Players on 888poker now have a new tournament collection to enjoy! Old school tournaments such as Dragon, Monsoon, and the BIG Fish will now become a thing of the past at the online poker site as the revamped schedule features a fresh lineup of tourneys that offer bigger prizes, and are friendlier to recreational players.
Six Tournament Types, Over $500K in Guarantees Every Week
888poker’s new tournament collection features six tournament types designed to level the playing field. They are basically shorter tournaments, with more players finishing in the money. Entry fees are also more affordable, and players get to choose from a wide variety of formats, including PKO, deepstack, turbo, freezeout, and 6-max. Re-entries are also limited, which will benefit the recreational players.
The new tournaments on 888poker are the following:
“The Big Shot” tournaments carry the biggest prize pool and serves as the main event of the day. If you want to win big in a single tournament, these are the ones for you.
If you are into old-school poker, you might want to try 888poker’s “The Classic” tournaments which are played in freezeout format and with shorter late registration.
Fans of fast-paced action will enjoy “The Dash” – they are turbo tournaments that allow players to build their stack as quickly as possible.
If you love 6-max, then “The Mayhem” is for you. You can expect less waiting and more action when playing these tournaments.
“The Rumble” is for PKO fans who like the bounty element. Eliminate as many opponents as you can to accumulate bounties which are yours to keep, whether you end up winning or losing the tournament.
If you like to simply sit back, take your time, and enjoy the experience “The Voyage” deepstack tournaments are perfect for you.
These different tournament types are spread out across the daily (Monday – Saturday) and Sunday schedules. For the daily schedule, the buy-ins range from as low as $8.80 to $109. They are classified into Low, Mid, and High tiers. You can win a share of at least $3,000 in guarantees, $20,000 being the highest.
Big prize hunters should consider freeing up their schedules during Sundays as the biggest-guaranteed tournaments take place on that day. Again, entry fees are categorized into Low, Mid, and High, starting at $5.50. The Sunday schedule features Big Shot tournaments, and the main highlight is the Main Event which has a buy-in of $109 and a guarantee of $150,000.
888poker is planning to add more tournaments and prizes soon, so expect the schedule to become busier in the weeks and months ahead.
