Venetian Cancels $1.1M Worth of PokerGO Stairway to Millions GTDs Day Before Tournament

With two tournaments totaling $1.1 million in promised guarantees remaining in the PokerGO Stairway to Millions series at Venetian in Las Vegas, the card room has pulled the plug on both events.

On Sunday, there was expected to be a $25,500 buy-in tournament featuring a $500,000 guaranteed. Those who reached the money would then receive a ticket into Monday's $51,000 buy-in event, which was to have $600,000 minimum in the pot. Both have been called off despite a few players having won free entries into the Sunday tournament, presumably due to expected overlays.
