Welcome back to PokerNews's live coverage of the partypoker US Network Online Series with Event #7: $535 Six-Max PKO $25K GTD, set to begin at 7:30 p.m. ET.
All within New Jersey are able to play across the three platforms of partypoker US, Borgata Poker and BetMGM Poker are eligible to compete.
This event is a Progressive Knockout format meaning, $250 of each player's buy-in will go towards the prize pool while the remaining $250 will be placed atop their head as a bounty.
Each time a player is knocked out, half of their bounty will be awarded to their assailant while the other half will be added to that player's own total bounty.
Starting stacks are 75,000 with blinds beginning at 150/300 and an ante of 40. Anyone who is knocked out will have the opportunity to re-enter as many times as they wish through the first 15 levels of play.
Levels are set to last 10 minutes each through the first four hours of play, meaning two-and-a-half hours of late registration will be available for all who wish to enter after play begins. From that point, blinds increase to 12 minutes for the rest of the tournament.
A detailed look at the betting structure is provided below.
