Poker pro Tony Guoga’s TonyBet operation is hyping its soon-to-launch Run It Twice tournaments with a tongue-in-cheek reference to Phil Galfond’s new poker site named “Run It Once”.
Tony G’s recreational player focus is the inspiration behind the Run It Twice poker tournament format, previously only available as a function in live cash games.
“A lot of our players love live poker, which is why we are excited to head in this direction. We always think about how fun the game will be when we start to develop a new product, because we don’t want online poker to become a game of click-a-button,” Warren Lush, spokesperson for TonyBet, said. “The introduction of a safe and convenient OFC poker experience online was a huge success, and we feel ready to advance with the unique Run it Twice tournaments.”
TonyBet will launch daily Run it Twice tournaments from the middle of September 2016, and at the end of the same month, the poker room is introducing a Run it Twice freeroll festival with a guaranteed Euro 15 000 prize pool.
