For poker players in New Jersey, partypoker is offering a special network wide series where players can take part in online poker tournament gaming. Titled partypoker US Network Online Series, the special option kicked off yesterday and will continue through June 7th. Players can find the action at the Borgata Poker site, partypoker US and BetMGM Poker.
Details of the Series
Players of the series will find 20 events to compete in, with buy-ins starting at an affordable $5. The buy-ins go as high as $320, making every event relatively affordable for most players. Players will find a nice selection of gaming options with daily tournaments on offer throughout the series.
The Main Event is one of the larger tournaments on the schedule, featuring a $320 buy-in and a $75,000 guaranteed prize pool. This event is sure to see a lot of action as players tend to lean towards competing in the Main Event of any series.
Another large tournament on the schedule is the Phased $25,000 GTD. This is a No Limit Hold’em affair with a $10 buy-in. This event will have eight starting flights, one taking place each day of the series. Because of the many starting flights, it would not be surprising to see a large turnout which could lead to an increase in the prize money awarded. The Day 2 of this event will not play out until June 7th, which is the last day of the series.
Players can choose to keep playing in the $10 starting flights to reach Day 2. Or, they can choose to pay $535 and buy-in directly to Day 2.
This partypoker US Network Online Series comes just after the site offered a similar option earlier in the month. Just over 5,300 entries were placed with more than $350,000 provided over a total of 21 events. This new version is sure to be just as successful.
Large Player Turnouts
Events like the partypoker US Network Online Series are popular among players because people are looking for entertainment. In the US as well as abroad, people are stuck indoors due to the coronavirus pandemic. With stay at home orders in place or people worried about contracting the virus, more individuals are at home and want to experience some form of entertainment.
Big online poker providers like partypoker have created such events as the Online Series to provide gamers with more options than traditional cash games and tournaments. Players are hungry for entertainment so having options like the Online Series is just one way they are able to stay busy.
It will be interesting to see by the end of the week just how successful party will be with this latest installment of the Online Series. There is no doubt that players will compete and we should most likely see guaranteed prize pools increase as players vie for a chance to the be the last one standing in each event.
This series is open to players in New Jersey only via the three available online poker sites across the partypoker network.
