Bodog Poker Open V – Contender Series Opens Up The Field For Everyone
The Bodog Poker Open V is just around the corner and the online poker room has worked hard to ensure that this year’s event is bigger and better than it’s ever been. The 2010 edition of the poker room’s largest series is offering bigger guarantees to players with special bonuses and the chance to play against your favorite Bodog pros as you battle your way to the top. In addition to winning a hefty cash prize and bragging rights, the winners will also be enshrined in the Bodog Poker Open Hall of Fame, where your name will be engraved on a virtual trophy that will be on public view on the Bodog Poker website.
Other online poker rooms give their players only one way to compete in their headline events, but the Bodog Poker Open is truly aimed at all players with two tracks to poker success. The Contender Series is aimed at the average poker player who enjoys the game but doesn’t have a massive bankroll yet. It’s competitive and offers multiple tournaments just like its sibling, the high-roller-friendly Championship Series, but designed for the “Average Joe” who loves the game.
The Bodog Poker Open V tournaments run from September 26th to October 3rd, 2010 with satellites starting on September 1st. These satellites give players the chance to buy in for pennies on the dollar if they’ve got the skills to work their way to the top, and you can even find yourself in multiple events, giving you multiple shots at the main event and the Hall of Fame.
The Contender Series is designed for the player who loves the heat of poker tournament competition, but doesn’t have the bankroll to go all-in with the big boys yet. It kicks off at 4:35PM on Sunday, September 26th with a $10+$1 buy-in on a No Limit Hold’em Tournament. It is followed by a $25+$2.50 No Limit Hold’em Tournament on Monday, September 27th while Tuesday the 28th features a $15+$1.50 No Limit Hold’em Tournament with a six-players-per-table limit.
On Wednesday, September 29th at 8:35PM, there’s a $5+$1 No Limit Hold’em Rebuy Tournament, followed by Thursday’s Pot Limit $20+$2 Tourney. Friday, October 1st has a $15+$1.5 Limit Tournament starting at 8:35pm. Saturday, October 2nd at 4:30 PM sees the last event before the finale, a $25+$2.50 No Limit Hold’em Turbo Event. Each of the tournaments listed features a guaranteed prize pool of between $1,500 and $7,500.
The finale is held on Sunday, October 3rd at 4:30 PM. It’s a $46+$4 No Limit Hold’em Event with a $15,000 guaranteed prize pool and you can get in on it for even less from the beginning of September thanks to an aggressive satellite schedule that lets everyone get in on the action for less.
For poker players that want to get their shot at big guaranteed prizes but don’t have a big bankroll, the Contender Series offers robust competition and low buy-ins.
