Buy-Ins:

  • $120 dollar buy-in and $50-dollar re-buys for the first 4 rounds of play. After the 4th round players cannot buy-in to play this event. This event will have several more rounds until it is completed on the final table of play. (Number of additional rounds is not specific.  Number to total rounds will depend on how players get knocked out of play before they finish).
  •  $20-dollar add-on for $25,000 in chips at the first timed break (which is after 2 hours of play) in the tournament.

Guarantee Prize Payout:

  • Requires a minimum of 8 players to start the guarantee.
  • The Guarantee prize payout will be $1,000 for every ten players (this applies to amounts of 20 players = $2,000, 30 players = $3,000, 40 players = $4,000 or 50 players = $5,000 – only)
  • Any number of players below the 8 will have no guarantee amount payout, but will pay only the amount of the buy-ins and re-buys minus the house fee.

  • We will collect $7 dollars from each tournament player’s buy-in for the Poker Tournament Players Monthly Qualifier Tournament(s) and the Tournament Players Anniversary Qualifiers Tournament in March 2023. By doing this we will offer the tournament players a seat in every/or any Monthly Qualifier Tournament(s) from January 2022 to March 2023 plus, if they finish in any one of these monthly events in the top five payout spots, they will be qualified to play in the Tournament Players Anniversary Qualifiers Tournament in March 2023.

Chopping or Splitting of the Prize Pool Money & why players may choose the option – Tournament Rules:

  • The reason tournament player(s) might want to Chop or Split the prize pool money is they may want to have a choice of dividing the prize pool money at an even amount or in a larger group of final players, as they feel that if they don’t make a deal to chop the money, then they might not get any money if they happen to be the next player to get knocked out of the tournament. (example – A tournament with 44 entrants and a prize pool of $2,500 dollars, and if there are 10 player still playing on the final table, based on the payout formula above that the top 7 players will receive money then the next 3 players (Player(s) number(s) 10, 9 and 8 to get knocked out will not receive any money), but if those final 10 players decide to chop or split the prize pool money and end the tournament at that moment then everyone at the final table will receive a payout.

Tournament payouts are pre-set:

  • If no players ask(s) or want to organize a chopping or splitting of the prize pool money then the tournament continues on until the payouts are completed as pre-determined above (see Prize Structure chart).
  • If some player(s) ask or want to organize a chopping or splitting of the prize pool money, but if anyone of the final player(s) decides that they do (not) want to chop or spilt the prize pool money than the tournament continues on until the payouts are completed as pre-determined above (see Prize Structure chart).
  • Here are all of the rules that will apply when players decide to chop or split the prize pool money:
  • When players decide to make a chop or split of the prize pool moneys they may agree to chop or split the amount of money evenly or give more money to some players and or any player they determine to do so based on their chips in play and what the remaining players agree upon. All chop(s) or split deal(s) are witnessed and then approved by the floor supervisor before any deal can be finalized. The floor supervisor does not make the deals for the player, but they ensure that the deal is paid out correctly by what the player(s) agreed upon. All Players Must Agree on the deal to make a deal approved
  • Based on the number of players that entered the tournament, the final tournament players cannot decide to chop the prize pool or split the money until they are (at the final table) of the pre-determined spot(s) to start receiving money. (Example – if there were 44 players that entered into a tournament with a prize pool of $2,500 and the prize pool payout structure calls for the top 7 players to win money (as shown above), then only until they get to 10 players (which is the final table number of players) or less could the remaining player(s) decide/agree to make a deal and chop or split the prize pool money).
  • Once a chop or split has been agreed upon there cannot be a second chop or split for a different portion of money left over. (Example – If the final (10) players wanted to chop or split the prize pool money ((Example of $2,500 of prize pool money)), as the example above, but they wanted to chop or split only some of the money (((Split only $200 each for the 10 players = $2,000, leaving $500 left over))) and play for the rest of the money(((meaning the last player would win the last $500))), then they cannot do that. Only one chop or split per tournament.
