Tonight’s event in the Playground Poker Spring Classic presented by partypoker.net is Event 8, a $300 + $30 NL Hold’em Survivor tournament. Action gets underway at 7:00pm.
The Survivor format has quickly become one of the best-loved events in a Playground Poker Club festival’s schedule. The format is a little bit different than a regular poker tournament. Instead of playing down to a winner, play continues until 10% of the field remains – at which time play is halted and everyone still in the event gets an even share of the prize pool!
In a way, it’s similar to a satellite tourney – except that the prize at the end is cash!
A Survivor event such as this one, with a $300 + $30 buy-in, is certain to give the winners a very nice prize at the end of the night – and because play doesn’t continue through the bubble, the pace of the event – and its finishing time – is sure to be very appealing as well!
Registration tonight is open until the end of the break following level 4, which is to say it’s open until 8:35pm.
