The guarantee of €17,000 will be paid in full.
The main attraction of the tournament will be the €17,000 guarantee. The guaranteed amount will be paid out in full, making it the highest guaranteed one-day poker tournament in central Slovakia.
Saturday CHALLENGER Zvolen 20K will offer an attractive opportunity not only to regular visitors to Zvolen poker tables, but also to players from other cities and regions.
Starting stack 35,000 chips and comfortable levels
Each participant will receive a starting stack of 35,000 chips for a €100 buy-in. The opening levels will last 25 minutes, giving players plenty of time to play patiently, build their stacks, and make thoughtful decisions.
In a later phase, the levels will be shortened to 20 minutes and the tournament will gradually gain more momentum.
Registration open for the first 12 levels
There is no need to join the tournament at the exact start time. Registration will remain open for the first 12 levels , allowing players to join the tables later.
However, the biggest space for play will be given to those who come to the introductory level and start with a complete starting stack from 18:30. Another undeniable advantage of an early start will be the free dealer add-on.
Unlimited re-entry will offer additional options
Saturday CHALLENGER Zvolen 20K will be played in an unlimited re-entry format. Players will be able to re-enter the tournament during open registration after being eliminated.
Even an early elimination does not necessarily mean the definitive end of the poker evening and the fight for a share of the guaranteed €17,000.
Free catering and refreshments
Rebuy Stars Zvolen also thinks about the comfort of the participants. During the tournament , free refreshments and catering will be prepared for the players so that they can fully concentrate on the action at the poker tables.
