Day 2 Staking

We've talked about WSOP Online Day 2 Staking before on PokerNews. It makes railing players in the 2020 WSOP Online even more exciting, as they close in on a share of some HUGE guarantees as part of the schedule.

Even Daniel Negreanu is a fan, telling PokerNews that the addition of Day 2 staking makes the GGPoker Staking platform "a whole lot cooler."

"In the client, you could always buy or sell before the start of an event," said Negreanu. "But now you can make even more informed decisions based on day one results.

"This allows you to either sell and lock up some cash, or buy some players who already have a big stack. Allows for more intelligent investing. I think it's great."

GGPoker's popular Bubble Protection is available throughout the WSOP Online. It's available for all non-phase events with buy-ins less than $999. This means that if you register before the start of play and go on to bubble the tournament, you'll receive your buy-in back.

This is available for at least 18 of the 51 WSOP Online events on GGPoker.

Best Stack Forward

Any player that makes it to the end of a Day 1 with a stack is allowed to take part in additional Day 1s if they want to, providing they have not exceeded the maximum number of re-entries.

However, if a player finishes multiple Day 1s with chips, only the highest chip stack will go to Day 2.
