How do I enter?
There are three different ways to participate for the Saturday main event. Players can enter the $100K Weekly by buying in directly, or by winning their entry in one of AP FreeRoll or Real Money Qualifiers. The buy-in for the $100K Weekly is $200 +16, and there are 5 daily FreeRoll Qualifiers and numerous daily Real Money $100K Qualifiers and Satellites.
$100K Qualifiers
$100K Qualifiers that have the buy-in listed as "Free" are FreeRolls that allow the top finishers to win their entry into the $100K Weekly (a $216 value) without paying an entry fee. $100K Qualifiers that have a real money amount listed as the buy-in award seats to the $100K Weekly based on the number of entrants in the Qualifier. Details on the numbers of players that advance to the $100K Weekly will be posted in the tournament lobbies of the $100K Qualifiers.
$100K Satellites are tournaments that award entries to a $100K Qualifier tournament. Details of the buy-in, the number of players who win entries to the $100K Qualifier and the time of the Qualifier that winning players advance to will be posted in the tournament lobby or in the tournament title.
Once a player wins entry to the $100K Weekly, their name will appear in the lobby of the $100K Weekly, which will be in the tournament lobby for the following Saturday at 16:30 ET.
Can I enter FreeRoll $100K Qualifiers more than once?
Every player at Absolute Poker receives one FREE entry to a FreeRoll $100K Qualifier of their choosing. In order to participate in additional FreeRoll $100K Qualifiers players need to accumulate 50 points.
How do "100K Points" accumulate?
One point is awarded for every raked hand where a minimum of $0.50 of rake is collected. Players can verify if they have enough points to enter another $100K Qualifier by clicking the "register" button in the lobby of the tournament they wish to enter. A pop up box will either confirm that they are registered for the tournament or, if further points are needed, will confirm the number of points the player has toward the 50 points required to enter another FreeRoll $100K Qualifier.
The 5 daily 100k Weekly Guaranteed FreeRoll satellites will start at the times posted below and will award seats as listed:
10:30 A.M. ET = Top 5 players advance to $100K Weekly
2:30 P.M. ET = Top 5 players advance to $100K Weekly
6:30 P.M. ET = Top 5 players advance to $100K Weekly
10:30 P.M. ET = Top 5 players advance to $100K Weekly
2:30 A.M. ET = Top 5 players advance to $100K Weekly
Tournament registration will open at least 2 hours prior to the posted tournament start time! Register early to ensure yourself a seat. Entry to each $100K Qualifier is restricted to the first 2,000 players who register. Players can only win one entry to each $100K Weekly in a FreeRoll $100K Qualifier.
When is the $100K Weekly?
Every Saturday at 16:30 Eastern time.
