YA Poker Guarantees $16 Million, February 12th to 26th, with a Major Announcement
By RTR Alex
YA Poker is setting a remarkable pace in 2024. Following a highly successful Venom PKO Tournament in January, which had a prize pool surpassing $7 million, they are raising the stakes even higher. YA Poker has announced a groundbreaking Million Venom Tourney in April, setting new records.
The Venom Tournament, a cornerstone event of YA Poker, has gained rapid popularity since its inception in 2018, initially offering a $5 Million guarantee. It has expanded significantly over the years, now doubling its initial impressive prize pool.
Venom now occurs four times annually, alternating between two $5 million Venom PKO tournaments and two $10 Million Venom regular events every six months. But YA Poker is now ambitiously increasing the tournament prize to $12.5 Million, a bold step given their history of not covering their $10 Million guarantee. This potentially offers players exceptional overlay value.
In the meantime, YA Poker is not slowing down. The upcoming Online Super Series from February 12th to 26th is set to be pivotal.
