SunBet Poker Tour

PokerNews live reporters are jetting off to Pretoria, South Africa, this August for the SunBet Poker Tour by MJPT, which runs from July 31 through August 11 at the Time Square Casino. Players from far and wide will descend on the casino for the 12-day poker spectacular, with the Main Event expected to blow its impressive guarantee out of the water.

The SunBet Poker Tour by MJPT Pretoria Main Event, which you can follow updates from on PokerNews, features five starting days between August 7-9, each costing ZAR15,000 (approx. $820) to enter. Those flights need to be busy because the organisers have placed an ZAR4,000,000 guarantee ($220,000) on the prize pool.

Day 2 shuffles up, and deals on August 10, with the champion crowned a day later.

Each player on Day 1 starts with 40,000 chips, with late registration open until the end of the 10th level. Day 1s end after completing 15 levels or when only 15% of the field remains, whichever comes first, meaning the tournament will payout one in eight entrants.

Levels span 50 minutes for Day 1A, 1B, and 1D, 40 minutes for Day 1C, and 30 minutes down to 15 minutes on Day 1E. Levels stay at 60 minutes from Day 2 onward.

A similar Main Event took place at the Time Square Casino in early March. It drew in 418 entrants who created a prize pool worth ZAR5,266,988 ($277,176). The tournament ended in a three-way deal shortly after top-tier South African grinder Jarred Solomon bowed out in fourth.

An anonymous player finished third for ZAR600,000 ($31,575), Mahomed Moideen was the runner-up for ZAR1,000,000 ($52,625), with Sugen Singh finishing top of the pile and turning his initial investment into ZAR707,675 ($37,241).
