About the 50/50 Main Event
The 50/50 Series $50 Main Event is your chance to snag a huge payday without needing to fork out hundred of dollars or even more doing so. The only downside that comes with a small buy-in and a big guarantee is that the field will be massive as it will take at least 22,003 entries for the tournament to surpass the lofty $1 million guarantee.
If the $50 buy-in is too much for your bankroll, even for a one-time, can't miss event like this one, rest assured you still have plenty of time to get into this event cheaply with satellites starting at just $1.10.
