Tonight is going to be a night full of action at Playground Poker Club. While the $250 Frenzy plays down from 27 players to a Champion, and the $550 6-Max continues to its conclusion as well, another large group of players will take their seats in Event #7, a $150 + $30 + $150 NL Hold’em 50/50 Bounty tournament.
The name says it all – the 50/50 Bounty puts $150 of a player’s buy-in into the “traditional” prize pool while another $150 is represented by a Bounty Chip that a player must surrender to the opponent who eliminates him or her from the tournament.
Over the years, this format has proven to be extremely popular at Playground Poker – not only will there be a huge “normal” prize pool, but it only takes 2 eliminations to effectively put a player into a freeroll situation in which they’ve already made back their buy-in.
Players tonight will start with 20,000 tournament chips and play through 20 minute levels straight through until the end in the early hours of the morning. Action gets underway at 7:00pm and late registration will be available until 8:30pm.
Good luck!
