In July and August 2024, PokerKing will host three historic Venom tournaments with a combined guaranteed prize pool of $11,000,000. This article compiles all the known information about them as of July 10th.

$55 Venom WarmUp $1,000,000 Gtd

In July 2024, PokerKing will give players a chance to prepare for the two brand new Venoms by participating in a cheaper “warm-up” tournament — $55 Venom WarmUp $1,000,000 Gtd!

Details of Venom WarmUp

  • Buy-in — $55
  • Guarantee — $1,000,000
  • Period — from July 7 to 29, 2024
  • 192 flights — from July 7th at 12:05 am ET to July 28th at 1:30 pm ET
  • Day 2 starts on July 28th at 4:05 pm ET

The final table (Day 3) starts on July 29th at 2:05 pm ET

Structure of Venom WarmUp

Starting stack — 100,000 chips (100 BB) in flights; combined stack in Day 2 from all successfully completed flights

  • Blind levels — 15 / 12 minutes in Normal, 5 minutes in Hyper
  • Late registration — 12 levels
  • Unlimited re-entries
  • Duration of each flight — 17 levels

The Venom WarmUp final table will be broadcast in the PokerKing lobby with a 30-minute delay.

$2,650 Venom Mystery Bounty $8,000,000 Gtd

The first-ever Winning Poker Network Venom with a “mystery bounty” will take place from August 4 to 20.

The minimum bounty in this tournament is $5,000, and the maximum is $500,000. If the tournament exceeds its guarantee, the latter amount may be increased.

This Venom will have 5 flights

  1. Day 1A — August 4 at 06:05 GMT
  2. Day 1B — August 8 at 06:05 GMT
  3. Day 1C — August 11 at 06:05 GMT
  4. Day 1D — August 15 at 06:05 GMT
  5. Day 1E — August 18 at 06:05 GMT

Day 2 starts on August 19 at 07:05 GMT and will continue until the formation of the 9-max final table, which starts on August 20.

All flights have the same structure

  • Starting stack — 187.5 BB
  • Bounty prize pool deduction — $1,250 from each buy-in
  • Late registration — 21 levels of 20 minutes each
  • Unlimited re-entries
  • Flight duration — until 15% of the field remains

Players can play any number of flights — their stacks will accumulate when moving to Day 2. 

Additionally, each successful completion of Day 1 will earn the player a $2,500 min-cash — effectively returning one buy-in minus the rake.

Random bounties will only drop on Day 2 and at the final table, while Day 1 will proceed as a regular tournament.

$2,650 Venom PLO 6-Max $2,000,000 Gtd

For the first time in Venom’s history — dating back to 2019 — a special Omaha version of this tournament will take place in August 2024. It will feature WPN’s unique card reshuffle function, where cards folded pre-flop are not discarded but shuffled back into the deck.

  2. Day 1B — August 8 at 07:05 GMT
  3. Day 1C — August 11 at 07:05 GMT
  4. Day 1D — August 15 at 07:05 GMT
  5. Day 1E — August 18 at 07:05 GMT

Day 2 starts on August 19 at 07:05 GMT and will run until the formation of the 7-max final table. The final table starts on August 20 at 23:05 MSK.

All flights have the same structure
