Unibet Poker Announces UK Poker Tour Season 3 Dates
This was published 04-02-2018Unibet Poker has announced that it has once again partnered with Caesars Interactive UK for the third season of its UK Poker Tour.
A £220 buy-in Main Event that features in each of the four stops boasts a £40,000 guaranteed prize pool with players having an opportunity to win their way into it cheaply, online at Unibet Poker. Unibet has made a number of changes to the Main Event’s structure following feedback from the tour’s players.
One of the biggest changes is doubling the starting stack from 25,000 to 50,000 chips that should result in deeper stacks as the tournament progresses. There is also a huge change in the introduction of what Unibet Poker is calling the “flexi-clock” that sees blind levels range between 25 and 45 minutes depending on the stage the tournament is in.
It will still be possible for players to re-enter once per starting day and play in Day 1a as well as Day 1b, taking their largest stack through to the final day.
