Poker Room Adds Another Tournament

March 10, 2009

There is one thing that poker players like and that is a good tournament. Tournaments are a great way for poker players to try out their skills by playing a bunch of different people, and they are always very exciting. Some people prefer to simply play hand by hand, not really looking down the road. They don’t like tournaments because they don’t like the level of competition that can come into play at one of them. But others say that there is nothing like a good tournament to give you a quick lesson in humility.

Well, the online poker site PKR, agrees with those that like poker games and have added another weekly tournament for those players that like them. The new tournament is an increase over the old one and will take its place. The popular Sunday Classic poker tournament is now bigger than ever with a guaranteed prize pool of $50,000.

The poker site felt like it was time to step it up a notch after their last one went so well. They had more than 1,000 poker players vying for the top spot of more than $14,000 in a guaranteed prize pool of $30,000. By increasing the amount of money in the pool to $50,000 they know that the top spot will now be worth even more money than before.

The winner is sure to take home a nice chunk of change every week, which is what the poker site had wanted to offer. The buy in is only $65.00 which is really nothing when it comes to a poker tournament that pays out this much. They say that they are already getting back positive feedback from their poker players who are excited about the possibility of winning even more.
