GGMillions Tournament Ends in Scandal: Player Banned for Ghosting


The GGMillions tournament with a $10k buy-in ended in scandal after a player was banned for ghosting.

Hinaru, the chip leader at the final table, was banned for ghosting, and his winnings were redistributed to other players. Adrian Mateos won the tournament despite starting with the shortest stack.

Patrick Leonard offered a $1,000 reward for information on ghosting. LinusLLove, the most losing player of the first week, was invited to a VIP game where he successfully called an all-in with 8-high.

I've spent years at the tables — cash and tournaments — and just as long shaping poker copy behind the scenes: room reviews, bonus fine print, tournament notes. At PokerInsider I write the way I wish more sites would: clear structure, honest trade-offs, no hype. Whether you're new or already grinding, I care about what the offer actually costs you — rake, variance, and the fine print — and I treat responsible play as part of the job, not a footnote.
