Today’s tournament is Event #7 in the Playground Poker Spring Classic, and even though it has a slightly smaller buy-in than the Million North America or the Second Chance event, it doesn’t mean it’s going to be any less epic!
The tournament is a $500 + $100 + $500 NL Hold’em 50/50 Bounty event. You read correctly – each player in this amazing bounty tournament will be given a $500 Bounty chip that they must cede to the player that eliminates them from the tournament! Not $25, not $100… Five hundred dollars!
If history is a guide, this is sure to be a fantastic tournament. Given the sometimes wild dynamics of any bounty tournament, it’s certain to be one of the most fun events on the schedule as the pressure is amped up by such a huge bounty chip. Not only will the “traditional” prize pool be impressive, but the prizes locked up in players’ bounty chips is HUGE!
This is a one-day event and blinds throughout will be 30 minutes in length and players start with a 25K stack. As is the case for all events with a buy in of greater than $500, late registration will be available through the first 6 levels of the tournament, which means that players have until 2:15pm to join in the fun – and we expect to draw new players right until the end of late reg.
Good luck on the felts!
