CoinPoker Winter Festival: $10M GTD, Three Stages, and a Month-Long Heater to Close the Year

Article cover

The story starts with Stage 1, the Holiday Turbo Mini Series (Dec 26–30): five days of fast structures where players can choose from 36 turbo events per day, split into Low, Medium, and High buy-in tiers, across No-Limit Hold’em and Pot-Limit Omaha. Low tier runs $5/$8/$10/$15, Medium tier runs $22/$25/$35/$50/$75, and High tier runs $88/$100/$150/$200/$250/$500 — pure pick-your-poison volume. And here’s the twist: play three events in the same tier and you automatically qualify for next-day “Second Chance Flipouts” at 12:00 PM UTC, where everyone is automatically all-in and prizes (tickets) are paid out after the flipout resolves. It’s a sneaky, high-EV safety valve that rewards consistency without forcing you to chase a single flagship.

Stage 2, Fresh Start Week (Dec 31–Jan 7), is all about getting the whole field armed with ammunition for the finale. CoinPoker runs Mega Satellites designed to feed the Winter Masters, with $30,000 worth of Winter Masters tickets added to Mega Satellites, plus $20,000 worth of Winter Masters tickets spread across special New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day events. Those NYE/NYD events (and the Mega Satellites) run at 13:05, 18:05, and 21:05 UTC, with Mega Satellites listed as three satellites per start time — basically, a seven-day ticket factory if you keep showing up. 

Then Stage 3 arrives: the Winter Masters Series (Jan 8–26), CoinPoker’s crown jewel run with $8,000,000 in guarantees, daily action from 11:00 to 22:00 UTC, boosted CoinMasters BITCOIN Sundays, leaderboards, and more “second-chance” value. The whole month crescendos into three Main Events on Jan 25 at 18:05 UTC: a $15 Main Event ($20,000 GTD), a $75 Main Event ($75,000 GTD), and a $500 Main Event ($250,000 GTD). On top of that, there’s a $100,000 leaderboard split by buy-in tiers (Low/Medium/High) using your best 10 results, plus more Second Chance Flipouts that pay cash — so your run doesn’t have to be perfect to be profitable.

What makes this festival such a clean “yes” is the pacing. Stage 1 lets you fire fast and often, Stage 2 hands you a ticket pipeline right when everyone’s hyped for New Year’s, and Stage 3 turns that momentum into real championship pressure with leaderboard upside that rewards performance over pure volume. It’s not just “more tournaments”; it’s a month-long ladder where every week feeds the next.

And because CoinPoker bakes in satellites, tickets, and flipouts, it feels like the room is actively trying to get more players into the biggest moments, which is exactly when overlays disappear and prize pools start to roar. A three-act festival with $10M GTD, turbo volume up front, ticket farming through New Year’s, and a Winter Masters finish with three Main Events - this is the kind of schedule that turns one good week into a full-season score. Join and start firing now!
