888poker has just launched its very first edition of a Gladiator themed PKO championship — God of the Arena with a 1,000,000 Guaranteed Main Event prize pool. The occasion took place from 11th to 14th October 2018 and buy was just $55.
What’s Progressive Knockout (PKO)?
888poker is just one of the popular poker websites on the planet. Its masterpiece, a Progressive Knockout (PKO) customer was recently released, which is a true success as it had been another long-awaited characteristic of the new 888poker program.
PKO tournaments are these kinds of knockout tournaments where players instantly get rewards for knocking out competition, the reward is wort half their opponent’s cash . Another half is added into player’s bounty, just if other participant eventually knocks him out. The winner collects their own bounty in the long run.
In a PKO championship the participant ’s bounty develops with every player he removes during the championship. PKO championship is the reverse of a routine KO tournaments where every participant ’s bounty is a predetermined amount that doesn’t change throughout the championship regardless of how much they advance.
To celebrate this launch with great funfairs, an exciting God of this Arena poker festival featuring 12 knockout bounty events was run from Thursday 11th October 2018 during Sunday the 14th October 2018. With 100 seats GTD daily and min purchase worth $55, there was a large chance to be part of $1,000,000 God of this Arena Main Event. Much like Gladiators in the early Greece, players were competing for a chair, and fortunately 100 of them, one after another, qualified for a prized seat into the $1,000,000 Main Event.
Each day between 11th and 13th of October, there was a 1M God of this Arena ME Qualifier Freeroll, where the best 100 players won tickets for the Main Event that was a culmination of their effort, almost like a laurel wreath on their heads representing the victory.
All they needed to qualify for the freeroll was to eliminate two competitors in a poker tournament or Sit & Go with at least a $1 buy. Unfortunately, BLAST tournaments were not part of the promotion.
