CoinPoker Releases Schedule and Qualifier Details for For $5,000,000 GTD The One Tournament

CoinPoker will open qualification for The One on September 28, introducing its new flagship tournament with a massive $5,000,000 guaranteed prize pool and a $1,000,000 first prize from a $250 buy‑in. CoinPoker has also released the full schedule of Day 1 flights along with two major promotional offers tied to The One.

The One: $5,000,000 Guaranteed & $1,000,000 Top Prize

The One is CoinPoker’s biggest tournament ever, offering a $5 million guarantee and a seven‑figure payout for the winner. No previous CoinPoker event has featured a prize pool of this size, making The One the largest tournament the platform has ever staged.

With a $250 buy‑in, players now have a shot at a 4,000x return if they capture the $1,000,000 first‑place prize.

CoinPoker plans for The One to become an annual flagship event, with this October edition serving as the debut installment of the series.

The One’s Qualification Path Features 26 Day 1 Flights

CoinPoker is opening multiple qualification routes into The One well ahead of Day 1. Freerolls, step satellites, and direct satellites run from September 28 to October 12, giving players entry options at every price point — including completely free. Direct satellites start at $5.50, while step satellites begin at just $0.10.

Twenty‑Six Day 1 Flights Run October 4–12

A total of 26 Day 1 flights begin on October 4, scheduled across global time zones with three flights per day through October 11. On October 12, CoinPoker adds two turbo Day 1 flights as a final chance to qualify before Day 2 begins later that same day.

All Day 1 starting stacks are 125,000 chips (125 BB).

Players may enter unlimited Day 1 flights. If a player qualifies for Day 2 more than once, only their largest stack advances.

October 4–11 Day 1 Flight Schedule

Each standard Day 1 flight features 10‑minute blind levels and 2.5 hours of late registration.

• 1:30 PM UTC
• 4:30 PM UTC
• 7:30 PM UTC

October 12 Turbo Day 1 Flights

Turbo flights on October 12 use 5‑minute blind levels:

• 12:30 PM UTC
• 2:00 PM UTC

Flight Buy‑In‑Back: Cash Refunds for Every Qualifying Entry

CoinPoker is introducing Flight Buy‑In‑Back, a mechanic that refunds the full Day 1 buy‑in in cash for every entry that qualifies for Day 2.

Players can continue entering additional Day 1 flights even after qualifying. Each extra qualifying entry triggers:

1. A full buy‑in refund, and
2. A bonus cash payment equal to Day 2’s minimum cash prize minus the $250 buy‑in.

Example

If Day 2’s min‑cash is $700:

• Bonus = $700 − $250 = $450
• Plus the $250 buy‑in refund
• Total payout for that extra qualifying entry = $700

Only the player’s largest stack moves forward; all other qualifying entries convert into bonus cash.

Daily Re‑Entry Promotion Runs October 4–11

From October 4 to October 11, CoinPoker will award three free tickets to The One each day. The winners are the three players with the most real‑money re‑entries into that day’s Day 1 flights.

Standings reset at 00:00 UTC daily, allowing players to win on multiple days.

Winners on October 11 receive their tickets before the final Day 1 flights on October 12.

Discord Hero Promotion Awards a Free Ticket to The One

CoinPoker’s Discord Hero promotion offers another free path into The One.

Each month, CoinPoker moderators nominate active, positive contributors from the official Discord community. The wider community then votes to select that month’s Discord Hero.

The September Discord Hero receives:

Joining the official CoinPoker Discord is the first step for players aiming to earn this free entry.

Qualification for The One Begins Immediately After GOPC

CoinPoker’s Global Online Poker Championship (GOPC) concludes on September 28, wrapping up $50,000,000 in guaranteed prize pools across more than 700 Medal Events.
