Holland Casino will pay out an extra € 60,000 in prize money to Master Classics of Poker 2002 participants who finish in the 19th to 30th places inclusive. All these participants will receive their tournament fee back. These extra prizes are not deducted from the total prize fund consisting of players’ fees.
Distribution of prize money: 1% of the total prize money will first be deducted to provide the prize for the “high hand” of the day. If two players are out of the game at the same time, the relevant prize money is shared equally between them.
Places 19 through 30 will receive the original tournament fee, excluding the entry fee and any rebuy. These prizes are offered by courtesy of Holland Casino.
