Everyone loves a good tournament, right? If that’s you, then we have some good news as every weekend. At 888poker, we’ll literally have “A Good Tournament” for you to play.

That’s right, that’s the name of our new $215 buy-in, $20,000 Guaranteed event that is comprised of two starting flights and a Day 2 finale.

We are aware of the current state of online tournaments. For the most part, they offer a long late registration period, unlimited re-entries, and seemingly countless Day 1 flights.

Many believe such tournaments are detrimental to the online poker ecosystem. Others simply don’t enjoy it. With that in mind, we decided to shake things up by offering “A Good Tournament.”

Joins Us for Good at 888poker!
