The Gladiator is one of PartyPoker Ontario’s most popular Daily Legends tournaments. The exciting progressive knockout tournament steps into the arena and shuffles up and deals at 18:05 EST Monday through Saturday; will you take it on?<\/p>\n

Fifty-five Canadian dollars is what it costs to fight it out in The Gladiator, that is unless you manage to secure your $55 seat via one of the several $7.50 buy-in satellites running each day. Unlike in an actual gladiatorial battle, the weapons of choice are chips, and your $55 buy-in grants you 50,000 betting tokens.<\/p>\n

It pays to play aggressive in progressive knockout tournaments, so feel free to do so knowing that up to two re-entries are permitted during the late registration period. That late reg period last until the end of the 12th level, with each level spanning ten minutes.<\/p>\n

PartyPoker Ontario guarantees a $1,500 purse, where half is awarded like a traditional tournament, and the remaining 50% placed on the heads of each entrant in equal chunks. Defeat an opponent to instantly win 50% of their bounty as a cash prize with the remainder of your haul increasing the price on your head. Finish top of the pile and you get to keep the bounty on your head, too.<\/p>\n

Monster1078 Eliminates Half of the Field on the Way to Victory<\/h2>\n

A recent edition of The Gladiator saw 31 Ontarians take to the PartyPoker Ontario virtual felt and create a $1,550 prize pool. Remember how earlier we said it pays to play aggressive in a PKO tournament? Well, it seems “Monster1078” took that advice onboard because they bulldozed their way to victory.<\/p>\n

The compact field meant only the top six finishers received a payout from the main prize pool, and it was “gail1974” who was the first to bag some of that cash. With bounties included, the sixth place finisher banked $60.27.<\/p>\n

“Thehood2004991” was the next finalist to be ejected from The Gladiator; they scooped $69.21 for their efforts.<\/p>\n

Fourth place and $88.58 went to “chris777444” before “A.k177” was slain in third and hauled in the tournament’s first three-figure payment, namely $121.56.<\/p>\n

Heads-up saw “Monster1078” take on “sorry4urluck” in a battle to the death. Both players guaranteed themselves over $217 from the main prize pool, but the final bounty payment was massive, and most of it was on “Monster1078″‘s head.<\/p>\n

“Monster1078” got the job done and added $568.75 from the bounty prize pool to the $217.77 from the main prize pool. The champion had eliminated 15 of the 31 entrants and helped themselves to $568.75 of the $775 bounty prizes! An incredible performance to say the least.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
