The weekend is upon us, and that means many PokerNewsreaders are preparing to swap the daily grind of their nine-to-five for battling at the virtual felt in some prestigious poker tournaments. This weekend has plenty of stellar events for you to sink your teeth into, including the $300,000 guaranteed KO Games Main Event at 888poker.
The 888poker KO Games has reached its halfway stage, with 16 of 31 numbered events having crowned their worthy champions. Some juicy tournaments remain on the schedule, but none boast the $300,000 guaranteed prize pool of the $215 buy-in Main Event.
888poker requires 1,500 entries for the $300,000 guarantee to be met. At the time of writing, 612 entries have been processed, and only 75 have progressed to Day 2 on October 28. Ten more Day 1s remain, with two occurring on October 25 and October 26, four on October 27, and two last-gasp flights on October 28.
Should you dream of heading into Day 2 of the KO Games Mystery Bounty Main Event with a top ten stack in tow, you must turn your 10,000 starting stack into at least 143,266 on your chosen flight. Only nine big blinds separate "0nlyBet" in tenth (143,266) and "pactamah23" (164,438) in third.
Two 888poker players finished their respective Day 1s with over 200,000 chips. Second-placed "KellerA" of Germany has 200,833 chips (80 big blinds) when they sit down on Day 2, while chip leader "TAJJMAAKKHAL" of Tajikitsan returns to the action with a 211,822 war chest (85 big blinds).

The eagerly anticipated Stars Season gets underway on October 27 with five superb events. PokerNewshas already published an article about the $109 buy-in, $1 million guaranteed Sunday Million PKO. It's now time to shed some light on The Terminator events that Lex "L. Veldhuis" Veldhuis is hosting.
Veldhuis will be in action in the $11, $55, and $215 buy-in edition of The Terminator, a trio of progressive knockout events that favor loose-aggressive play. The Terminator's guarantee $40,000, $100,000, and $100,000, respectively.
Should you eliminate Veldhuis from any of his three Terminator tournaments, you'll capture the bounty on his head, plus entry to an All-In Shootout that has a $2,500 New Year Series Silver Pass in its prize pool, a $109 ticket to the $1.25 million guaranteed Stars Season Finale on December 1, AND an exclusive throwable Spraggy!
