The Golden Nugget’s Grand Poker Series returns this summer and will run from May 30-July 3, featuring 89 events (eight more than in 2022) and offering over $3 million in guaranteed prize money.

Aligning nicely with other tournament series in Las Vegas this summer, including the 2023 World Series of Poker (WSOP), the Golden Nugget Grand Poker Series will feature poker variants including Mystery Bounty, Pot-Limit Omaha, Big O, Mixed Triple Draw Lowball, Limit 2-7 Lowball, H.O.R.S.E. and Triple Stud.

What’s more, we’re very excited to confirm that the $1,000,000 GTD PokerNews Cup will return to downtown Las Vegas. Last year’s edition set the record for the largest prize pool ever offered in the history of the Golden Nugget, a record that could very well be beaten this summer given the $1,100 buy-in tournament is now being offered in the popular Mystery Bounty format. More on that below!

Here’s Everything You Need to Know about Poker at the Golden Nugget!

A Look At the Schedule

Last year, the Golden Nugget’s Grand Poker Series catered to 18,209 entrants and awarded $4,532,670 in prize money over its 81 events. This year is likely to be even bigger and better!

The series will kick off with four tournaments on Tuesday, May 30 including the $300 buy-in Event #1: $10,000 Omaha Hi/Low 8 or Better at 11 a.m. local time. That day will also mark the first $150 buy-in, $10K GTD Daily Deep Stack NLH at 1 p.m., and $130 buy-in Nightly NLH at 7 p.m. While those two events won’t run every single day, they are both a staple on the 2023 Grand Poker Series schedule.

The $200 buy-in Event #10: $200,000 GTD NLH will hold nine starting flights from Thursday, June 1 through Saturday, June 3 with flights starting at 11 a.m., 1 p.m., and 7 p.m. each of those days. The surviving players from each tournament will return at Noon on Sunday, June 4 for Day 2 action.

Poker fans will be excited to know the Bar Poker Open is returning to the Golden Nugget with their annual invitational which will run Monday, June 12 through Thursday, June 15. The final table of that tournament will be live-streamed. Also, on that Thursday, the Bar Poker Open Pro-Am, a $1,000 buy-in event, will take place.

For fans of Mystery Bounties, a $300 buy-in, $250K GTD Mystery Bounty event will run Friday, June 16 through Monday, June 19. That tournament will offer a total of nine starting flights with three a day at 11 a.m., 3 p.m., and 7 p.m.

The 2023 Grand Poker Series Championship Event once again costs $600 to enter and boasts a $500,000 guarantee. That tournament will have three starting flights at 11 a.m. each day from June 23-25, with survivors from each returning at Noon on Monday, June 26 to play down to a winner.

All tournaments will be one-day events except for 10, 28, 32, 38, 41, 59, and 78

In 2022, the inaugural PokerNews Cup at Golden Nugget attracted 1,245 entries and surpassed the $1 million guarantee by creating a $1,207,650 prize pool, the largest-ever in the Golden Nugget’s 76-year history.

At the end of the five days of action, the winner of the $202,725 grand prize was Gary Gelman of Brooklyn, New York. Gelman wore a Ukrainian flag draped around him throughout the final table and he was asked to expand on that after his win.

Gary Gelman, the 2022 PokerNews Cup champ at Golden Nugget

“It is special to me. I was born in Ukraine, I lived there with my parents when I was a kid. I also married a Ukrainian a few years ago. It has been real hard these last few months. We were actually in Kiev in February when the war started. We had to make our way out and we brought her mother back with us.”

He continued, “When I made the final table I thought I would represent and luckily one of my friends on the rail had a flag and I decided to wear it today.”
