Three days remaining for poker players to enter the Ongame Network Poker Classic, for the chance to win their share of more than a million dollars in this tournament with both offline and online finals.
So far, 231 players are already slated to take part in the $5,000 buy-in tournament, and the prize pool is already at $1,255,000 with a $100,000 added overlay.
The ONCP Online Final is set to start on Nov. 4 at 3 P.M. EST, and will go on until only 45 players remain. The tournament will resume after four weeks in Barcelona, Spain, on Dec 2-3. The 45 finalists will go against each other with the same chip stacks they had when the tournament halted.
Ongame Network will be paying for the players flight expenses, as well as the fees for the hotel. All the Live Final champions are guaranteed a share of the prize pool.
Qualifiers for the ONPC are now taking part in a wide selection of sit-and-go and scheduled poker tournament formats. Players can qualify in the tournaments for as low as $1 and move up through the four qualifier stages or buy-in at levels from $6 to $870.
Players can also buy-in directly to the Online Final, the highest buy-in event ever offered online.
