$50M GTD? COINPOKER PAID $88.4M

CoinPoker’s first Global Online Poker Championship is in the books, and the final numbers are pretty difficult to ignore. The $50M series guarantee ended up producing $88.4 million in prize money, with more than 2.1 million entries from 48,815 unique players.

Across the festival, CoinPoker ran 6,231 tournaments and dealt more than 18.8 million hands. The biggest single day saw $7.79 million awarded, while the series handed out 2,004 gold medals and 6,012 medals in total.

The GOPC Started By Doubling Opening GTDs

The Opening Ceremonies already gave us a pretty good idea of what was coming.

The $11 Opening Ceremony doubled its $15K guarantee, while the $55 version also doubled its $75K target. Even the $530 event smashed its $250K guarantee by more than $100K.

That is a pretty loud opening statement, and it was just the beginning.

$530 Main Event Draws 7,414 Entries

The biggest single prize pool of the GOPC 2026 came from the $530 Main Event, which started with a $3M guarantee and finished with 7,414 entries.

That was enough to create a $3.538M final prize pool, around 17.9% above the original guarantee. Champion siema collected $423,605, while runner-up DRATINI took $393,019 after a heads-up deal.

Siema also ended up as the biggest overall winner of the festival, with $480,542 in total earnings.

CoinMillions Kept The Numbers Rolling

The four $215 CoinMillions were another big part of the GOPC story. Each carried a $1M guarantee, with the four tournaments attracting 4,986, 5,321, 5,181 and 5,404 entries respectively.

CoinMillion	Entries	Winner	1st Prize
#1	4,986	Fish2025	$119,500
#2	5,321	FINALVERDICT7	$123,979
#3	5,181	GBortoleto	$96,494
#4	5,404	TheKingofCatrupe	$80,896

Only the first edition needed the guarantee to reach the $1M mark, while the other three went beyond it. Across the four events, the CoinMillions generated more than $4.18M in prize money against $4M in combined guarantees. The final edition was also the biggest, pulling in 5,404 entries.

Lower Buy-Ins Did Their Part

The lower end of the schedule was just as important. The $55 Global Main attracted 21,281 entries, while the $11 Global Mini Main brought in another 26,060.

That is 47,341 entries from two tournaments alone. The $55 event finished $64,050 above its $1M guarantee, while the $11 Mini Main added another $10,600 over its $250K target.

And this is probably one of the more interesting pieces of the GOPC puzzle. You don't need everyone to fire $1,000 or $5,000 bullets when thousands of players are happy to take a shot for $11, $55 or $215.

Next Up: The One

undefined — THE ONE: $5M GTD tournament makes the winner a millionaire.

CoinPoker is already putting another big number on the board with The One, a $250 buy-in carrying a $5M guarantee and $1M guaranteed for first place. There are 26 starting flights from October 4-12, with satellites and freerolls also available.

The GOPC turned $50M into $88.4M. Now CoinPoker gets to see if it can cook up another big one.
