the games themselves start at the beginning of october, and run all month.

Prize Pool:
there is, ahem, $5,000 in prize money. i saw that there’s a one time playthrough required on any prize winnings, which i could certainly handle. that’s a lot better than 10x or whatever some of these casinos put in their terms.

it’s not a winner-take-all event, the monies are split up like this . . .

1st Place Prize: $500
2nd Place Prize: $250
5 3rd Place Prizes: $100
25 4th Place Prizes: $50
100 5th Place Prizes: $25

so that’s 132 different prizes.

players start with $500 in credits on the machine, and see how high they can build that before the month ends.

the tournament is being played on the wheel of chance five reel video slot, which is a fun game to begin with. the added prize money should make for a really exciting time.

this is, by far, the biggest freeroll slot tournament i’ve seen at the harbour.
