AUTHOR: Jerry "Jet" Whittaker TITLE: Absolute Poker offers $100k guaranteed weekly DATE: 2:07 AM ----- BODY:
The weekly tournament takes place each Saturday at 4:30 p.m. (EST) and has $200+$16 buy-in. All the players start with 5,000 in poker chips and the other top 54 players will split the remaining $75,000 of the prize pool. There are also freerolls, real-money qualifiers and satellites that run daily through which players can win their way into the $100,000 event. The top three players of the $100K daily freerolls will automatically advance to the weekly event. All players at the poker site receive one entry into a daily $100k Qualifier freeroll and then must earn 50 points before they are eligible again. The daily satellite qualifiers will get players into a daily real-money qualifier. They vary in cost and the amount of players that will move on. The daily real-money qualifiers will get players into the $100K event. Once a player has qualified for the weekly guaranteed tournament, their name will appear in the lobby of the $100K Weekly. Adding to the excitement and opportunities to get more cash, the $100K weekly will feature pros such as Michael Mizrachi making guest appearances. Players who knock the pro out of the tournament will receive a bounty jackpot.
