The much-anticipated Bodog Poker $250,000-guaranteed event is coming up this Sunday, and Bodog is giving CardPlayer.com readers two shots at a cheap seat in the event. The site is hosting two CardPlayer.com-exclusive tournaments this Friday and Saturday — an $11 rebuy and an $11 freezeout, respectively — and both tournaments feature an overlay of three seats to the $250,000-guaranteed tournament for a total of six seats (at $270 apiece), which equates to $1,620 in overlays. Get money on Bodog soon to make sure that you can take advantage of these exclusive tournaments.
The rebuy tournament begins at 8:05 p.m. ET this Friday. It has a buy-in of $10+$1 and a 2,000-chip starting stack. Unlimited $10 rebuys are allowed through the first break for 2,000 more in chips. At that break, a final $10 add-on is allowed for 4,000 in chips. The prize pool will be distributed in addition to the three seats given to the final three players (the seats are not taken out of the prize pool). The event is called the Card Player $250K Rebuys Qualifier, and can be found by opening the Bodog software, clicking on the “Scheduled Tournament” tab and then the “Daily” tab, and then selecting the “Private” radio button. The password to register is “3seatrebuy” (all lowercase).
The other qualifier is a freezeout tournament that begins at 4:05 p.m. ET on Saturday. The buy-in is $10+$1 and the event has starting stacks of 2,000 in chips. Like the rebuy, all money from buy-ins is distributed in payouts in addition to the three overlayed $250,000-guaranteed seats. The three finalists in the event snag the seats. The event is called the Card Player $250K GTD Qualifier, and can be found by opening the Bodog software, clicking on the “Scheduled Tournament” tab and then the “Daily” tab, and then selecting the “Private” radio button. The password to register is “lastchance” (all lowercase).
The $250,000-guaranteed event itself takes place this Sunday at 4 p.m. ET (taking the place of the regularly scheduled $100,000-guaranteed event for this week). The $250,000-guaranteed tournament, which has a buy-in of $250+$20, is expected to have a huge value, as the normal $100,000-guaranteed event usually has a $25,000-plus overlay (which is larger than the first-place prize in the event).
New Bodog members are eligible for a 110 percent Bodog signup bonus from Card Player. Existing members can take advantage of the normal 100 percent reload bonus on the site.
