Features of the series
888Poker announced its second summer series this year. This time it will be a full-fledged series with almost a million dollars added.
From July 16 to August 1, 2023, 888 Poker will host the third edition of The Festival Online. More than $888,000 will be paid across 53 events.
- The buy-in ranges from $5.5 to $525, but only one MTT with the minimum entry. The average buy-in is $22, and 27 tournaments will be held simultaneously.
- Half of the prize pool of the festival will be added to three massive events, two of which will be multi-stage. Without considering them, the average guarantee will be about $8,800.
- Most of the events feature a PKO or Mystery Bounty format.
- As usual, the busiest day of the schedule is Sunday.
Reference: The Festival Series was created by Martin Zweigbergk. Its first stage was held in Bratislava in September 2021. Since then, it has been held several times yearly in Eastern Europe and Malta. Its main "feature" is the combination of casino games, sports betting events, and poker tournaments.
