Bodog Giving Away Seats to $100k Guaranteed!

By dhubermex

On Tuesday, Bodog announced that it will be giving away seats to its flagship $100k Guaranteed Sunday major tournament to PocketFives.com members. Beginning on Saturday, May 3rd, P5's members will be able to enter a weekly satellite tournament that will feature at least 10 added seats to the next day's $100k Guaranteed tournament.

Today, Monday, May 26^th, Bodog announced they will be extending the weekly satellites to include the last weekend in May. The event will be named P5's $100K Private Qualifier, and the password to the satellite tournament is sendit. The final satellite tournament will take place at 4:05 ET on Saturday, May 31^st.

Known for being one of the greatest values in online poker, the Bodog $100k Guaranteed weekly tournament regularly boasts an overlay of over $20,000 in added prize pool money; with overlays often surpassing $30k, or 30% of the total prize pool. The weekly satellite tournaments, available to all PocketFives.com members, will last a total of five weeks, beginning with the 10-Seat-Added tournament this Saturday (a total prize pool value of $1,090).

Each subsequent satellite tournament will give away between 10-40 seats, depending on the number of entrants from the previous week's satellite tournament. For every 25 entrants, Bodog will add ANOTHER seat in the following week's private satellite. For example, if participation in the first week's event is 250 players, then the second week's event will have 20 added seats (10 + 250/25 = 10 + 10 = 20). If the second week's event has 500 players, then the third week's event will have 30 added seats (10 + 500/25 = 10 + 20 = 30).

The events will be named P5's $100K Private Qualifier, and the password to each satellite tournament is sendit. They will take place at 4:05 ET on each of the first four Saturdays in May.

Anyone who has yet to sign up for an account is encouraged to sign up here for Bodog and participate in yet another exclusive opportunity for P5'ers. Good luck to all PocketFives.com members in the Bodog $100k seat giveaway!

	Marbleboy said: Are you guys for real? Why would you wan tmore players, it just makes for a bigger field which in turn makes it harder to get in the cash!! idiots! April 30, 2008 9:05 PM
	13swan said: look guy, the more people signing up, the more free seats they give away the following week asshole! April 30, 2008 10:55 PM
	chatoman said: I played last week in the 100k and there was a 30k overlay, so i hope we get a huge crowd today to get as many seats as we can for next week May 3, 2008 3:50 PM
	BertieWooster said: I've never had a problem getting a cashout, although it sometimes takes a long time, like 5 weeks this time. I wouldn't worry about them going broke, they are a billion dollar company which makes most of its cash on gaming/sports bettors. May 7, 2008 1:24 PM
