28 September 2009 - Next-gen online poker room PKR.com has released details of its 2009 Oktoberfest poker festival which will see ten tournaments played over as many days starting October 15.
A range of events have been scheduled to ensure variety and that every kind of player is catered for. Favourite formats such as Deep stack, Double Chance and the Terminator Bounty return to the roster while this year also sees the introduction of new events including Omaha Hi/Lo and re-buy tournaments plus the exclusive ‘Ante Special’ tournament.
The festival culminates in a variable freeroll where players get more chips added to their starting stack for every Oktoberfest tournament they take part in, meaning the more they play, the bigger their starting stack will be.
Cardroom Manager Neil Wright said, “This year’s Oktoberfest is even more accessible than ever with extremely affordable buy-ins. We’ve decided to run the festival alongside our new Primetime tournaments which have proved to be hugely popular, so now players can get the great value of Oktoberfest events and also have a shot at another top tournament – all in the same night.”
Satellites for each Oktoberfest tournament can be found on the day of the event in the PKR.com lobby.
