To follow up Hot Seat Mondays, our next cash game promotion will be spreading the action around the room. On Tuesdays, instead of turning things up, we’re going to make it rain down… cash! Cash Splash Tuesdays will give lots of players a chance to get their share of the added value because instead of just one winner every 30 minutes, three No Limit Hold’em tables will be randomly selected every 20 minutes to be part of the cash splash! That’s right, we will be splashing $50 on three different tables, three times an hour! Cash Splash Tuesdays will have our No Limit Hold’em players wallowing in chips. Tune in tomorrow to see what Wednesdays have to offer!

Jackpots aren’t only for festivals!
Just because there are a lot of Jackpots hit during big poker festivals doesn’t mean that’s the ONLY time they are won. A regular Wednesday night is clearly a fine time for a Jackpot as well – just ask the players on Table 3 in the Original poker room. The table was full and the button was on seat 5 when the action began. The player in seat 6 had just sat down and chose to buy the button, putting in the small and big blinds, and the cards were dealt. The first two players to act both folded, and then Mohamad A in seat 9 limped in. After one more fold, the remaining players all called and there was a check to close the preflop action. The flop was dealt with 6 players still in the hand. Flop: Action checked around on the flop, and then the turn was […]

Multi-table tournaments on partypoker are getting better!
As a player, joining the partypoker community comes with a big advantage: your voice is heard! On social media and at partypoker LIVE events, players have been talking about certain features of the online tournament structures that do not contribute to a viable poker ecology, and partypoker was listening. This feedback was digested and is now leading to some very positive changes. These changes started making their way to the partypoker felts last Sunday, and will continue to be gradually implemented throughout the month of August until the whole tournament schedule – the Power Series – is revamped. The changes: All bounty tournaments become freezeouts Far fewer permitted re-entries on most MTTs No re-entries on Fast and Turbo events Reduced late registration periods (maximum 2 hours) “Smooth” structure implemented (maximum 10% cost-per-round increase) The obvious and positive consequence will be in the average tournament duration. The reduced re-entries and late […]
