The proposition
One hundred pounds for a shot at a £50,000 guaranteed prize pool, with deep starting stacks — that is the whole pitch, and it holds at every leg. The G200 asks £200 for the same guarantee; a GUKPT Main Event asks £1,250 for £250,000. On a guarantee-per-pound basis the Monster Stack is the best value on Grosvenor's live calendar.
How the calendar is shaped
The tour front-loads the summer. Eleven of the nineteen legs run between 2 June and 30 August, frequently three venues in the same week — Portsmouth, Newcastle and Edinburgh all opened together in June. September brings Portsmouth and Edinburgh again, then Coventry, and the schedule closes with a single November stop at Luton.
Which venues
Thirteen named towns appear on the published table: Portsmouth, Newcastle, Edinburgh, Birmingham, Blackpool, Walsall, Luton, Manchester, Liverpool, Glasgow, Reading, Sheffield and Coventry. Walsall, Manchester, Newcastle, Portsmouth, Edinburgh and Luton each get two legs. Every leg runs Tuesday to Sunday.
Satellites and tickets
Grosvenor's online feeder satellites start at £1 and ladder through £5 and £30 to live event credit worth £200, £300, £500 or £1,250. Credit is not a reserved seat — it is presented at the casino cash desk as full or part payment, with any balance paid there. A ticket worth more than the tournament it is used for returns the difference as venue tournament credit, and Grosvenor states that credit won online does not expire.
