The Saturday line-up Poker Tournament is a weekly schedule of major tournaments, running every Saturday and open to all players. There's a good spread of events to pick from, each with its own format and its own personality, which is a polite way of saying Saturday never fancied a quiet night in.
Across the week you'll also find satellites feeding into the big Saturday events. To track one down, search for "Saturday" in the Tourney or Tournaments tab, depending on the gaming platform you're using.
Start times, entry details and guaranteed prize pool information are listed alongside the tournaments in the schedule, so you can see what each event involves before you sit down.
Bets, Payouts & Rules
Each event in the Saturday line-up follows its own structure, and the guaranteed prize pools are published in advance. Here's how the named events break down:
- Saturday Micro: a starting point for players who want a feel for major tournament play, with a guaranteed prize pool attached.
- Saturday Eliminator: a Progressive KO tournament that awards a bounty prize each time you knock out an opponent, alongside guaranteed prizes for those who outlast the field.
- Saturday KO: the headline act of the schedule, also played in Progressive KO format, so every player you eliminate hands you a bounty.
- Saturday Duel: a heads-up Zoom Progressive Total KO event, played against one opponent at a time.
- Saturday Speedway: a No Limit Hold'em Turbo event that rounds out the Saturday schedule.
Further tournaments sit alongside these on the weekly schedule, each with its own start time and entry details listed.
Features & Bonus Rounds
Progressive KO bounties
Both the Saturday Eliminator and the Saturday KO use the Progressive KO format. Each elimination awards a bounty prize, so these events recognise knockouts as well as how long you last in the field.
Saturday Duel heads-up play
The Saturday Duel strips the table back to two players. Just you, one opponent, and absolutely nowhere to hide behind a quiet fold. It runs as a Zoom Progressive Total KO event.
Turbo format
The Saturday Speedway is a No Limit Hold'em Turbo event, and it's the one that closes out the Saturday line-up schedule.
Satellites
Satellites run through the week and offer routes into the larger Saturday events. Search "Saturday" in the Tourney or Tournaments tab to see which ones are scheduled.
Taste & Feel
Saturday has a shape to it here. The Micro opens proceedings, the Eliminator and the KO bring the bounty formats, the Duel turns poker into a series of private arguments, and the Speedway closes things out.
It's a schedule built for players who like variety on one day of the week: knockout formats, heads-up play and a turbo event all sitting on the same card. Have a browse through the start times whenever the mood takes you, and pick the format that suits you best.
