Now more BIG overlays. Oh well. They got popular out of nowhere. Pokerroom started offering tickets to the tourneys for player points and boom! Everyones playing in them now.
I got $750 for getting 1st on the leaderboard, and entry to the Coliseum tourney (top 10 from leaderboard play for $1500 winner take all). | | Static Link |

However, for the $5 tourneys you pay an extra .25 and for the $10 ones you pay an extra .50. The extra fee goes to the prize pool which is split towards the top 3 in the leaderboard and the top 10 leaderboard tourney. The guaranteed prize pool is $3k and that will be an overlay. | | Static Link |

Would have been me if I'm in the tourney
Kidding - congrats!
Could you explain the buy-in structure of this Centurion Cup tourney? I did read the terms but am not sure I understand it correctly. Is it somewhere in the neighborhood of $10 per table multipled by 100?
Pokerroom.com is where I first started out my online poker life, so Im still fond of the site. | | Static Link |

Once it gets to 60 it fills ups quick. The point system does reward people who play more in a way, but someone can just get about 3 good finishes and be in the top 10. They've had about 14 tounreys this week. I should finish 8th. | | Static Link |

They would have been better off if they had made them 50 people tourneys or a different point system and had scheduled tourneys. Anyway, I want to play a bunch of these so you guys go register right now.

The Bonus Pool is generated by a percentage of the fee players pay to enter each Centurion 10-table tournament and does not in any way affect regular payouts.
1. After each week of intense 10-table battles, half the bonus pool will be awarded to the top three finishers on the Leaderboard.
