Classic Rescheduled, Qualifier Incentives Increasede
Body:
Ongame Network has announced the rescheduling and expansion of
the Ongame
Network Poker Classic [ONPC], expanding the opportunities
for players to participate in the record-breaking tourney with
a guaranteed prize pool of $5 million, with a million guaranteed
to the event's final champ. The addition of several new sites
to Ongame is one of the reasons for the revision, and a $50,000
freeroll for early qualifiers has also been tossed into the incentives
mix.
Along the lines of several popular 'online to exotic final table'
championships, the ONPC is a "flight" tournament that
will begin online across all Ongame sites on November 4, and play
down until the 45 players remain. Four weeks later, those 45 players
will then be transported to one of Europe's premier casinos, the
Casino de Barcelona, where their electronic chip stacks will be
translated into real-life equivalents, and the lion's share of
the $5 million prize pool will be awarded, with the winner crowned
sometime on December 3rd.
Players can purchase directly into the ONPC for $5,000 (plus
$200), or can qualify through any of several satellite methods
on the Ongame Network sites. Those who satellite in and secure
their seats before midnight ET on September 2 will also qualify
for the just-announced $50,000 bonus freeroll, which starts at
4:00 p.m. ET on September 3. The single- and multi-tiered satellite
qualifiers, both single- and multi-table as well, offer chances
as inexpensive as a single dollar, a great opportunity at almost
no cost.
