Bodog Poker Open III Dates Announced
On April 26th, the third Bodog Poker Open will kick off on one of the world’s largest online poker sites. In a similar model to tournaments held on Full Tilt Poker and PokerStars, the newest Bodog Poker Open will feature three buy-in levels.
The Main Event takes place on May 3rd. Leading up to it, the popular event will feature tournaments held as part of the Championship Tournament Series, Mid-Stakes Tournament Series, and Mini-Bounty Tournament Series. Each features a different schedule of events. Overall, players will battle it out in full- and short-handed tables in games such as Limit Hold’em, No Limit Hold’em, and Omaha. In contrast to other sites, Bodog does not guarantee prize pools in its Poker Open. Instead, the site adds money to each prize pool.
Here is a look at the schedule of events that players can look forward to on the popular online poker room, sports book, and casino when the festivities kick off on April 26th:
