Last Chance to Qualify for PartyPoker World Open VQualifiers for PartyPoker World Open V End on Sunday |
|
The PartyPoker.com World Open V will run from Oct.11 to 15 at the Palm Beach Casino in Mayfair, London, and this Sunday is the last chance to qualify at the site for a package to the event.
The packages are worth $13,000 including the buy-in, seven nights accomodation, plus $1,000 spending money.
The last $650 + $50 buy-in main satellite kicks off on Sunday at 2.15 p.m. (ET) and there are two packages guaranteed.
If this sounds a little pricey, there are still daily qualifiers for as little as $3, and also a satellite everyday into Sunday’s main-only satellite at 2.25 p.m., however on Sunday this starts at 12.55 p.m. and is speed.
Not all 48 players have been confirmed, but those who will definitely be making a play at the $250,000 top prize include Mike Sexton, Daniel Negreanu, Johnny Chan, Tom Dwan, Luke Schwartz, November Niner James Akenhead, Neil Channing, Marty Smyth, Roberto Romanello, Jennifer Tilly, and Andy Black.
The new PartyPoker grassroots team will also be there — Remy Biechel, Felipe Ramos, Ian Frazer, and Bodo Sbrzesny.
This year there have been some changes such as triple the starting stacks, eight-seat tables for the heats, and seven for the final. The total prize pool is $480,000, and the event will be covered on worldwide television.
Elsewhere at the site, there is so much going on. The Cash Machine continues, which sees points turn into cold hard cash if a player earns a minimum of 10 PartyPoints on at least 10 days between Sept. 1 and 28, meaning there is still time left to make some extra money. Another way to do this is via the site’s new leader board promo which will see $30,000 distributed to players across two monthly and two weekly competitions.
Not forgetting also that PartyPoker.com is the new sponsor of The World’s Strongest Man competition which takes place in Malta next month – players from the UK, Russia, Poland, Denmark, Finland, and Sweden have one more chance to win a luxury trip to the event worth €1,500 in a €100 buy-in tournament at 8 p.m. (BST) this Sunday.
