PokerStars - NAPT: New HighRoller Bounty Shootout

Tags: bounty, napt, pokerstars, shootout, tournament.
Posted on 09 February 2010 by "T".

When NAPT (North American Poker Tour) makes a stop at The Venetian, Las Vegas, PokerStars will try a new type of HighRoller Bounty shootout tournament. The buy-in for the new tournament will be $25,000 of which $5000 will go to the bounty prize pool. In other words, if you knockout a player - you will get $5000. Anyhow, one player from each table (10 players - sit & go tables) will make it to the next table and fight for a piece of the prize pool. PokerStars will give the one who takes home the most bounty's extra $100,000.

According to PokerStars, the pros they have been talking to so far are very positive to the new tournament. And who knows, maybe EPT and WPT will start arranging similar tournaments if the turnout is good at the Venetian?

If only one player from the table will go through it'shigh possiblity that one of the top 10 will have most bounty ^^.
Would be more interesting if like 3 players would go through....
 SuperNoob10/02/2010 09:10:26 GMT
one player from each goes to final table , so unless you reach final table you most probably end up in negative. maybe they shud hav more bounty than prizepool

Pokerstars are making some great promotions, seems like there is no other way but to join them and grab some of their promotions. Blink
