Americas Cardroom announces new poker tournament series
19 Aug 2020
"Set your targets and get ready to watch the money snowball in," stated Michael Harris, spokesperson for Americas Cardroom. "There's never been a tournament series like this, featuring all Progressive Knockout tourneys. And there's never been a PKO Main Event this big before. Once again, we're making history. Are you ready?"
A progressive knockout tournament is a new kind of bounty tournament with the prospect for huge bounty payouts. Each player enters the tournament with a bounty on their head. When taking an opponent down, the successful player will win 50% of the target's bounty. The other 50% is then placed on the winner's head.
As the tournament progresses, the size of the bounties grow and grow, making progressive knockout tournaments incredibly lucrative. The further one gets in a tournament, the more bounty money they'll pocket.
With the MO MO MO PKO Tourney Series, players can look forward to hundreds of events featuring over $50 million in prize money, including a multi-day $5 Million GTD 'Carnage' Main Event. That's the biggest PKO tournament in poker history.
