The BetMGM Online Series Poker Michigan will now see the second of ten events kick off tonight when $215 Event #2: $20K GTD PKO 8-Max Bounty begins at 8:00 p.m. EST. This is the first Progressive Knock Out tournament slated on the schedule and all runners should be ready for a night of action-packed adventures with some mouth-watering bounties on the line throughout.
A $20,000 guarantee is in place for this tournament and the love of PKO's in the poker community should easily push it past unlike the first event of the series that fell shy. All players will be starting with 50,000 in chips with the first 20 levels being 10-minutes in length and afterword all levels will be 12-minutes longs.
An unlimited re-entry should juice up the prize pool during the 15 level late registration period. All players will be taking a five-minute break at 55-minutes past every hour. The tournament will not halt until an eventual champion is crowned in the second event of the series, taking down some cold hard cash.
