A monster prize pool was announced by Bodog Poker site, with the main poker tournament awarding $300,000 guaranteed. The total for the eight day poker event will be higher than $650,000, over the course of the fourteen tournament event. The Bodog Texas Hold em event will begin Sunday, September 28th and continues until Sunday, October 5th. The well-known Texas Hold em tournament website will also feature six “Bounty” eliminatories, where the challengers can win $109 in poker credits for each Team Bodog poker participant they eliminate from the poker eliminatories. The most famous poker celebs will be taking on all conteders in the event.

Team Bodog pro, Justin Bonomo, is undeniably psyched about the poker contest. Over the course of his poker playing career, the 23 year old has brought home about $1.4 million. He says that if you had the idea that the first poker tournament was huge, you will definitely be astonished with this year’s Texas Hold em Tournament and the prize money involved. He also challenges anyone that dares to eliminate him from the Bounty Tournament to step forward.

The first Bounty Tournament will be the first Texas Hold em game in the championship on Sunday. Any poker player is able to buy-In directly into this, and any of the other poker events with cash. Or another opportunity is to win their way into the Texas Hold em games through the satellites which are being played every night during the poker championship week. Bodoglife is going to hold six bounty tournaments and seven “Championship Events”, which will feature higher buy-ins and deeper stacks.

Bodog’s tournament will have thirteen events which will lead up to the main poker contest on Sunday, October 5 at 4:00 p.m. E.S.T. This is the championship with a guaranteed $300,000 in cash, despite the number of poker players in the contest. All the poker challengers who decide to enter the main tournament will have to pay $500 for the buy-in and in return will obtain 10,000 in poker chips.
