Progress from Phase 1 to compete in the $22 buy-in Phase 2. Make it through there, and you find yourself in the $109 Phase 3 and only one tournament away from playing for a share of the $200,000 guaranteed prize pool.<\/p>\n<p>The best thing about our phase tournaments is you can buy into any phase you wish. There is no need to buy into the $2.20 Phase 1 if you have the bankroll for phase 2 or 3, for example. The choice is yours.<\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<th>Tournament<\/th>\n<th>Buy-in<\/th>\n<th>Phase Ends<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>The Grand: $200K [Phase 1, Real Name]<\/td>\n<td>$2.20<\/td>\n<td>When 10% of the field remains<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>The Grand: $200K [Phase 2, Real Name]<\/td>\n<td>$22<\/td>\n<td>When 20% of the field remains<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>The Grand: $200K [Phase 3, Real Name]<\/td>\n<td>$109<\/td>\n<td>When 10% of the field remains<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>The Grand: $200K [Phase Final, Real Name]<\/td>\n<td>$1,050<\/td>\n<td>When the champion is crowned<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><em>Lead image courtesy of the World Poker Tour<\/em><\/p>\n<h3>Love poker?
