A large number of our loyal customers are situated in countries under the influence of the Eastern Time time zone, so the poker room management team here at partypoker has revamped the tournament schedule to add $25,000 of value to tournaments that are Eastern Time friendly.
The new schedule comes into play from February 5 and runs every day. Three new additions to the tournament schedule make their debuts and should be a big hit with MTT aficionados. At 6:00 p.m. ET there is a new $109 buy-in event called The Weigh-In II. This heavyweight event features a $5,000 guaranteed prize pool.
Another new addition is the $55 buy-in Counterpunch II at 9:00 p.m. daily. Playing in this tournament gives you the chance to win a share of a guaranteed $2,500.
Last, but not least, is The Clubber II at 10:00 p.m. every day. This $109 buy-in heavyweight tournament boasts of a $5,000 guarantee.
Several other Eastern Time friendly tournaments see their guarantees given a significant boost. For example, the $5.50 Jab II at 8:00 p.m. sees its guarantee increase by $1,750 to $2,500 while the $22 Contender II has $3,500 added to its guarantee, giving you at least $5,000 to play for. Be sure to check out the table below which shows the highlights of the Eastern Time tournament schedule.

partypoker LIVE North America and Grand Prix Canada
There are two amazing live tournaments taking place in Canada this April and May and you can qualify for both online at partypoker.
The inaugural partypoker LIVE (partypoker LIVE North America) takes place at the prestigious Playground Poker Club in Montreal. Costing CAD$5,300 to enter, partypoker LIVE North America is a high stakes event that has a massive CAD$5,000,000 guaranteed prize pool. Online Phase 1 tournaments are already in the partypoker lobby and cost USD$410 to enter, although there are feeders into these Online Phase 1s costing a fraction of that sum.
In the build up to partypoker LIVE North America there is the CAD$500,000 guaranteed Grand Prix Canada tournament to get your teeth into. Despite the huge guarantee, Grand Prix Canada only costs CAD$220 to enter, which makes it affordable to almost everyone. Again, satellites are feeding into the Grand Prix Canada event and cost from as little as $0.01.
