$1K 6-Max Poker Tournament Returns This Summer After Hiatus

The $1k 6-Max poker tournament returns this Summer after skipping last Spring’s schedule. Jerry Li took the title in the previous edition, defeating Eric Wasylenko for the top prize. Organisers have now confirmed the event’s structure and key details for the upcoming game on Tuesday. Last Summer’s tournament attracted 117 players, building a prize pool of $100,035. The format includes 30-minute blind levels and a starting stack of 30,000 chips. Participants can buy in or rebuy across 12 levels, with the final entry window closing at around 8:45 PM.

Once the rebuy period ends, the game continues until a single winner emerges. The buy-in remains set at $900 plus a $100 fee, matching last year’s structure. Jerry Li’s victory in the previous edition marked the most recent win in this event.

The tournament resumes after a break, offering another chance for players to compete in the fast-paced 6-Max format. With a guaranteed prize pool and a proven structure, the game is scheduled to run on Tuesday. Registration and rebuys will follow the same rules as before.
