The Genting Poker Series is gearing up for the ninth edition of the tour and it is one of the busiest yet with 16 stop confirmed for the 2020 GPS.

Twelve of the 16 scheduled GPS Main Events only cost £225 to enter yet feature a £35,000 guaranteed prize pool. These events tend to perform well and surpass their guarantees. For example, last year's Reading leg saw Patrick Phelan top a field of 284 to bank £10,595 for his £225 investment.

Likewise, David Leyland walked away with £14,000 after a three-handed deal, in the Liverpool Queen Square leg.
