Triple 9 poker tournaments at Intertops Poker this week

This week, Intertops Poker is hosting nine poker tournaments, each with a $999 prize pool. Buy-in is $29, there are nine-minute blinds, players start with 999 chips and the maximum re-entries is, of course, nine.

Triple 9 tournaments start this afternoon and continue until May 27th.

“The number 9 is associated with longevity – a good trait for a poker player,” said Intertops Poker’s manager. “So we’ve got some exclusive gear for nine players that grind through all nine tourneys!"

The number 999 is thought to mean completion. 9 is the last single digit, so seeing this number everywhere may suggest something is ending or will be completed soon.
