In A Nutshell:



Make the Sunday $100k Guaranteed at Bodog part of your tournament roster!!!

They've been averaging a $30,000 Overlay over the past few months. There are plenty of satellites, so you can easily avoid paying the full buy-in, but even if you decide to take the direct route into the tourney, it's only $109 - compared to the $216 buy-ins for most Sunday guaranteed tournaments.

And, you won't have to work your way through thousands of players to take home the top prize, which has been over $25,000 for some time.

In short - it's a GREAT Value in tournament poker.


Overview:

Every major online poker room runs a Sunday Guaranteed money event, and Bodog is no different. The Bodog $100,000 Guaranteed starts Sunday at 4pm.

A couple of things makes the Sunday event at Bodog different than the events you'll se running at Full Tilt or PokerStars. The first thing you'll notice is that the direct buy-in is lower, coming in at $109 (including room fee). This, of course, makes it easier for people to enter the event.

They run plenty of satellites and qualifiers, so the opportunity to enter the event for significantly less than the full buy-in certainly exists.

Another difference is the number of contestants involved. Instead of facing a cast of thousands, and having to deal with the variance involved in a tournament of that size, you can compete against hundreds of players with a $25,000 first place finish available.

Of course the major reason to play the Sunday $100k Guarantee at Bodog is . . .

Overlay

That's what they call it when the poker room has to add money to the prize pool to make the guarantee. And the overlay at the Bodog sunday event is a bit of a legend in the online poker player community.

Basically, once all of the players who are playing in the tournament pay their buy-in, the poker room takes it and puts together the prize pool. It seldom equals the guaranteed prize pool of $100,000. So, the poker room adds money to it, to get the prize pool up to the required $100k.

How much have they been adding?

On average, about $30,000. Which is a TON. And that makes for what is probably the BEST value for a tournament poker player online.

The Math for a $30,000 overlay in this event? $100,000 divided by 700 players equals a tournament valued at $143 buy-in. So, right from the start you're at payouts that resemble a tournament that would be priced $43 higher than what you're paying.

That, is a good reason to play the Sunday $100k Guaranteed at Bodog
