Blinds: | 25 Minutes |
Starting Stack: | 20k |
Late Entry: | 9 Levels (~9:15 pm) |
Day 1 Ends: | One-Day Event |
The side game on Monday night is the Progressive Knockout game. Unlike the traditional bounty games, in this one half the bounty gets added to a player’s head. Players start the day with a $200 bounty and when they knock out a player, $100 will go into their pocket while the other $100 gets added to their own bounty, putting them at $300 when they get knocked out.
The game starts with 20k chips for 25-minute levels and players will have 9 levels of late entry before the desk shuts down tonight. That should put the final chance to buy in at about 9:15 PM tonight.
After that it will be a race to the ring with the game scheduled to finish late Monday night. I likely won’t be watching this one very closely until the very end as I’ll be working on the HORSE and Day 1 of the $1k.
