A $512 buy-in no-limit hold'em tournament with a million-dollar guarantee launches May 23 at a Live! Casino property — two flights, one weekend, and a guarantee-to-buy-in ratio that demands roughly 2,000 entries to cover.

The Details

Live! Cup VII is a no-limit hold'em event with two Day 1 flights scheduled for May 23. Flight A fires at 2:15 PM ET; Flight B follows at 8:15 PM ET. The buy-in is $512. The guarantee is $1,000,000.

That million-dollar number makes this one of the largest non-WSOP, non-WPT guaranteed tournaments running anywhere in the country this weekend.

The Math

At $512 per entry, the tournament needs approximately 1,953 entries across both flights just to meet the guarantee — before accounting for the house rake. Anything short of that number and the overlay becomes real money back in players' pockets.

For context, a $1M guarantee at this price point is aggressive scheduling. Independent East Coast properties don't post seven-figure numbers lightly, and the two-flight structure on a single calendar date compresses the window for entries.

No venue city was listed in the tournament's published schedule data. Live! operates casino-hotel properties in Maryland, Pennsylvania, and Louisiana. Players should confirm the specific host property before making travel plans.
