Super High Roller Masters announced
Recently announced Poker Masters will be coming to the Aria this September and, just like the Golf Masters, the winner will receive a jacket.
Poker Central and the ARIA Casino are to pair up and stage a week-long high-stakes poker tournament named The Poker Masters this coming September.
The series will be comprised of four two-day long $50,000 buy-in tournaments and one three-day $100,000 buy-in tournament. For those hoping to watch, PokerGo will be live streaming the event.
The winner will be determined by total earnings across the five events and just like the Super High Roller Bowl, shot clocks will be in-play, timed at 30 seconds and in every event, players will receive one 60 second time extension.
There will not be any limitations on the number of players who enter at different stages of the competition, but those who sign up early will pay no rake, while late comers will be charged rake fees.
The winner's jacket
And, just like the US Masters Golf major where the winners are awarded the coveted green jacket, the Poker Masters champion will be gifted a unique, custom made Poker Masters Purple Jacket.
The Poker Masters Purple Jacket is coming.
Seriously.
