PKR adds monthly $75k guaranteed

By Sarah Polson

As more and more players head to PKR to check out the action, the poker site continues to add more features for the players. The latest is a monthly $75,000 guaranteed tournament.

The PKR Masters will take place on the last Saturday each month at 8 p.m. (GMT) and feature the biggest prize pool ever seen on PKR.

With a $75,000 prize pool guaranteed each time, the winner will walk away with at least $18,000 from the tournament. All it takes for a shot at the money is a $250 buy-in, or players can get into daily satellites for the event for as little as $1.28.

"The PKR Masters offers players an exciting new prize pool to aim for in a highly playable format that allows the cream to rise to the top," said Neil Wright, PKR cardroom manager.

When players sit down at the PKR Masters, their buy-in gets them a starting stack of $5,000 in chips. Plus there is a 20-minute clock and broader blind structures that will bring more playability for the tournament according to PKR.

"We're really excited about this and are looking forward to offering players ever increasing guaranteed prize pools as PkR's player base continues to grow," Wright said.
