PKR has a great scheduled tournament schedule with a lot of low buy-in events and unique tournaments to keep things interesting.  PKR holds many big guarantee tournaments every month, including the $100K Masters and the $50K Sunday Classic.  There are many other tournament varieties and types including bounty tournaments (terminator tournaments unique to PKR), satellite tournaments, second and third chance tournaments, freerolls and more.

Guaranteed Tournaments

Every week PKR holds their $50K guaranteed Sunday Classic tournament with a buy-in of $65 + $6.50 at 2pm EST.  The PKR Masters event is held the last Saturday of every month at 3pm EST.  Even during the week you can find some big prize pools including the “The Open” $12.5K guaranteed with a buy-in of only $24 every day of the week at 2:30pm EST.  The Open is replaced on Wednesdays by the Bounty tournament, which is a $15K guaranteed tournament where you can earn an extra $100 for every PKR sponsored bounty player you knock out.

Terminator Tournaments

Terminator tournaments are PKR’s take on bounty tournaments and they have become very popular amongst PKR players.  In terminator tournaments a certain proportion of each players buy-in becomes a bounty on their head.  The percentage is usually 50%, but this can change depending on the tournament.  The twist with PKR’s terminator tournaments is that when you knock a player out, you earn only a portion of their bounty and a portion adds to your bounty.  This means that the bounties become larger and larger as the tournament progresses.

PKR also has some special terminator tournaments, such as the terminator two, which is a heads up multi-table tournament where your entire buy-in is on your head, and when you defeat your opponent you win a portion of his bounty and a portion adds to your bounty for the next match.

Satellites

PKR holds a ton of satellite tournaments into their big guaranteed events and many super satellites to their live tournament satellites.  You will be able to find a satellite tournament that is well within your budget because PKR has satellites of all buy-in levels.  For example you can satellite into the PKR $100K Masters event for under $1.

Rebuy Tournaments

PKR runs a lot of rebuy tournaments, which give you a chance to still compete for a prize even if you bust early on.  PKR also has some unique rebuy tournaments called second and third chance tournaments.  In these tournaments you can choose to divide your stack into 2 or 3 stacks to use in case you bust in the tournament.  Of course the smartest way to play these tournaments is to use your entire stack right from the start, but if you are a good short stack player, maybe having a short stack all the time is what you need to succeed.

PKR has a very strong and fun tournament schedule with a lot of unique features which help to keep PKR’s tournaments, newer and fresher than the tournaments of a lot of other poker rooms.  You should make sure you use a PKR bonus code when signing up at PKR in order to receive the PKR bonus that is right for you.
