Players have a shot at some big payouts for a cut-rate buy-in this weekend at 888poker. The site’s Sunday Sale returns to the site on May 23, offering a nice promotion for online poker players.
The promotion brings discounted special buy-ins on three of 888’s popular Sunday tournaments.
888poker offers some bang for the buck
Players will find three tournaments to check out with a chance at some nice prize pools. Here’s a look at the three tournaments offering half-price buy-ins:
- $27.50 Big Shot (normally $55) – $25,000 guaranteed
- $55 Main Event (normally $109) – $150,000 guaranteed
- $265 High Roller (normally $525) – $50,000 guaranteed
The guarantees for each tournament stay the same, offering some plenty of value for players. The Sunday Sale offers a nice day for players looking to raise their stakes a bit.
Freerolls awarding Main Event seats
Players looking for even more value have a chance to grab a Main Event seat without spending a dollar. The Sunday Sale Freeroll satellites will award seats for the Main Event without players having to even buy in.
The site is also offering low-priced sub-satellites and other qualifying events. This allows players a shot at a Main Event seat for a minimum buy-in.
