Thunder Tournaments
Due to popular player demand, Poker Plex has introduced one of the most exciting Tournament format there is.Thunder Tournaments leave players with reduced action time and players will have the chance to test their skills.
Players will only have a mere 12 seconds to act and there will be shorter blind levels (6 minutes).
The Thunder Tournaments are a great way to test your speed and decision making, so if you think you've got what it takes to be a Thunder Tournament champion, there are plenty of Thunder Tournament options waiting for you in the Poker Plex lobby now!
Headhunter Challenge
Anyone who knocks a player out of the tournament will receive cash. The more players you eliminate, the more cash you win - and a bigger targret you will become as the value of your own head incereases with every head you take.All players entering a Headhunter Tournament pay the same buy-in + entry fee. The prize pool is then divided, with a portion being allocated to heads, and the rest going towards the standard prize pool. Although it's configurable, the standard Headhunter Tournament will award 50% of the prize pool based upon heads that are knocked out and 50% as the regular prize pool.
$1000 Bonus
Poker Plex is giving players the chance to choose their monthly bonus depending on their level of play. Monthly bonuses are activated on the first day of each month at 00:01 EST and expire on the last day of each month at 23:59 EST.|
