There’s a new tournament format to enjoy on GGPoker, perfect for both poker and football fans! “Bet & Go” launched on November 20, 2022, coinciding with the opening of the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar.
How to Enter a Bet & Go Game on GGPoker
The new Bet & Go tournaments on GGPoker are connected to upcoming live football matches across the globe. Players can take part by going to the tournament lobby and selecting a Bet & Go game.
Players have two buy-ins to choose from and the amount depends on what team they’re supporting. They’ll be given discounts based on each team’s odds of winning. Players supporting the underdogs will enjoy bigger buy-in discounts than those siding with the team highly favored to win the game.
Poker Tournament with a Twist
When the live game kicks off, each player’s team flag will be shown over their heads. A live scoreboard from the actual football match will also be displayed as the tournament progresses.
Now here’s where it gets interesting: if you laid your money on the winning team, or if the game concludes in a draw, you’ll be able to continue playing the Bet & Go tournament as normal, with the chance to reach the money.
But if the team you chose loses, you will be automatically eliminated from the tournament. The remaining players will then advance to the next round.
