As you can see from the schedule above, ChampionChips buy-ins start at $5.50, increase to $109, and have plenty of choice between those extremes. All but six tournaments have guarantees of at least $1,000, with two tipping the scales at a cool $30,000.

Your first opportunity to play for a five-figure prize pool comes on the opening night of the ChampionChips festival. Event #02 is a $109 buy-in, $30,000 guaranteed Mystery Bounty Opening Ceremony, which serves as a great way to get the show on the road.

The eagerly anticipated Mystery Bounty Main Event is the other $30,000 guaranteed ChampionChips tournament. Day 1s run every day from April 14 right up to April 22, which is also when the tournament concludes. $60 is the buy-in unless you win your way in via the plentiful satellites, and you will play for a guaranteed $30,000 with one of the mystery bounties awarding $3,000! Good luck!
