Next Wednesday, the 17th of September, the first tournament of the PokerStrategy International League kicks off! Up for grabs are 8 spots for the final $10,000 freeroll, in which the 100 best ranked players from all communities will participate. Additionally, there is additional prize money of $300, $200 and $100 for the 3 top ranked players of the English community.
THE QUALIFIER LEAGUE
In order to determine the qualifiers for the final freeroll, each community will be holding a qualifying league consisting of ten tournaments. For the English community, these tournaments will be held Wednesdays at 20:00 CET (Central European Time). The tournaments will have no entry fee or prizepool, will be password protected and will take place on Titan Poker. That means as long as you have a play money account there - you can participate. Important: You have to have entered your Titan ID ("TTRxxx") in your PokerStrategy Profile: http://www.pokerstrategy.com/home/profile/
As long as you can create an account at Titan Poker, you are eligible to participate. It does not matter what country you are from as long as you are tracked over the English community!
The top 20 players of each of the tournaments will receive a pre-defined amounts of points which will go towards their ranking score. The 8 players with the most ranking points at the end of 10 weeks will qualify for the big final, and the top 3 players at the end of 10 weeks will receive cash prizes of $300, $200 and $100 respectively. The final point distribution structure can be found here: PokerStrategy International League: First Qualifier Tournament Today
THE BIG Final
The big $10,000 final freeroll, which will also take place on Titan Poker, will have the 100 best ranked players from all communities square off for the big prizes. The amount of users that are eligible to qualify from all communities can be found in the illustration below. The English, the German, Russian, French, Hungarian, Spanish, Polish, Portuguese, Dutch, Italian, Finnish, Chinese Korean and Swedish communities will all be participating.
As there will be 8 players from the English community represented in the final, the chances are good that we will dominate the final table.
