Low-Tier Value Events ($11 to $32)

Happy New Year Final Day - January 5 | 18:00 UTC | $11 Buy-In | Add-On $50K
This event sits at the lowest entry point in the highlight group. The field size lifts total return volume. The $50K add-on stabilizes value despite wider participation.

Omaholic Bounty Final Day - January 19 | 18:00 UTC | $32 Buy-In | Add-On $25K
This event offers a structured Omaha bounty path. Pot-size variance creates movement in stack distribution. The $25K add-on boosts the total reward layer for mid-low entries.

Mid-Tier Value Events ($50 to $88)

Winter is Coming 6-Max Final Day - December 15 | 18:00 UTC | $50 Buy-In | Add-On $50K
Six-max play raises hand frequency. The equal buy-in and add-on figures keep value balanced. Short-handed fields often reward players with strong positional control.

Lucky Fortune Mystery Bounty Day 2 - January 12 | 18:00 UTC | $54 Buy-in | Add-On $150K
This event carries the highest add-on in the schedule. Day 2 format concentrates field equity. Mystery rewards add an isolated payout structure.

Upper-Mid Tier Value Events ($100 to $125)

Omaholic Mystery Ball Final Day - December 29 | 18:00 UTC | $125 Buy-In | Add-On $50K
Omaha mechanics move equity faster. Mystery selections produce a split-value return. The $50K add-on supports the payout system.

Entry-Level Bounty Tier ($25)

Santa’s Sled Bounty Turbo Final Stage - December 22 | 18:00 UTC | $25 Buy-In | Add-On $100K
This event offers a high add-on relative to its cost. Turbo play widens outcome swings. Bounty fields allow players to extract value early.

High-Tier Value Event ($250)

Winter Giveaway Grand Finale Day 2 - January 26 | 18:00 UTC | $250 Buy-In | Add-On $250K
This event anchors the series. The $250K add-on sets the peak payout frame. Day 2 structure reduces field volatility and prioritizes post-flop control.
