MultiPrizePool Poker Makes its Debut at UK’s Dusk Till Dawn Casino MultiPrizePool Poker Makes its Debut at UK’s Dusk Till Dawn Casino

The UK’s Dusk Till Dawn Casino based in Nottingham introduced a new live tournament format, MultiPrizePool Poker (MPP™) on Jan 10. The format allows entries at three buy-in levels for a single tournament, enabling players with smaller budgets to compete in bigger buy-in tournaments.

The format is simple: There are three buy-in levels, £25+6, £50+8 and £100+10, and three prize pools. The first prize pool consists of the first £25 of each buy-in, so it’s the number of entries multiplied by £25; the second prize pool is made up of the next £25 paid by all players who buy in at the £50 and £100 levels; the final prize pool is the remaining £50 of the players paid £100.

Effectively, players at the top level have invested £25 into prize pool 1, £25 into prize pool 2 and £50 into prize pool 3.

The prize distribution is independent for each prize pool. The top finishing player in the £100 buy-in prize pool will win first place in that prize pool, and the same goes for the £50 buy-in level. Since all players are entered in the level 1 pool, the tournament winner will also be the winner of the £25 prize pool.

The first MPP tournament attracted a field of 177 entries. The tiered structure paid out nine places at the highest level, 14 at the £50 level and 24 places at the minimum £25 level.
