The fifth edition of this tournament series will feature 22 main events (46 events total), and it runs from June 11-30. The $2,200 no-limit hold’em championship event will take place on June 25-29 and it has a guaranteed prize pool worth $500,000.

Here is a look at the schedule for the championship event:

There are two preliminary events with guaranteed prize pools as well. On June 16 and 23 a $200 no-limit hold’em event with a $50,000 guaranteed prize pool will begin.
