Welcome to Day 1 of the 2020 SCOOP Event 33-H: $10,300 NLHE PKO High Roller
Several progressive knockout tournaments have already determined their respective winners during the 2020 PokerStars Spring Championship of Online Poker (SCOOP) and the most expensive one to date will play down to a champion within the next two days. Event 33-H: $10,300 NLHE PKO High Roller will certainly attract some of the biggest names in poker and promises to deliver non-stop action from start to finish thanks to the ever-growing bounty prizes.
Of the $10,300 buy-in, $5,000 are added to the cash prize pool and the second $5,000 are added to the bounty pool. Each time a player is eliminated, 50% of their current bounty is awarded to the player who eliminated them and the remaining 50% is added to that player's bounty.
Since all participants can re-enter twice during the registration period which lasts for 4 hours and 45 minutes, it is technically possible to knock out the same opponent up to three times and sweeten the memories with an instant payday of at least $2,500.
The event comes with a guaranteed prize pool of $1,000,000 and kicks off at 1 p.m. Eastern Standard Time (EST), upon registration a starting stack of 250,000 is awarded. The first 18 levels last 20 minutes each whereas all following levels increase to a duration of 30 minutes each. For every hour played, the 60-second time bank will be topped up by an additional 10 seconds. Players who reach the final table will receive 90 additional seconds in their pursuit of a six-figure cash and the elusive SCOOP title.
Day 1 will play down all the way to the money and then top for the night, all survivors will return the following day at 1 p.m. EST to play down to a champion. You can follow all the high stakes action right here on PokerNews from start to finish!
