SportsBook Poker’s Biggest Tournaments only get Bigger

SportsBook Poker’s Biggest Tournaments only get BiggerSportsBook Poker already holds some of the biggest weekly and monthly poker tournaments in the industry.  But their big tournaments are only getting bigger since both the $100,000 and $250,000 Guaranteed have grown!

For one thing, the $100,000 Guaranteed is no longer the $100k since SportsBook has added $25,000 to the prize pool.  Now it’s known as the $125,000 Guaranteed, and this poker tournament takes place every Sunday at 5:00 pm.  You can buy directly into the $125k Guaranteed for $150 + $12, or you can win a main event seat through the many poker satellites that SportsBook Poker offers.

For just $2 + $0.20, you can play a $125,000 Semi-Final Qualifier R&A tournament.  If you would like to start one step closer to the main event, you can play in a $125,000 Satellite R&A for $7 + $0.70.  You can also play for one of 20 guaranteed seats in the $125,000 Semi-Final for $35 + $2.  All you need to do to find all of these satellites is go to the SportsBook lobby and click on the “Satellite” button.  This will bring up all of the information you need to know about each poker satellite including the date, starting time, buy-in, and amount enrolled.

Doing this will certainly serve you well if you’re planning on playing in the $250,000 Guaranteed.  This tournament is SportsBook Poker’s biggest event and it’s held at the end of each month.  The $250,000 Guaranteed has become so popular that the prize pool often exceeds $300,000 with the winner taking home over $60,000!

If you are interested in playing in the $250k, a good route to take is the $250,000 Semi-Qualifier R&A; these tournaments only cost $3 + $0.30 to enter and they are held every day.  The $250,000 Satellite R&A is another cheap option since it only costs $10 + $1 and starts you out closer to a $250k seat.  Of course, the closest satellite is the $250,000 Semi-Final Satellite where 1 out of every 5 players will win a main event seat; this costs $52 + $3 to enter.

If you’re looking for one more huge tournament to play in at SportsBook, the $50,000 Guaranteed is yet another way to win big.  The $50,000 Guaranteed takes place every Sunday at 3:00 pm and a direct buy-in is $100 + $9.  But, just like the $125k and $250k Guaranteed, you can enter these tournaments much cheaper through poker satellites.

The cheapest satellite for the $50,000 Guaranteed is the Semi-Qualifier R&A, which only costs $1 + $0.10.  For those whose bankrolls are a little higher, there is also the $50,000 Semi-Final Satellite where the buy-in is $28 + $2.  One out of every 4 players in these tournaments will win seats to the $50k Guaranteed main event.

To play in all of the big tournaments at SportsBook, and the satellites that are offered for these events, just download SportsBook Poker through PokerWorks.  By downloading the software through PokerWorks, you’ll qualify for a 100% deposit bonus up to $1,000!
