The second Survivor Event of the Playground Poker Winter Festival is underway in a few minutes, and this time it features a buy-in of $300 + $30 and a guarantee of $25,000.
The tournament players will have to “survive” until the top 10% of the field remains, at which point the prize-pool will be evenly divided by the remaining players – regardless of their chip counts. This structure resembles that of a satellite tournament, with the primary difference being that a cash prize is awarded rather than a tournament seat.
Fans of this structure will be pleased to know that after tonight’s Survivor Event is a full day of satellites to the $3,200 + $300 partypoker.net WPT Playground. Three satellite tournaments are on the schedule for tomorrow, with 2 seats guaranteed at noon, 2 more seats at 4pm and a huge 15 seats guaranteed at 7pm. Sit and go satellites will be available all day as well.
Late registration for tonight’s Survivor Event will remain open through until the end of the first break, and players therefore have until 8:35pm to buy-in.
See you on the felts!
