The special event features a $9 buy-in and a guaranteed prize pool of $90,000. The tournament has been designed as a one-off celebration for Stake.com's ninth birthday, offering players an accessible entry point while competing for the guaranteed prize pool.
In addition to the guaranteed prize pool, every participant will have a $5 bounty placed on them. Whenever a player eliminates an opponent, the $5 bounty is credited instantly, separate from any tournament winnings earned through their finishing position.
This bounty structure allows players to collect rewards throughout the event while continuing their pursuit of the main prize pool.
The tournament has a maximum capacity of 10,000 players. Seats will be allocated on a first come, first served basis, making early registration important for those wishing to participate in the event.
Players can locate the tournament in the Poker lobby under "9th Birthday Poker Special" before the scheduled start time on August 8.
