Welcome to XL Inferno #10 - $150,000 Tune Up Event
Welcome to the XL Inferno #10 - $100,000 Tune Up Event which starts at 7 p.m. BST at 888poker.
Players will start with 50,000 in chips and blinds will increase slowly at every 15 minutes. Blinds start at 150/300 with an ante of 40.
Late registration is open for the 260 minutes during which time players can re-enter up to five times provided they lost all of their chips.
Last year, Preben "prebzzz" Stokan shipped this event for $23,376 when the tournament featured 825 entries and a $100,000 guarantee.
This event will likely bring in even more entries as not only as the buy-in was reduced from $150 to $109 and the guarantee increased 50 percent to $150,000.
