Absolute Poker offers $100k guaranteed weekly

By Sarah Polson

A new year seems to be bringing with it bigger and better promotions from all the major poker sites. Absolute Poker is no exception with the addition of a weekly $100,000 guaranteed tournament that will leave the top player with at least $25,000.

The weekly tournament takes place each Saturday at 4:30 p.m. (EST) and has a $200+$16 buy-in. All the players start with 5,000 in chips and spots 2-54 split the remaining $75,000 of the prize pool.

There are also freerolls, real-money qualifiers and satellites that run daily through which players can win their way into the $100,000 event.

The top three players of the $100K daily freerolls will automatically advance to the weekly event. All players at the poker site receive one entry into a daily $100K Qualifier freeroll and then must earn 50 points before they are eligible again.

The daily satellite qualifiers will get players into a daily real-money qualifier. They vary in cost and the amount of players that will move on. The daily real-money qualifiers will get players into the $100K event.

Once a player has qualified for the weekly guaranteed tournament, their name will appear in the lobby of the $100K Weekly.

Adding to the excitement and opportunities to get more cash, the $100K weekly will feature pros such as Michael Mizrachi making guest appearances. Players who knock the pro out of the tournament will receive a bounty jackpot.
