The PokerPoker Tour will be back in the United Kingdom in October and they're pledging to bring live poker back to every day players with lower buy-ins, less rake, and zero hidden fees snatched from the prize pool.
The tour will set up at Resorts World in Birmingham, where the venue will host its first major poker festival in five years. A schedule of 21 events is led by three guarantees — with the entire prize pool going straight to the players.
No fees, low rake
PartyPoker Tour UK has cut admin fees and other hidden leaks from the prize pool, guaranteeing that every bit of every buy-in goes straight to the winners. Rake will also be driven as low as possible, slicing out just enough to pay the staff.
PartyPoker Tour Birmingham guarantees
- Mini Main Event (£150 buy-in, £50K guaranteed)
- Main Event (£500 buy-in, £100K guaranteed)
- PLO Masters (£250 buy-in, £20K guaranteed)
Over 1,000 online qualifiers will be on offer via the PartyPoker platform with a chance for players to earn a seat in freerolls or satellites for as low as £.20.
