P artypoker US Network is ringing in 2022 with some online poker tournament action. Players in New Jersey, Michigan, and Pennsylvania can celebrate with a New Year Knockout Series . “New Year Knockout Weekend helps end this year and ring in the new one with a celebration of one of the most entertaining formats in poker,” BetMGM director of poker Luke Staudenmaier said. Each state hosts its own independent New Year Knockout Series. Here’s a look at the partypoker online poker skins in each state hosting events: New Jersey – partypoker, BetMGM, Borgata Poker
Michigan – BetMGM
Party like it’s 2022
The party runs Dec. 29 to Jan. 2 with all events in the popular progressive knockout (PKO) format. In a PKO tournament, when a player is knocked out, only part of his bounty goes to his opponent.
The other portion is placed on the winning player’s head.The more a player eliminates other players, the more that player’s own bounty is valued. These tournaments make for some interesting dynamics later in a tournament as bounties escalate.
The series includes six events with identical buy-ins and events in all three states but the guarantees will differ. Buy-ins are available for players of all bankroll sizes and range from $20.22 to $1,060 .
The largest Knockout Series event is set for Jan. 2 and will carry a $75,000 guaranteed prize pool in New Jersey. Pennsylvania and Michigan will host the same event but with a $50,000 guarantee.
