888poker KO Games

The KO Games is nearing a thrilling conclusion at 888poker, with the $200,000 guaranteed Mystery Bounty Main Event capping off what has been another superb series. The $109 buy-in Main Event is completely rake-free, played to a mystery bounty format, and boasts a $200,000 guaranteed prize pool.

At the time of writing, 1,439 players have bought in across the completed Day 1s, meaning another 395 entrants are required if 888poker is to avoid an overlay. Finding almost 400 players for a $109 buy-in tournament on a Monday could be a tall order, which means potentially more value for anyone entering on the final two flights.

Those flights shuffle up and deal at 4:00 p.m. and 6:00 p.m. GMT on November 17. Each spans 20 levels or until only 12% of the field remains. Surviving players then head into Day 2 from 9:30 p.m. GMT, continuing the grind until only the eight-handed final table remains.
