2025 XL Spring Series Main Event Has $500,000 Guaranteed

The $250 buy-in, $500,000 guaranteed Mystery Bounty Main Event is the crown jewel of the XL Spring Series. Day 1s began on May 4 and run frequently until May 26, which is also when Day 2 occurs.

Each flight sees entrants sit down with 10,000 chips and play to a 15-minute clock where the blinds start at 20/40/5a. Play continues until only 11% of the field remains or the conclusion of Level 20, whichever comes first.

Players who progress to Day 2 return to their seats from 10:30 p.m. BST on May 26, which is when the mystery bounties come into play. One of those bounties tips the scales at a cool $50,000!

Day 2 ends once the eight-handed final table is set, with those finalists returning to the action from 6:00 p.m. on May 27, doing so under the watchful eyes of 888poker's excellent Twitch stream.

As of 12:00 p.m. BST on May 12, some 449 players have fired into the XL Spring Series Mystery Bounty Main Event, but only 51 of those have punched their Day 2 tickets at the first time of asking. "icho90" is the current chip leader having turned their fourth $250 entry into a tournament-leading 256,619 chips.

$100,000 Guaranteed in the $25 Buy-In Mini Main Event

As with previous 888poker festivals, the XL Spring Series features a mini main event, although nothing is really mini about it. 888poker guarantees at least $100,000 will be won in Event #49 despite the affordable buy-in of $25.

A handful of Day 1s are already in the bag, with more flights scheduled up to and including May 26. At the time of writing, 226 players have entered the $100,000 Mystery Bounty Mini Main Event, with 28 safely through to Day 2.
