888poker Ups "The Whale" Guarantee to $500,000

888poker's monthly "Whale" tournament has undergone a massive supersizing in March, promising $500K guaranteed for the next running on Sunday, March 29.

Typically hosted with a $200,000 prize pool on the fourth Sunday at a buy-in of $530, the next Whale is a mere six days from now and will pay out half a million bucks to players landing in-the-money.

Starting with a deep stack of 10,000 chips, the blind levels are each 25 minutes long, allowing for plenty of play. The action gets underway at 19:00 GMT on March 29.

If that $530 buy-in is a bit too steep for your bankroll, 888poker offers step satellites that run constantly where you can win a seat to the Whale for just a dime if you begin at Step One. Four different steps are available at $0.10, $3, $22 and $109. Enter at any step of your choosing.

The Whale is 888poker's biggest tournament and the March 29 event got 150% bigger.
