Gear up for the $100k Big Bang at Betsson Poker – everyone else is!
As the new month is about to start so members of the Betsson Poker online poker community are getting themselves ready for the race of the month with the special $100k Big Bang poker race. This is being dubbed the biggest poker race in the history of Betsson Poker and it's easy to see why.
The Big Bang poker race is actually 5 races offering a collective prize pool of $100,000 to the members of the online poker community shrewd enough to be taking part. The four weekly races run on the following dates:
Race 1: March 7th to 13th
Race 2: March 14th to 20th
Race 3: March 21st to 27th
Race 4: March 28th to 3rd.
In addition to these weekly races there is an overall race being run by the online poker site running from March 7th through to April 3rd. The prizes remain consistent over all the weekly races. The first place winner of each race will walk away with a cool $1,600 cash prize, but players even as low as 100th place will also get a cash reward from the online poker site.
The cash prizes aren't all Betsson Poker will be giving away however; they are also giving away LIVE POKER prizes. Should you be the highest points earner on any particular day of the $100k Big Bang you will have won yourself a Live event Online Final Tournament ticket. These tickets are worth $320 and should you win more than one of them you are invited to swap it for $300 in cash. The highest weekly winners will win themselves the buy-in for the GSOP Live event in Seville worth $3,300. If any member of the online poker community manages to win 3 out of 4 of the weekly races Betsson Poker will reward them with a Live Poker package for GSOP Live season 2!
Earning points for the $100k Big Bang is easy, all you need to do is play. You earn points at Betsson Poker on all cash games, so the more you play the higher you'll climb on that leaderboard.
