The largest tournament in TON Poker has begun! A full month of satellites awaits, culminating in a $10,000 prize tournament you can enter for FREE!

How do I reach the final?

The final will take place on April 19, with a prize pool of $10,000! To qualify, secure a winning position in satellite tournaments. They can be found in the Tourneys section and run every 30 minutes.

How do I register for a satellite tournament?

You can enter a satellite for 100 Gems.
Each player receives 300 Gems for free, allowing 3 free attempts to participate in satellites.

What if I win multiple satellites?

Congratulations! However, additional wins don't transfer. If you win multiple satellites, you still receive only one seat in the Grand Final.

Gems are the internal currency of TON Poker, awarded for participating in cash games.
