BodogPoker has our favorite tournament because of the huge overlays that happen frequently. The largest tournament at BoDog is the $100,000 Guaranteed also on Sunday's for a $162 buy-in.
Keep a close eye on this tournament because at times BoDog must add extra money to the pot because there are not enough players. The prize pool is $100,000 regardless of how many play and last Sunday BoDog added $29,950 to the pot as only 467 players entered. If that isn't good pot odds we don't know what is - do the math!
467 players times a $150 buy in equals a $70,050 prize pool BUT its a $100,000 guaranteed which means Bodog had to contribute $29,950 ($100,000 less $70,050 paid by players = $29,950 added to the pot).
Play in any of the above tournaments by buying in directly or winning your way through satellites for very low buy-ins.
