On April 26th, the third Bodog Poker Open will kick off on one of the world’s largest online poker sites. In a similar model to tournaments held on Full Tilt Poker and PokerStars, the newest Bodog Poker Open will feature three buy-in levels.
The Main Event takes place on May 3rd. Leading up to it, the popular event will feature tournaments held as part of the Championship Tournament Series, Mid-Stakes Tournament Series, and Mini-Bounty Tournament Series. Each features a different schedule of events. Overall, players will battle it out in full- and short-handed tables in games such as Limit Hold’em, No Limit Hold’em, and Omaha. In contrast to other sites, Bodog does not guarantee prize pools in its high-stakes Championship Poker Open. Instead, the site adds money to each prize pool.
Here is a look at the schedule of events that players can look forward to on the popular online poker room, sports book, and casino when the festivities kick off on April 26th:

Bodog Poker pros Evelyn Ng, Jean-Robert Bellande, David Williams, and Justin “ZeeJustin” Bonomo will each have a bounty on their heads throughout the Mini-Bounty Series. In addition, winners from the 12 Days of Poker promotion, Monthly TLB champions, the Top 10 on the Yearly TLB, Mini-SOP victors, Bodog Poker Open II champions, and Flight Club players will also don bounties, making the tournament series lucrative. Knocking any of them out pays for a player’s entry into the Mini-Bounty Series Main Event.
