Grand Tournament Prize Pool Guaranteed to be 50% Richer at MANSION.com

GIBRALTAR, October 25 /PRNewswire/ --

- $300,000 Guaranteed This Weekend

This weekend's Grand Tournament at MANSION.com (http://www.mansion.com) offers a 50% richer guaranteed Prize Pool, with a confirmed minimum $300,000 up for grabs.

For the first time, MANSION Members can now participate in this monthly Guaranteed tournament.

The Grand Tournament, run as a 'Heat Tournament', offers a unique player-friendly format with two starting heats, or flights, simulating the same slow tournament structure favoured in many major offline events, including the World Series of Poker.

As the ultimate 'slow burner' - with blinds starting at 25/25, 30 minute Levels and a start bank of 10,000 - players can afford to be selective with the hands they get, making it a popular event sure to attract a quality field of skilled online Poker players.

At MANSION.com (http://www.mansion.com) you can buy-in directly for $1000+$40 or participate in any one of the many easy on the pocket online qualifiers throughout the month (buy-ins from as little as $1) with satellites running right throughout this Friday 26 and Saturday 27 October.*

Players buying-in directly have a choice of two heats, Friday 26 October (19:00 GMT) or Saturday 27 October (19:00 GMT), and each heat runs for five hours, or until the number of runners drops below 20% of the starting field when play freezes.

All remaining players automatically earn a ticket to the Grand Tournament Final (Sunday October 28 at 19:00GMT), with chip stacks carried over from their initial Heat to the Final.

With a guarantee of $300,000 in total prize money coupled with a great tournament structure - it doesn't get any grander than this.

The Grand Tournament, scheduled for the last weekend of every month, is exclusive to the Ongame Network.
