Progressive Knockout tournaments<\/h3>\n

Progressive Knockout tournaments arrive on partypoker with the bounties increasing every time someone knocks a player out. The action-packed tournaments give players the chance to win hundreds or even thousands of dollars at any moment.<\/p>\n

Progressive Knockouts work like regular knockout tournaments, except the bounty increases with every player eliminated. These tournaments will initially feature on partypoker three times a day, although more will be added to the schedule in the coming weeks:<\/p>\n

Fast Five cash games<\/h3>\n

Fast Five is a quick-fire 6-max cash game where players start with five big blinds. It\u2019s played exactly the same way as a regular cash game except everybody starts with a tiny stack, so the action is always fast and furious. The small buy-in of just five big blinds means that all bankrolls can play, with the smallest buy-in starting at just $2.50. The fixed buy-in keeps the game fast and fair.<\/p>\n

Group Head of partypoker Tom Waters said: \u201cToday we launch two new products on partypoker that will suit both tournament and cash game players. Progressive Knockout tournaments are a popular format in the poker community so it was important to respond to feedback and offer these on partypoker. Fast Five is a fun, fast-paced cash game, suitable for players with only a short amount of time but wanting action quickly.\u201d<\/p>\n
