Big, Bigger, Biggest Tourneys
The Daily Bigs are getting a big-money boost during the Carnival of Tournaments, 900 Million Celebration, with more than $2,000,000 in increased guarantees!
There are three levels of boosted guarantees to play for from April 21-27. And if that wasn’t enough, they’re also giving away over $100,000 in random added ticket prizes in the Big, Bigger and Biggest tournaments during the week, plus an extra $100,000 in added prizes in Tourney Number 900 Million.
The Daily Bigs: $2,000,000 in increased guarantees:
The Big: From Monday, April 21-Friday, April 25, The Daily Bigs tournaments will award added prizes, and guarantees will be increased by 50%
The Bigger: On Saturday, April 26, The Daily Bigs tournaments will be renamed ‘Bigger’ and have their guarantees doubled, plus award added prizes
The Biggest: On Sunday, April 27, The Daily Bigs tournaments will be renamed ‘Biggest’ and have their guaranteed prize pools tripled. The biggest of them all will be Tourney Number 900 Million, with a $1,000,000 guaranteed prize pool and $100,000 in added prizes.
What are ‘added prizes’?
Throughout each Big, Bigger and Biggest tourney, random tables will be selected to win a ticket prize, which is added to the regular tournament prizes by PokerStars. The prize is a free ticket matching the buy-in of the tournament you are playing, giving you another chance to enter the same tournament and win. The tables on which players have won a ticket prize will be announced 40 minutes after the start of the tournament, via messaging on the tournament tables, and all ticket prizes will be awarded instantly to the winning players’ accounts. The winning players will also receive an email to confirm any prize won.
The following number of tables will be awarded with ticket prizes in each tournament:
