Day: 1
Welcome To the partypoker US Network Online PKO Series Event #4: $12,000 GTD PKO Bounty Boost
The partypoker US Network Online PKO Series is upping the bounty action with Event #4: $12,000 GTD PKO Bounty Boost beginning Wednesday night at 7:30 p.m. ET.
Featuring a buy-in of $215, the Bounty Boost format is a take on Progressive Knockout Tournaments, with $50 of each player's investment going towards their bounty. Of that initial $50, 30% will be awarded anytime a player is knocked out, while the remaining 70% of the bounty will be added onto the player's head who did the deed. As a result, bounty values are certain to climb at a fast pace throughout the duration of the tournament.
Players begin with starting stacks of 30,000. Levels will last 10 minutes all tournament long, beginning at 150/300 with an ante of 40. Registration will be open for the first two hours of play, closing at the completion of Level 12 (1,600/3,200/400) at approximately 9:40 p.m. ET.
Anybody within the state of New Jersey may compete across any of the three platforms of partypoker US, Borgata Poker and BetMGM Poker.
