PKR Oktoberfest

Keep your calendars open from Oct. 27 through Nov. 11 ladies and gentlemen, because those are the dates of the 2012 Oktoberfest on PKR. You do not want to miss it.

Each day for 16 days, PKR will run a mini, medium, and high stakes version of the same tournament, culminating in the Oktoberfest Championship. There will be a total of 51 events, with over $320,000 in guaranteed prize pools ($450,000 in prizes expected), and a whole host of added prizes.

Throughout Oktoberfest, ranking points will be awarded to everyone who enters an Oktoberfest event, starting with five points and increasing all the way up to 100 points for the eventual winner. These points will determine where a player finishes in their respective mini, main, and high leaderboard where a total of $3,500 worth of PKR tournament tickets will be awarded.

In addition to this, the top two finishers from each leaderboard will compete in a six-handed sit-n-go tournament that will see the winner walk away with a $3,000 package to the WPT National Dublin Main Event!
