The Bovada Poker Black Diamond Poker Open (BDPO) is broken down into two series’: the Contender Series, which runs between February 10 and 24, and the Championship Series, which runs between March 10 and 24.

The Contender Series offers more than $150K guaranteed, starting with a kickoff event $10K GTD on Sunday, Feb 10. The Contender Series consists of micro stakes to mid-stakes events for buy-ins as low as $1. The Contender Series Main Event offers $30,000 guaranteed and takes place on Sunday, Feb 24.

The Championship Series offers more than $700K guaranteed, starting with a kickoff event $25K GTD on Sunday, March 10. The series consists of mid to high-stakes events culminating in a $250K GTD Main Event taking place Sunday, March 24.

The overall champion of the 2013 BDPO will win at least $50,000 cash and an engraved limited edition watch worth $5,000.

Players can buy-in directly to any BDPO event or they can win their seat in these events through over 2,000 satellites and qualifiers running now at Bovada Poker. Qualifier freerolls award seats in $1 + $0.10 satellites which in turn award seats in the BDPO itself.

There are also Super Saturday Satellite Tournaments scheduled on the Saturday before each series’ main event which awards a whole bunch of seats in their corresponding event as well.
