Last week’s Big Sunday at HighStakes was such a roaring success that next month’s running is promised to be even bigger and better.

Doubling Up

The powers that be have decided to double the guarantees for the edition starting on February 2 2020. A whopping €200,000 will be sat there waiting to be won regardless of how many players show up to play the 30 events on offer.

This is also an increase on how many tournaments we saw last time showing that the monthly party is going from strength to strength.

What to Expect

Player will have the opportunity to play tournaments with buy ins ranging from complete freeroll up to the highlight of the day - the €1,000 Main Event Super High Roller.

Daily satellite tournaments to qualify for the bigger events are already underway. Last week an impressive 80% of the players in the Big Sunday tournaments were qualifiers via the satellites and the tournament leaderboards.

A full schedule of the Big Sunday events and satellites can be viewed here.

Top Draw Pros Expected

For next month’s edition of Big Sunday a number of top pros are expected to be challenging for the plaudits.

Last week we saw HighStakes ambassador Joseph ‘subiime’ Cheong win his second Big Sunday Super High Roller Main Event in consecutive months. Can anybody stop the WSOP gold bracelet winner taking a hat trick in a little over two weeks?

One player who knows all about winning three events in quick succession is HighStakes reg ‘usedtobecool’. The tournament grinder picked up three wins in a single day during last week’s Big Sunday netting him the Triple Crown Bonus of €10,000. A nice bonus after already picking up some decent cash over the day.

If anybody can stop Cheong next month it will be Bryan ‘BOOMSwitch’ Paris. The American MTT star is well into eight figures for his online tournament cashes and is always a player to be feared.

Paris will also be expected to be streaming his exploits on Twitch which will delight poker fans from all over the world. He might have made countless millions from poker but he still sees value in entertaining the rest of us.

There are also rumours that another top poker personality will be streaming their pay on Twitch during Big Sunday.

Don’t forget to tune in unless you’re already planning on signing up to HighStakes to get involved in a big day for online tournament poker.
