$50 Million Guaranteed Across 37 Days
The number that jumps off the page is $50 million. That’s CoinPoker’s total guarantee across the GOPC, running for 37 days from August 23 through September 28, 2026. Rather than building the championship around a single time zone, CoinPoker has created schedules designed around players in:
Europe — Latin America — Asia
Each region also offers different buy-in levels, allowing players to choose High, Mid or Low versions of many tournaments.
What About Canadian Poker Players?
Canadian players can use these regional start times to find GOPC tournaments that fit their own schedule. Canada doesn’t have a separate GOPC region, so players should check the CoinPoker client for the tournament times and events available to their account.
For Canadians, the European and Latin American schedules may be particularly useful depending on where you live and when you prefer to play. Players in British Columbia can look for events that line up well with Pacific Time, while players in Ontario, Quebec and Atlantic Canada may find other regional start times more convenient.
Because Canada stretches across multiple time zones, there really isn’t one perfect “Canadian” tournament schedule anyway.
The good news is that the GOPC runs throughout the day, giving Canadian players more opportunities to find tournaments at reasonable hours.
The Three Biggest GOPC Main Events
The championship includes three particularly important Main Events catering to very different bankrolls.
1) $530 GOPC Main Event — $3 Million GTD
The biggest is the $530 Main Event with $3 million guaranteed. CoinPoker schedules Day 1 flights on Sundays and selected weekdays, with Day 2 scheduled for September 28 at 17:30 UTC. This is the championship’s flagship Main Event and the obvious target for players comfortable playing $500+ tournaments.
2) $55 Global Main — $1 Million GTD
You don’t need $530 to chase a seven-figure GOPC guarantee. The $55 Global Main carries $1 million guaranteed and offers three Day 1 flights per day. Day 2 is scheduled for September 21 at 17:30 UTC. A $55 entry into a complete tournament with a $1 million guarantee makes the Global Main one of the most interesting GOPC events for mid-stakes players.
3) $11 Global Mini Main — $250,000 GTD
Lower-bankroll players get the $11 Global Mini Main, carrying $250,000 guaranteed. Like the $55 Global Main, CoinPoker schedules multiple Day 1 flights, with Day 2 set for September 21. For an $11 buy-in, that’s a pretty serious guaranteed prize pool.
Don’t Confuse Flight Guarantees With Event Guarantees
This is important.
The $1 million Global Main and $250,000 Mini Main guarantees apply to the complete multi-flight events. Each individual $55 or $11 Day 1 flight does not have its own $1 million or $250,000 guarantee.
Four $1 Million CoinMillion Tournaments
CoinPoker is also bringing its flagship CoinMillion into the GOPC in a big way.
There are four $215 CoinMillion GOPC editions, scheduled for:
- September 6
- September 13
- September 20
- September 27
Each carries a $1 million guarantee.
That’s $4 million in combined CoinMillion guarantees during September alone.
For players already comfortable at the $215 tournament level, I’d have these four Sundays circled on the calendar.
$25,500 Super High Roller Championship
At the opposite end of the bankroll spectrum sits the $25,500 Super High Roller Championship.
It’s scheduled as a single-day event on September 22 with:
$1 million guaranteed.
Clearly, this isn’t aimed at the average recreational player.
If your normal Sunday tournament costs $11, I’d suggest enjoying this one from a safe distance.
CoinMasters BITCOIN Gets a $500K Guarantee
CoinPoker is also boosting its $150 CoinMasters BITCOIN tournament.
The September 20 edition carries a $500,000 guarantee.
There’s also a $1,500 CoinMasters BTC High Roller with $1 million guaranteed, with Day 2 scheduled for September 28.
Latest CoinPoker GOPC Schedule
The GOPC isn’t only about September’s massive Main Events.
CoinPoker has tournaments running throughout the championship, including Medal Events and daily tournaments across multiple buy-in levels.
Here are some of the notable August 25 GOPC tournaments confirmed CoinPoker publishes these start times in UTC.
| Date | UTC | Tournament | Buy-In | Guarantee |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Aug. 25 | 12:08 | CoinMasters Asia – PENGU | $88 | $30,000 GTD |
| Aug. 25 | 12:08 | Mini CoinMasters Asia – PENGU | $22 | $15,000 GTD |
| Aug. 25 | 12:08 | Micro Master Asia | $5.50 | $2,500 GTD |
| Aug. 25 | 14:05 | Tuesday Marathon 8-Max | $55 | $20,000 GTD |
| Aug. 25 | 14:30 | One Shot Freezeout | $109 | $12,500 GTD |
| Aug. 25 | 15:05 | Gold Tour Copenhagen | $320 | $50,000 GTD |
| Aug. 25 | 15:05 | Gold Tour Copenhagen | $55 | $30,000 GTD |
| Aug. 25 | 15:05 | Gold Tour Copenhagen | $11 | $8,000 GTD |
| Aug. 25 | 17:05 | CoinMasters – PENGU | $109 | $100,000 GTD |
| Aug. 25 | 17:05 | Mini CoinMasters – PENGU | $25 | $30,000 GTD |
| Aug. 25 | 17:05 | Micro Master | $5.50 | $4,000 GTD |
| Aug. 25 | 17:30 | Global Main Day 1 | $55 | $1M GTD complete event |
| Aug. 25 | 17:30 | Global Mini Main Day 1 | $11 | $250K GTD complete event |
| Aug. 25 | 18:05 | Sheriff on Tour PKO | $109 | $30,000 GTD |
| Aug. 25 | 18:05 | Sheriff on Tour PKO | $22 | $12,500 GTD |
CoinMasters PENGU: $100,000 GTD for $109
One of the August 25 tournaments that immediately caught my eye is the $109 CoinMasters PENGU with $100,000 guaranteed.
CoinPoker also offers lower tiers:
$25 Mini CoinMasters PENGU — $30,000 GTD
$5.50 Micro Master — $4,000 GTD
That gives players three very different bankroll levels to choose from without abandoning the same section of the GOPC schedule.
Gold Tour Copenhagen
Gold Tour Copenhagen follows a similar structure.
The August 25 schedule includes:
$320 — $50,000 GTD
$55 — $30,000 GTD
$11 — $8,000 GTD
All three are Medal Events on CoinPoker’s official schedule.
For most recreational players, the $11 and $55 versions are probably the more interesting options.
Sheriff on Tour PKO
Progressive Knockout players also get dedicated GOPC action.
The August 25 schedule includes a $109 Sheriff on Tour PKO with $30,000 guaranteed and a $22 version with $12,500 guaranteed.
PKOs change the normal tournament equation because eliminating another player has immediate monetary value through the bounty.
That can create spots where your decision differs from what you’d make in an ordinary freezeout.
Plenty of Low-Stakes GOPC Tournaments
One thing I like about the GOPC is that CoinPoker hasn’t built the entire championship around $100+ buy-ins.
The official August 25 schedule alone includes tournaments at $2.20, $3.30, $5.50, $8.88, $11, $15, $22 and $25, alongside the larger events.
That matters.
A $50 million championship sounds like something designed exclusively for professionals and high rollers. In reality, there are plenty of ways for recreational players to participate without lighting their bankroll on fire.
Gold, Silver and Bronze GOPC Medals
The GOPC isn’t purely about cash prizes.
Selected championship tournaments are designated as Medal Events, where players can earn Gold, Silver and Bronze medals.
CoinPoker describes players as competing for podium positions while representing GOPC teams and regions.
The official daily schedule identifies the tournaments where medals are available, making it relatively easy to distinguish championship events from regular tournaments.
Can Canadians Play the CoinPoker GOPC?
Canadian players should confirm GOPC availability directly inside their CoinPoker account before depositing or registering.
The public GOPC material describes the championship as a global competition but does not provide a province-by-province Canadian eligibility list on the pages reviewed for this article.
In particular, verify:
- Your provincial eligibility
- Ontario availability
- Tournament availability
- Account verification requirements
- Currency
- Local starting time
- Re-entry rules
- Exact tournament structure
Which GOPC Tournaments Look Best?
There isn’t one tournament that’s best for everybody.
Best Championship Main Event
$530 Main Event — $3 Million GTD
This is the big one. It’s CoinPoker’s largest advertised GOPC guarantee for a single Main Event.
Best Mid-Stakes Main Event
$55 Global Main — $1 Million GTD
A much more accessible buy-in while still playing for a seven-figure complete-event guarantee.
Best Low-Stakes Main Event
$11 Global Mini Main — $250,000 GTD
An $11 entry point into a quarter-million-dollar guaranteed multi-flight event is going to be attractive to a lot of recreational players.
Best Sunday Tournament
$215 CoinMillion GOPC — $1 Million GTD
There are four of them, running September 6, 13, 20 and 27.
Best Current Mid-Stakes Tournament
$25 Mini CoinMasters PENGU — $30,000 GTD
On the August 25 schedule, I particularly like the relationship between the $25 buy-in and $30,000 guarantee.
How to Choose the Right GOPC Tournament
The biggest guarantee isn’t automatically the best tournament for you.
Start with your bankroll.
Then consider the buy-in, tournament structure, field, starting time, PKO versus standard format, re-entry rules and whether you’re playing a single-day or multi-flight tournament.
If your online tournament bankroll is $500, the existence of a $3 million guarantee does not magically make firing a $530 Main Event good bankroll management.
The $11 Mini Main might actually be the smarter tournament.
And surviving long enough to play another day remains one of poker’s most underrated strategies.
PokerHub Verdict on the CoinPoker GOPC
The 2026 Global Online Poker Championship is one of CoinPoker’s most ambitious tournament series, combining $50 million in guarantees with 37 days of tournaments from August 23 through September 28.
The $530 Main Event with $3 million guaranteed provides the headline, but I think the real strength of the GOPC is how far down the bankroll ladder the championship reaches.
There’s a $55 Global Main with $1 million guaranteed, an $11 Mini Main with $250,000 guaranteed, $215 CoinMillions with seven-figure guarantees, and daily tournaments available for only a few dollars.
That gives recreational players, regular tournament grinders and high rollers something meaningful to play without pretending they all have the same bankroll.
GOPC dates: August 23–September 28, 2026
Total series guarantee: $50 million
