Check out the bounty info tab of the tournaments to find out the number of bounties each player has collected, the amount on all of the remaining players heads and the total amount claimed from bounties.

Terminator Two
This is the heads up form of the terminator tournaments.  Each player has their entire buy-in on their head, and each time you knock out a player you earn a portion of their buy-in and a portion is added to your bounty.  This means the further you get in the tournament the more value each knockout will become.

Terminator Xtreme Sit & Go’s
This is the sit & go version of the terminator tournaments.  Your entire buy-in is on your head and each time you knock a player out you earn a portion of their bounty, and the remaining portion is added to your head.  This means that the more people you knock out, the more others can make from taking you down.

You can find multi-table terminator tournaments running at various times throughout the day at PKR.  The multi-table terminators are usually between $5 and $30.  Bounty tournaments are a ton of fun to play and add a nice little twist to the average old tournament.

Splitting your stack into smaller piles would be good if you are a strong short stack player.  However, the majority of players should still keep their stack intact as one, as this will be the easiest way to win tournaments because the bigger your stack the stronger you are and the more chips you can win.  By splitting your stack you are likely putting yourself at a disadvantage.

Double and triple chance tournaments are not available at any other poker room, so if you want to try them out, sign up at PKR using our PKR bonus code and get the best bonus to use towards these new tournaments.

Some of the tournaments at PKR will have a set number of rebuys allowed, while others will allow unlimited rebuys in a set amount of time.

Rebuy tournaments are a great way to make some good money at poker if you are a good player.   Rebuy tournaments give the fish a chance to put more of their money into the prize pool, which just means more money for the top players .

So check out our PKR bonus code to make sure you get the best initial deposit bonus before you try these rebuy tourneys!

The only way a poker player can cheat in a NL hold’em game is through collusion.  Notice I did not include limit hold’em in that statement because poker bots are very capable playing this the limit variety of hold’em online.  Collusion is when two players play at the same table, sharing information between them, such as their cards and what they are planning to do in their coming turns.  A common collusion strategy is each player betting small amounts when one of the players has a big hand, hoping to string along another player, because the pot increase is minimal each time. 

To repeat though, there is no way to hack into PKR and gain an advantage on the other poker players.  For some reason because the software is more advanced than other sites, people sometimes think that it may not be as safe, but this is not the case. 

PKR is a safe room.  Check out our PKR bonus codes and try it out for yourself.

To start a game of Deal or No Deal, just click on the red “Deal or No Deal” tab in the top left corner of the PKR lobby.  You can play for anywhere from $0.50 to $100. 

How to Play
First of all you will have to pick one of the 26 boxes to be your own box.  The hope is that your box will contain the highest value of all 26 boxes.
Next you must reveal the remaining boxes in chunks of a set number of boxes.  For example at first you will have to reveal 6 boxes, and this number will decrease each time you do not take the Bankers deal.
After you have revealed all the necessary boxes in one turn, the banker will give you an offer to sell your box that you chose at the beginning of the game to him.  If you choose not to sell the banker your box, you must choose more boxes.  This continues until either you take the bankers offer, or you are down to your box and one remaining box.
If you get down to one remaining box you will be given the option to keep your box or switch boxes.  Then whatever you have is what you get.

The bankers offers are based on an average of what values have not been revealed.  This is  game of complete luck and you can even choose to autoplay.  PKR has done a good job with there Deal or No Deal game at it’s a fun novelty to have if you want to take a break from the tables.

If you want to play Deal or No Deal, remember that our PKR Bonus Codes still apply.
