This is a reminder from Gambling911.com that the UB.com UBOC5 Championship online poker tournament series kicks of Wednesday, August 18, 2010 at 8:05 pm EST (20:05) with over $4 million in cash and prizes being offered up. 

Event # 1 of this massive online poker tournament includes a $200,000 GTD No Limit Hold ‘em Sniper event, with a $300+20 buy-in, and a $30 bounty on all players’ heads. Knock out tournament host Joe Sebok (or any Team UB Pro playing in any UBOC event) to receive a $200 bounty reward in tournament dollars and an official UBOC Sniper T-shirt.

Event # 2 will also run on August 18th at 20:05 ET, and players for whom mixed games are their bag, they should pull up a seat at the $250+17 buy-in Pot Limit Hold ‘em/Pot Limit Omaha $100K GTD, hosted by Team UB’s Bryan Devonshire.

Getting a head start in the UBOC action should be part of the plan for all UBOC5 participants, because cashing in more than 2 UBOC events will be their ticket to more rewards in the form of freeroll entries, tournament seats, and cash prizes up to a staggering $1 Million.

It's all part of the innovative UBOC Bubble Buster. The number of times a player finishes in the money in a UBOC5 tournament will be tallied at the end of the series to determine what bonuses they receive. The Bubble Buster prizes are:

            11 or more cashes                        $1,000,000

            10 cashes                                    $   100,000

              9 cashes                                    $     25,000

              8 cashes                                    $     10,000

              7 cashes                                    $       5,000

              6 cashes                                    $150K GTD entry (Wednesday @ 20:30 ET, $1050)

              5 cashes                                    $100K GTD entry (Sunday @ 14:00 ET, $530)

              4 cashes                                    $75K GTD entry (Monday @ 20:30 ET, $530)

              3 cashes                                    $200K GTD entry (Sunday @ 16:00 ET, $215)

              2 cashes                                    $10K Freeroll entry
