Pads POWERJAM Brings Weekly Bounty Action to World Poker Masters
The Pads POWERJAM has been introduced to the World Poker Masters Sunday schedule, featuring a new bounty tournament concept developed in collaboration with Patrick Leonard. This $125 buy-in event, which launched during the opening week with a $50,000 guaranteed prize pool, will be held every Sunday throughout the series.
Each weekly winner will receive a full week of direct mentorship from Pads, including one-on-one strategy sessions. CoinPoker and Leonard plan to scale the tournament based on player participation throughout the month. If the guarantee reaches $100,000 by the series’ end, all Pads POWERJAM participants will be entered into a special $25,000 freeroll.
CoinPoker has also implemented a community-driven bonus: if Patrick Leonard wins a Pads POWERJAM event himself, the entire prize pool will be covered and redistributed to players through giveaways via Leonard’s Instagram stories.
WPM Main Event and Mini Main Event Continue To June 1 Finale
The $530 World Poker Masters Main Event continues to run Day 1 flights every Sunday until the final Day 2 on June 1st. This event boasts a $2,500,000 guaranteed prize pool, the largest in CoinPoker’s history.
Alongside the Main Event, the $55 Mini Main Event offers daily Day 1 flights (except Fridays), leading to a combined Day 2 finale on June 1st. The Mini Main Event is anticipated to attract the largest tournament field in CoinPoker’s history. Players can qualify for both events through daily satellites and step qualifiers available directly within the CoinPoker WPM lobby.
Player Wins First-Ever 6th Unique Coin in CoinMasters
A significant milestone has been reached in the CoinMasters tournament promotion, with player ggggUnit successfully winning their 6th unique Coin. This achievement is crucial for CoinMasters players, as unlocking rewards begins when a player collects seven unique Coins.
Once a player has seven unique coins, the final table countdown will be triggered, and CoinMasters players will soon compete for a $100,000 poker career package. Concurrently, $100,000 in Hall of Fame freerolls will be introduced, and ggggUnit has already secured their seat in these.
Previously, four players held five unique Coins. With this recent victory in the new $25 CoinMasters LATAM event, ggggUnit now only needs one PEPE coin to complete their collection of all seven.
The CoinMasters LATAM collection is a new addition to the schedule, with events designed to accommodate Latin American time zones.
