Get in Titan Poker’s $2,500,000 Guaranteed
Jan 17, 2009By: Jeremy Olson There will be plenty of big online poker tournaments in 2009 and some of them are already taking place right now. But very few of these tournaments will match the prize money that will be featured in Titan Poker’s $2,500,000 Guaranteed tourney. In fact, the $2,500,000 Guaranteed poker tournament at Titan will be one of the biggest tourneys of the year!
The $2,500,000 Guaranteed happens on March 8th, 2009 and has buy-ins of $1,500 + $80. Now this might sound like a lot, but you’ve got to realize that 200 players cashed in last year’s $2,500,000 Guaranteed and the winner (apx15) earned $500,000 for taking first place. However, if you can’t afford the $1,580 buy-in, then you can always get in through one of the satellites; some of them are as cheap as $1.20 + $0.10!
Here’s a list of all the satellites and what time they’re held (all times are GMT):
• On Wednesdays and Sundays at 19:35, players can get into the Stage 1 Satellite R/A for $100 + $9. 3 seats are guaranteed to be given out for the $2.5 million tournament and 1 seat will be offered for every $1,580 collected.
• Wednesdays and Sundays also feature a Stage 2 Satellite Turbo R/A at 12:25 and 16:10. The buy-ins are $12 + $1 and the winners will move into the Stage 1 Satellite R/A.
• Every day at 20:50 there is another Stage 2 Satellite Turbo R/A that has a buy-in of $8 + $0.80. The winners of this will also earn seats into the Stage 1 Satellite R/A.
• Every Monday at 19:35 there is a Stage 1 Satellite Freezeout that has a buy-in of $200 + $15. One $2,500,000 Guaranteed seat will be given out for every $1,580 collected and 3 seats are guaranteed in every Stage 1 Freezeout.
• Monday features two different Stage 2 Satellite R/A tournaments at 12:25 and 16:10. The buy-ins for these tourneys are $20 + $2 and the winners will get seats in the Monday Stage 1 Satellite Freezeout.
• Every day at 22:10 there is a Stage 2 R/A Satellite with $12 + $1 buy-ins. Once again, the winners will play in the Monday Stage 1 Satellite Freezeout.
• On Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday there is a Stage 1 Satellite R/A at 19:35. The buy-ins are $25 + $2.50 and one $2,500,000 Guaranteed seat will be given out for every $1,580 collected.
• Titan Poker will also be featuring ongoing Stage 2 Satellite R/A Sit & Go’s which have $2.75 + $0.20 buy-ins. The winners will get seats in the next available $25 + $2.5 Stage 1 Satellite R/A.
• Every Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday there will be a Stage 2 Satellite R/A at 12:25 and 16:10. The buy-ins are $3 + $0.30 and the winners will win seats in the Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday Stage 1 Satellite R/A.
• Daily Stage 1 Satellite R/A tournaments will run at 13:25 and the buy-ins are $11 + $1. The prize is a seat in the $2,500,000 Guaranteed and a minimum of 40 players must participate.
• The cheapest satellites are the previously mentioned $1.20 + $0.10 Stage 2 “1 hand” tourneys. The ongoing Sit & Go tournaments will see the winners advance to the Stage 1 Satellite R/A and there must be a minimum of 10 players entered.
