Taking down a large-field GPP (Guaranteed Prize Pool) with 20,000+ entrants and a $50K+ top prize requires sharp strategy — particularly if you can’t max-enter. This guide breaks down a winning approach, drawing from historical trends, optimal lineup construction tips, salary usage patterns, and game theory principles tailored to small entry players.
