Absolute Poker is one part of the CEREUS network and the site has grown considerably over the past few years. Players will find a great gaming selection as well as tournament play, including the weekly $150k guaranteed tournament.
The $150k guaranteed tournament is offered each weekend and players can purchase their seat for $500 plus $30 or they can earn a spot via satellites offered during the week. Satellites start out at very low prices, just a few dollars, so anyone can afford to try and earn their spot in the competition. The tournaemtn offers a nice guaranteed prize pool and most times the prize pool is increased so players have the chance to earn even more cash.
This past weekend the tournament had a great turnout of 318 players. This created an increase in the prize pool and 36 spots earned a prize. the prize pool was worth $159,000 and first place earned almost $40,000.
This time around no deals were cut so everyone had to hang on in order to earn a big prize. the top five players earned a five figure payday and it was online players A2STEAKSAUCE and MARKDOJA11 who made it to heads up play.
Heads up play would last for a little while until MARKDOJA11 would gain the final chip lead. Both players would go all in thinking they had the winning hand. The cards were in MARKDOJA11's favor so he would claim the first place win and the $39,750 first place prize.
Final Results:
MARKDOJA11 - $39,750
A2STEAKSAUCE - $24,089
