Today marks a new addition to a festival at Playground Poker Club – an entire day on the Eve of the Main Event devoted 100% to Satellite tournaments.
There are three “open” scheduled events today with a huge 24 seats guaranteed:
- $70 + $10 Re-entry – Thursday August 28th at 12pm, 2 seats guaranteed.
- $100 + $10 Turbo Re-entry – Thursday August 28th at 4pm, 2 seats guaranteed.
- $100 + $10 Re-entry – Thursday August 28th at 8pm, 20 seats guaranteed.
In addition to this there is a private freeroll satellite that will get even more people into the Main! Add to that what are sure to be multiple single-table Sit & Go’s and it’s reasonable to assume that at least 40 to 50 more Main Event seats will be secured at some point between now and 11am tomorrow!
The whole satellite program for this festival has been a huge success. There were over 100 seats won in online satellites, and before the festival started there were another approximately 135 seats awarded in live satellites. Add to that the huge “Win & Go” promotion that ran yesterday and other Sit & Go’s that have run over the past week and it adds up to a fantastic number of Main Event seats that will be occupied by satellite winners – which any poker player knows adds a tremendous value to the tournament overall.
Good luck to everyone today!
