Mini Mega Millions XII is the main event of Big Poker Oktober 2026 and the largest published guarantee on a Californian cardroom schedule this autumn: $1,000,000, in a tournament whose cheapest entry is $200.

How the flights work

Day 1 runs as a long sequence of flights rather than a single starting day. From 25 October to 2 November there is a $400 flight at 4pm on most days, and on seven of those days — 26 October to 1 November — a $200 flight at 2pm as well. Surviving stacks carry into one of two second days.

Day 2A is on 2 November and Day 2B on 3 November, each with a $1,400 direct buy-in for players who would rather skip the flights entirely. The two fields merge for Day 3 on 4 November.

What the guarantee means

$1,000,000 guaranteed means the room will pay out at least that much whether or not entries cover it. With a $200 route in, the structure is unusually accessible for a seven-figure prize pool, which is the point of the "Mini" in the name.

Getting in cheaper

The room schedules its own feeders into the Day 2 seats: mega satellites at $320 on 1 and 2 November at 7:30pm, and Flip & Go's at $200 on 2 and 3 November at 11am.

Dates, times, buy-ins and the guarantee are taken from the room's own published structures page, read on 14 October 2026, and can change. Please gamble responsibly.
