Poker players are up for a festival in November and December with small buy-ins. This is the Unibet Online Series X, which starts on Nov. 22 and has prizes of €1,000,000 guaranteed across 134 events, increased from 132 last time.
It has buy-ins as low as €0.25, and go up to €1,100, according to Unibet ambassador David Lappin. There will be six such Unibet Online Series (UOS) events each day, but also rest days in-between, with no UOS events running.
“Unibet Poker has always cultivated a player-centric ethos. We care about our community. We listen to them. We act on their advice. The Unibet Online Series is a manifestation of that with games to suit all pockets,” David Lappin said.
And this is what Kris Bergvall, Head of Poker at Unibet, said about the UOS: “I’m a mixture of excited and nervous about the Unibet Online Series IX. I’m excited because I know our players love these tournaments and love competing for the leaderboards. I’m nervous because we’ve given ourselves a sweat with that aggressive €1 million guarantee.”
The event will feature five leaderboards – there will be one each for nano, low, mid and high stakes tournament, and also one for the overall series performance. Each player is allowed to occupy only one place on each leaderboard. Any players found creating several accounts will be removed from this promotion.
The overall leaderboard includes the points from low, mid and high stakes tournament. The first player in the overall leaderboard received €2,200, the second €1,800, and the third €1,500. Players must finish in the top 17 percent in a tournament to receive additional leaderboard points.
Here are the buy-in levels, for the four stakes of the tournaments:
- High: €100-€1,100
- Mid: €25-50
- Low: €5-10
- Nano: €0.25-€1
This is the fourth such event this year, and the 10th time since its beginning in 2018. And it gains massive popularity, as there are many players who choose to play online poker, on Unibet web sites from many countries, for example Unibet Poker Canada.
