The Hive Series on BetPlay.io: 28 Days, $100,000 Guaranteed and a Battle for the Crown

The defining feature of The Hive Series is its colony competition system. From the moment the series kicks off on April 27, every player on BetPlay.io is automatically assigned to one of four Hives and begins earning points for their team through every tournament they enter.

There is no registration, no opt-in and no minimum stake required. Points feed into each Hive's running total automatically via HPN's existing leaderboard engine, meaning a $1.10 Hyper Turbo grinder and a $55 High Roller specialist both contribute to the same colony score. The Hive with the highest combined total at the close of May 24 wins the series and claims bragging rights as the strongest colony on the network.

Each of the four Hives runs its own weekly leaderboard with cash paid out every seven days:

The series finale on May 24 is invite-only:

The $100,000 guarantee is spread across a daily schedule of more than 20 tournaments, covering every format and stake level from freerolls to $55 High Rollers.

The daily High Roller escalates in buy-in and guarantee every day of the week, rewarding players who maintain volume from Sunday through Saturday.

Alongside the leaderboard competition, eight challenges run simultaneously across the 28-day series. Rewards range from satellite tickets and Spin entries through to full $55 Main Event seats.

No action is needed to enter. Players on BetPlay.io are automatically enrolled in the Hive competition from April 27 onward. Every tournament played feeds points to the assigned Hive, every cash earned moves a player up their colony's leaderboard, and every week brings a fresh shot at the Weekly Queen crown and a Coronation Tournament seat.

The Hive Series is open to all players regardless of stake preference. Whether the goal is topping the colony leaderboard, completing the challenge set or simply taking a shot at the $1,000 Coronation final, The Hive Series runs from April 27 to May 24 exclusively at BetPlay.io.
