Value in WPT Global's New Sunday Majors
WPT Global, the official online poker site of the World Poker Tour (WPT), launched a trio of Sunday Majors a fortnight ago, and it is safe to say that they are ridiculous value for tournament grinders. Not only do they come with juicy guaranteed prize pools, but the $110 buy-in $50,000 guaranteed Sunday Slam has sported significant overlays during its first two weeks on the site.
"upfast44" took down the inaugural Sunday Slam after it by $20,000! The champion turned their $110 investment into an impressive $15,201, which included $3,737 worth of bounty payments, as the Sunday Slam is an exciting PKO event. With bounties included, nobody at the eight-handed final table took home less than $2,132, which is not a bad day at the office for only a few hours' "work."

Last week, on April 9, the $50,000 Sunday Slam attracted a larger crowd of 398 entries, but that still meant an overlay of more than $10,000. "��ī����" was the main beneficiary of WPT Global making up the prize pool's shortfall because they headed into the night with the title of champion and a cool $11,914 to show for their efforts.
| Place | Player | Bounties | Prize | Total Prize |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | ��ī���� | $2,949 | $8,965 | $11,914 |
| 2 | Jeffrynator | $1,023 | $4,810 | $5,833 |

| 7 | Jejeshark22 | $1,084 | $2,050 | $3,134 |
| 8 | juicyp87 | $541 | $1,227 | $1,768 |
It isn't only the $110 buy-in $50,000 guaranteed Sunday Slam that has WPT Global tournament players tingling with excitement, but the other two Sunday Majors, too. Costing $330 and guaranteeing $20,000 is the Grand Slam, while the Mini Slam may only command an $11 buy-in, but the kind folks at WPT Global have set the guarantee at $8,888! Last weekend's Mini Slam winner padded their WPT Global account with almost $2,200, which for an $11 investment is mightily impressive, to say the least.
Don't forget that if anyone manages to win all three of the aforementioned Sunday Majors within a 30-day period, WPT Global awards them $100,000!
