BetRivers Poker Introduces Progressive Knockouts and Boosts Sunday Schedule


BetRivers Poker has introduced Progressive Knockout (PKO) tournaments, a format that splits entry fees into two prize pools. One portion is reserved for traditional payouts based on how far players advance, while the other is placed as a bounty on each player’s head. In the progressive variation, when a bounty is won, part of it is paid immediately and the other part is transferred onto the winning player’s own bounty, increasing the value of knocking them out later in the tournament.

BetRivers Poker has added several new PKO tournaments to its Sunday schedule. Notable additions include a $5 Mini Sunday Special PKO with a $1,500 guarantee and a $50 Sunday Special PKO with a $5,000 guarantee. Additionally, two new tournaments, the $10 Mini Sunday Starter and the $100 Sunday Starter, have been introduced to the Sunday lineup, both running at 4 PM ET. The $10 Mini Main guarantee has been boosted from $3,000 to $3,500, while the $100 Main guarantee has jumped from $15,000 to $20,000. The newly launched $200 Sunday High Roller will feature a generous $25,000 guarantee.

BetRivers Poker has also rolled out several promotions designed to appeal to different types of players. These include Re-Entry Redemption, where tournament players get 20% back of their initial entry if they re-enter, SNG Select, where players earn a free SNG Select ticket worth up to $10 daily, and Cash Game Leaderboards, with a weekly $11,000 prize pool up for grabs throughout the month.

I've spent years at the tables — cash and tournaments — and just as long shaping poker copy behind the scenes: room reviews, bonus fine print, tournament notes. At PokerInsider I write the way I wish more sites would: clear structure, honest trade-offs, no hype. Whether you're new or already grinding, I care about what the offer actually costs you — rake, variance, and the fine print — and I treat responsible play as part of the job, not a footnote.
