For online poker players, Monday always starts on Sunday. Since the early days of the poker boom, it was on Sunday that the juiciest and most prestigious tournaments were held. The brave new world of online poker in Ontario is no different. Sunday is still king.
To honor the tradition of Sunday extravaganzas, PartyPoker Ontario has been putting together a tournament schedule to rival its other markets.
Now, Sunday players can look forward to an additional five Sunday PKO majors that have been added to PartyPoker Ontario’s schedule as The Super Sunday events. These nicely compliment the range of Daily Legends events that PartyPoker Ontario already runs.
These new events should soon be a part of every fastidious Ontarian’s Sunday grind. Casual players looking for a bit of competition in their price bracket can pick from buy-ins that start at $11 and swell to $109. For pros who want a solid session, the start times are close together, with the earliest event kicking off at 5:05 p.m. Eastern Time and the latest at 7:05 p.m.

What to Expect From A Super Sunday Event
In the interest of giving all players the best possible experience, PartyPoker Ontario has kept the structure for all five events the same. Each event is a progressive knock-out event with limited re-entries and reduced late registration (late reg ends after 12 levels). The PKO format allows you to win money as you go, earning something for every player you send to the rail.
These aspects have been chosen to make the event more fun for casual players. In turn, this bolsters turnout and makes for a more attractive player pool for pros to dive into.
Players start the Super Sunday events with 50,000 in chips and starting blinds of 250/500 with a 65 ante. Blinds increase every ten minutes in all but The Super Sunday 100, which has 12-minute blinds levels.
On a typical week, PartyPoker Ontario guarantees $14,000 in prizes across the five Super Sunday events, though this can vary from weekend to weekend. So there are plenty of opportunities for lucky and skilled players to hit it big.
