PKR Becomes First MPN Site to Launch Jackpot Sit-n-Go Tournaments
Jackpot sit-n-go tournaments are one of the most exciting variants available in the online poker world thanks to the fast pace and opportunity to win a huge cash prize for a small investment.
Several networks and poker sites offer these tournaments, but until this week the MPN was not one of them. However, the only true 3D online poker site, PKR, has changed that fact by becoming the first MPN site to offer jackpot sit-n-go games.
Buy-ins to these three-handed turbo tournaments range from �1 up to �50, with five percent from each buy-in removed as a tournament fee and an additional five percent removed to contribute to the progressive jackpot, a feature not available in any other jackpot sit-n-go on other sites.
This progressive jackpot is triggered when the top prize pool multiplier (5,000 times) is hit, which will happen five games in one million, on average.
Games with multipliers of two, four, six, 10, and 20 are winner-take-all events, but any game with a multiplier of 100, 500, or 5,000 will have the prize pool split 50 percent to first, 30 percent to second, and 20 percent to third, just like a traditional sit-n-go, which means if the 5,000 multiplier is hit at a �50 buy-in game, even the third-place finisher will bank �50,000.
