Big guaranteed prize pool tournaments are great; but they’re even better when they have a tiny buy-in. That’s exactly the situation with the Poker770 PokerNews Showdown.
The Poker770 PokerNews Showdown is less than 2 months away and with a guaranteed prize pool of $25,000 the whole online poker community is sitting up and taking notice. The real pull of the PokerNews Showdown however doesn’t lie just in it’s guaranteed prize pool, but rather is related to the buy-in. Despite the large guaranteed prize pool, the online poker site is running the Poker770 PokerNews Showdown with a buy-in of just $7 + $0.70. It doesn’t end there though; whilst the PokerNews Showdown will take place on October 28th at 9 pm, there are qualifiers running right now.
You might ask, how could qualifiers run for such a low buy-in tournament? It would be a good question, and one with an excellent answer. The online poker site is running qualifiers for the tournament starting at just $0.84, and even qualifiers for free. The free poker play tournaments running every day at the online poker site each award tokens for the PokerNews Showdown. There are daily free poker play tournaments running at 4 pm and additional PokerNews Showdown Freeroll tournaments running on Tuesdays and Saturdays at 11 am.
The PokerNews Showdown will be running at Poker770 in addition to their other major tournaments. For example, Poker770 awards $50,000 in prize pools from freeroll tournaments every single month to members of the online poker community. There are 8 daily freeroll tournaments running at the online poker site with prize pools of up to $200 each, plus a Weekly freeroll with a prize pool of $500.
