- Daily multi-table tournaments from C$1 to C$200 buy-ins on GGPoker, PokerStars, and 888poker.
- Weekly Sunday flagship events with mid-five-figure to six-figure guarantees.
- Daily freerolls, especially for newly registered players.
- Sit-and-go and SPINS-style jackpot formats throughout the day.
- Periodic seasonal series like GGPoker’s Bounty Hunters Series, PokerStars’ Power Path, and 888poker’s BLAST events.
How to find tournaments after launch
The most reliable way to find what is running on a given day will be to log into each room’s tournament lobby and filter by date, buy-in, and format. We will publish a live weekly schedule on this page once operators are licensed and running.
Be aware that tournament schedules change as rooms add special events, festival series, and seasonal promotions. Our weekly summary will reflect the current week each Monday once the market is live.
