Every online poker site has a flagship weekly tournament that usually takes place on Sunday. PartyPoker is one such poker room. The Sunday Party is PartyPoker's showpiece event, but despite its lofty status, you could be playing in the next edition from only $0.01.

The Sunday Party is a $109 buy-in No-Limit Hold'em tournament played with a progressive knockout structure. PartyPoker guarantees not a cent less than $100,000 will be dished out via the main prize pool and in bounties combined by the time the worthy champion is announced.

Unfortunately, the $109 buy-in is a little too steep for many of PartyPoker's customers, plus there are dozens more budget-conscious grinders who don't like paying full price to enter any tournament, regardless of its guaranteed prize pool. If you fall into either camp, you must check out the vast range of Sunday Party satellites that run around the clock.

Sunday Party Phase Satellites

The Sunday Party has a dedicated satellite tree that you can buy into at any stage. Eventually, all Sunday Party Phase satellites feed into the weekly final on Sunday at 5:05 p.m. UK time, where up to 50x $109 seats are guaranteed. No direct buy-ins are available for this weekly satellite; you have to play your way in from the next lowest phase.

Anyone reading this who fancies a challenge or has a small bankroll can enter The Sunday Party Centroll. These budget satellites cost a mere $0.01, hence their name. Each Sunday Party Centroll guaranteed 10x $1.10 Phase 1 tickets. It is a loss-making exercise for PartyPoker, but they are a generous online poker site.

The $1.10 Phase 1 satellites run regularly and put those who survive into the $5.50 buy-in Phase 2 tournaments. It is worth noting that you take your chip stack through with you in all the Sunday Party Phase satellites.

Try out the PokerNews Online Tournament Calendar and find your perfect PartyPoker tournament. Apply filters to narrow down your search before hitting the tables and becoming an PartyPoker champion.

Navigate your way through a $5.50 Phase 2 and you take your chips through to a $22 buy-in Phase 3. This is the stage where your A-game needs to shine because progressing from the $22 buy-in Phase 3 sees you fight it out for one of the guaranteed $109 seats on Sunday!

You can buy into any Phase that your bankroll allows from $0.01 up to the $22 Phase 3. Which Phase will you begin your quest for Sunday Party glory?

Traditional Sunday Party Satellites

Those preferring a more traditional satellite experience can enter the various Sunday Party Sats running several times per day. Each costs $16.50 to enter, and guarantees between three and 10 seats, although the Mega Sats, which also cost $16.50, guarantee up to 40 seats.

While $16.50 is at the more affordable end of the buy-in scale, there are feeders into these satellites. Sunday Party Sub-Feeders start the ball rolling at the $0.55 level. In turn, these feed into the $3.30 Sunday Party Feeder tournaments, which then put you into the $16.50 buy-in games.

The Sunday Party Structure and Payouts

The Sunday Party shuffles up and deals every Sunday at 7:05 p.m. UK time. Everyone, regardless of them buying in direct or winning their way in, sits down with a generous 100,000 starting stack. Blinds start at 500/1,000 with a 100 ante, and levels span 12 action-packed minutes.

Late registration remains open until the completion of Level 12, at this point, the blinds are 2,000/4,000/500a, meaning you still have a 25 big blind to wield. Up to three re-entries are allowed while late registration is open, so it makes sense to try to win several $109 Sunday Party seats.

The table below shows the impressive blind structure up to Level 12, which is when late registration closes.

Level	Small Blind	Big Blind	Ante
1	500	1,000	100
2	500	1,000	125
3	550	1,100	135
4	600	1,200	150
5	700	1,400	175
6	800	1,600	200
7	900	1,800	225
8	1,000	2,000	250
9	1,250	2,500	315
10	1,5500	3,000	375
11	1,750	3,500	450
12	2,000	4,000	500

The Sunday Party is a two-day event, where the curtain comes down on Day 1 when only 16 players remain in contention for the title. Day 2 commences at 8:05 p.m. UK time on Monday, continuing until one player has all the chip in play in their stack.

Typical Sunday Party Payouts

In early September 2023, some 1,026 players bought into the Sunday Party, including the PokerNewsAmbassador Lukas "Robin Poker" Robinson. At the end of Day 1, Robinson found himself third in chips with 16 players remaining, improving to the chip leader by the time only the final table of eight remained.

With bounties included, everyone at the final table won at least $1,404 for their efforts. However, it was Robinson's night, and the popular Liverpudlian came out on top, turning his $109 investment into $13,731 and doing so while streaming his play on Twitch.
