Stake Poker hosts the $1,000 guaranteed Hitman No-Limit Hold'em tournament in three hours. The $20 buy-in event features an eight-player format, 5,000 starting chips, nine available re-entries, and a specialized Progressive Knockout bounty payout structure for all participating online players.

Stake Poker is gearing up for the launch of its upcoming Hitman tournament, a No-Limit Hold'em event featuring a guaranteed prize pool of $1,000 and a buy-in of $20.

According to the official Stake Poker event structure, a minimum of 6 players must register for the tournament to successfully run. 

However, the field has plenty of room for growth, accommodating a massive maximum capacity of up to 7,000 players. 

For those who do not register before the start, late registration will remain open for a duration of 1 hour and 36 minutes once the tournament clock officially begins.

The structural layout of the tournament positions gameplay around an 8-player table size, which perfectly aligns with the displayed table format of 8. 

Every participant entering the tournament will receive an initial starting stack consisting of 5,000 chips to build their strategies.
For participants who happen to lose their initial chip stacks during play, the rules allow for a maximum of 9 re-entries per player. 

The Hitman tournament utilizes a specialized Progressive Knockout format, providing a unique twist on traditional elimination play. 

The bounty distribution operates under a precise rule, for every player that you eliminate, you will receive exactly half of their bounty.

The other half of the eliminated player's bounty will then be added directly to your own bounty, increasing your overall bounty value as the field narrows.
