GGPoker will shine the spotlight on female players this Saturday, April 17, by running a female-focused tournament, in collaboration with the Fantastic Ladies in Poker (FLIP).
Not only that – there will also be a fun-filled party, with Bling Empire star Kim Lee performing an exclusive DJ set live on GGPoker.TV! More details below.
The upcoming tournament in partnership with FLIP features an affordable $10 buy-in, with $20,000 in guarantees up for grabs.
The tournament is open to all (men and women), but members of FLIP will be granted free entry, and will also get the chance to win extra prizes apart from the prize pool, including a luxury Saint Laurent leather shoulder bag worth $2,450 which will be awarded to the best-performing FLIP member, as well as a $1,500 GG Spring Festival Main Event ticket which will go to the second-best FLIP finisher.
FLIP members are advised to follow instructions and check for updates in their Facebook group. The tournament kicks off with each player having 10,000 in starting chips, played to 10-minute levels. Re-entry and late registration are also allowed.
How to Enter
To take part in the upcoming event, you must have a GGPoker account. If you have yet to register, you may download the GGPoker app through its website, with an amazing welcome package plus exciting perks waiting for you. After signing up, simply go to the GGPoker lobby to register for the tournament.
About FLIP
Fantastic Ladies in Poker is a global community comprised of female poker players and enthusiasts.

Byrne is equally happy that FLIP has partnered with an online poker operator that shares a similar vision for inclusivity and developing innovations that resonate with the poker community.
