With tournaments firming up their schedules and live poker offerings for 2020, poker players are keeping an eye out for anything new and exciting that might make its way onto their own poker calendars for the year ahead.
partypoker has been improving its tournament offering for the past few years, from three MILLIONS events in both 2017 to five in 2019 and the 2020 MILLIONS UK held at Dusk Till Dawn this January has a $5,000,000 guaranteed prize pool.
Meanwhile, their online tournaments have been a mixed bag, with their biggest success coming when Benjamin 'frenchsniperrr' Chalot took home $2,259,113 after winning the partypoker MILLIONS Online. However, the return of the $1M Gtd partypoker MILLION hit by cancellation back in November.
Rob Yong Asks the Audience
One person seemingly aiming to improving and diversifying partypoker's tournament offering is Dusk Till Dawn owner and partypoker partner Rob Yong.
Since the beginning of December, Yong has posted a total of 13 questions on a wide range of topics including their preferred tournament length (four days), blind levels (60 minutes), re-entry policy (freezeout) and what live poker streams they prefer to watch (high stakes cash games).
Additionally, Yong has suggested ideas for three new tournament formats - both live and online - to his 23,500 Twitter followers that may or may not come to fruition in the coming months.
partypoker MILLIONS Limited Edition
Dubbed a 'MILLIONS for amateurs' it's clear that the format would suit those unable to commit a great deal of time to a live event.
With both Day 1 and 2 online, all players would be in the money - assured a $10,000 min-cash - and Yong says a 'super structure' would be in place ahead of a Live Day 3 where the blinds would be rolled back.

MILLIONS Pro-Am
Yong didn't just limit his ideas to the partypoker LIVE scene, but also floated the idea for a special MILLIONS online involving both professional and amateur players.
With a buy-in of $5,000, professionals and amateurs would play separately on Day 1, similar to the Triton Million in 2019.
An equal number of professionals and amateurs would then make it to Day 2. Yong didn't poll whether players liked this idea, like he did with the previous event, but how many professionals people thought would make the final table of nine.

partypoker MILLIONS Invitational
The latest proposed event by Yong is for a 'MILLIONS Invitational' to take place before the Triton Poker series in London in August 2020.
With a £5,300 buy-in, the tournament would be restricted to qualifiers only with no direct buy-in and no late registration. Played with an eight-max format, each table would have seven qualifiers as well as one invited amateur VIP guest.

Pot Limit Omaha fans are delighted to learn partypoker has added 11 new PLO tournaments to its schedule and they all come under the Daily Legends umbrella.

All Daily Legends were No-Limit Hold’em variants until the new PLO Daily Legends launched.
Eleven new PLO Daily Legends run Monday through Sunday with buy-ins ranging from $2.20 up to a still affordable $55. Guaranteed prize pools for these PLO tournaments range between $750 and $5,000. partypoker will no doubt increase these guarantees over time if players support the tournaments.
