Innovative 3-D online poker room PKR.com today announced the introduction of a new $500 toruanment aimed at experienced players on Saturday nights.
The Saturday Big Shot event will take place at 8 p.m. GMT each and is, the company says, the largest poker tournament of its kind on Saturday evenings on the internet.
Cardroom manager at PRK, Neil Wright, said “ We’re delighted to be able to introduce the Saturday Big Shot. There’s been a growing demand from our players for a big buy-in event with an ultra-playable structure and we’re happy to oblige. It shows just how far we’ve come that Saturday night’s biggest buy-in tournament will be at PKR.”
The tournament will feature a very playable structure with 10,000 stacking stack for each player and 20 minute levels. The final table of each tournament will be filmed and broadcast on PKR TV to over 100 million homes in Europe including Channel 166 on the SKY platform in the UK.
Hopefuls can qualify for the event in daily satellites on PKR.com for as little as $5.06. The tournament will not take place on the last Saturday of each month when the $250 buy-in ‘PKR Masters’ will run instead.
PKR.com also hosts its second PKR Live event this April at London’s Loose Cannon Club.
