Stay tuned for coverage of all the exciting tournaments on partypoker this evening!
Satellite tournaments are extremely popular in the online poker world because they give players the opportunity to play in events they would not ordinarily be able to afford. Tournament dollar satellites take these tournaments to the next level by giving players the ultimate in flexibility. T$ satellites are available at partypoker.
Tournament dollar satellites play the same way as a traditional satellite but with one key difference. They pay out tournament dollars (T$), hence the name, instead of seats into specific tournaments and events.
This virtual currency gives you more flexibility when it comes to playing in higher stakes tournaments because you can spend them on multi-table tournament entries, to buy into Sit & Go tournaments, partypoker’s jackpot SPINS, and even the site’s online tour events. You can even use T$ to enter more satellites, including satellite dollar satellites!
The Irish Poker Masters KO festival kicked is in full swing and runs until November 23rd. Here are a selection of the tournaments that are on offer between now and then:
Event | Buy-in | Guarantee |

Just 45 remain in Day 1 of Irish Poker Masters KO #05 JP Masters with Patrick Lauber currently leading the field. partypoker ambassador Patrick Leonard (131,750) is still in contention to make Day 2, however he will need to spin it up as he is one of the shorter stacks of those left in the event.
Play will pause when just 20 players remain ahead of Day 2.
Pot Limit Omaha players are often overlooked when it comes to tournament poker. Not at partypoker where the PLO players have some incredible tournaments to get their teeth into: the PLO Daily Legends.
partypoker's Daily Legends tournaments have proven immensely popular for several reasons. They have reduced a late registration period and limited re-entries (usually just a single re-entry) which levels the playing field. They finish at a reasonable hour, too, without compromising the average stack size. They are genius really.
PLO Daily Legends follow in the same vein except they are all Omaha tournaments instead of hold'em. Buy-ins range from the $2.20 Forge and increase to the $55 Chieftain.
Niklas Astedt and Maxim Mamonov have had excellent starts to Day 1B of the Irish Poker Masters KO Online Main Event. Both players have already more than tripled their starting stacks and each have north of 450,000 chips.
partypoker ambassador Monika Zukowicz has also had an enjoyable Day 1B so far, and has a chip stack good enough to put her in the top 20.
Any player who busts in the late registration period, which ends around 11:15 p.m. UTC, can re-enter.
Modern smartphones are the perfect medium to play online poker on, especially now it’s possible to play on partypoker with their excellent mobile poker app.
Online poker sites invest countless hours and dollars into creating the perfect mobile app for their customers, partypoker included.
The partypoker mobile app is almost unrecognizable from a couple of years ago. You can tell from the second you fire it up that so much thought has gone into the latest incarnation.
