For some time, even a few years, large free tournaments have not been organized in Belgium. Indeed, tournaments such as « Belgium Open Freeroll » and others have deserted our poker rooms and have not reappeared, giving way to regular club tournaments.

Thanks to a partner of PokerGeek.be, we will try to set up a buy-in tournament of zero euro . Yes, a tournament all over Belgium, and free!
There are likely to be many players coming to the clubs and we have until May to put this structure in place.

The project

Thanks to our partner ARENA POKER CAMP , we already have the main prize worth 550 euros. This is a stay in Spain for the next Arena in Lloret del Mar. With the help of other partners and participating clubs, we will add additional prizes in order to have a pleasant « prize pool » (Lots) .

We invite Belgian poker clubs to organize a local first level and take the opportunity to welcome many players. Run your refreshments, and promote your club by attracting new players with this free tournament (Freeroll).

How is the score per player calculated?

For each player, a score will be calculated based on:
– Their position in the tournament
– Number of players registered in the tournament

The score is calculated as follows:
= (SQR (Number of participants ) / SQR (Player position )) * 100

In the event of a tie, the highest number of « Kill » will be used. Then number of players participating in the tournament

Example 1: Tournament of 8 players, the winner with 283 points and 3 Kills

Example 2: Tournament of 26 players, the winner at 510 points and 5 kills

Example 3: Tournament of 76 players, the winner with 872 points and 10 Kills

Final example: Grouping of lists
