For those new to some of these, Bubble Rush is a fast-paced tournament designed to get players into the money in an hour. After that the hyper turbo<\/strong> format slows down and plays like a traditional<\/strong> tournament.<\/span><\/p>\n

A Progressive Knockout<\/strong> (PKO) is a bounty tournament with some interesting twists. When a player knocks out another, part of that player\u2019s bounty<\/strong> is added to the winning player\u2019s bounty. The events make for some fun, interesting dynamics as player\u2019s bounty increases throughout the tournament.<\/span><\/p>\n

In a Win the Button<\/strong> tournament, the player who wins the pot also gets the dealer button.<\/span><\/p>\n

Players looking for more than just Texas Hold\u2019em<\/strong> are also in luck. Some of the games featured include Pot Limit Omaha<\/strong>, Fusion, Omaha Hi\/Lo, and more.<\/span><\/p>\n

For those new to Fusion<\/strong>, this is a game PokerStars introduced in 2019. The games combined Hold\u2019em and Omaha. Players are dealt two cards and play is like Hold\u2019em before the flop.<\/span><\/p>\n

After that, players receive another card on the flop and then another on the turn. Players have plenty of options in this MicroMillions series.<\/span><\/p>\n
