I must admit to a confused moment about OnGame this month. I said to my colleague Greg here in the Planet HQ that the Fishmarket was back on November 29th… Only when he looked it up there was no sign of it, either on the websites or software. I genuinely began to believe I might have dreamt it, haha.
Luckily for my sanity (and hopefully my bankroll), the FishMarket is back, and is scheduled on the 29th of this month, phew, I did not dream it after all.
For those who do not know this is a $11 tournament with a $7,500 prize pool + give-aways that all new depositors at the super-cool Red Kings Poker get a free entry token for – alongside their choice of welcome bonus! I’ll cover my reasoning for why this is a great game at the end of this post, first some of the other nice promos at Red Kings and the OnGame network this November.
Red Kings November Points Race
Here is a great twist on the normal ‘points race’ theme… Instead of having to grind for an entire month to see where you are on a leaderboard, Red Kings pay out every 3 days! This is great for those of us who do not have the entire month to dedicate to poker – and with $50,000 to distribute among the top 250 players every 3 days there is plenty of cash to get your hands on too.
You need to register through the Red Kings websites (click ‘promotions’ first, then ‘$50k race’) and will get even more cash if you are part of their VIP loyalty program. If you are not already a player at Red Kings then you can collect points this month for the $50k race, and by next month you should have enough for those extra benefits!
Red Kings $300 / $500 Special ’2 Red Kings’ Bonus
In addition to being one of the longest standing OnGame sites, RedKings have a special bonus for all players which is triggered the first time you are dealt the two red kings in a real money cash game.
Simply get dealt the king of hearts and king diamonds together and you get a $300 bonus. If you lose with them at showdown then your bonus is increased to $500! There is no rule to say you can not play the hand badly, though in line with the standard poker rules you should not collude in the chat box.
This bonus is unique to Red Kings Poker and is in addition to the choice of 6 welcome bonuses matched to your first deposit!
Fishmarket – Why I love OnGame And Why You Should Play This Tournament
First OnGame, a cool mid-sized network with an added benefit! That benefit is the big sports-betting brands which are attached to the network, such as Bwin and Betfair. These brands ensure that there are always new players (sports betting fans mostly) coming to the tables – keeping the games nice and soft!
Fishmarket has become one of my favorite tournaments. With all new players getting a token to enter, the fields are usually super-easy. This easy game attracts a lot of other players who come after the chance of some big prize money and extras (tablets / polo shirts get given to the later finishers). So, you end up with the new players and recreational types all in one place – I expect the $7,500 guarantee to be broken easily!
