Maui Progressive Jackpot.
The “Maui Progressive Jackpot” is also a very popular tournament at CD Poker.
The tournament offers a larger prize then the dirty dozen jackpot, but also commands a higher buyin. Because this tournament offers a “progressive” jackpot, it means the prizepool increases on a weekly basis. The prizepool starts at $15,000 and for each week the jackpot goes unclaimed a further $3,500 is added to the pool.
It is not uncommon to see this jackpot rise to $50,000 before being collected. To win the jackpot you will need to finish 1st in five consecutive tournaments, it should also be noted a consolation prize of $200 is awarded to players who finish 1st or 2nd in five consecutive Maui progressive jackpot tournaments.
The Maui tournaments have a $5 + $1 buyin, the rake of $1 may seem excessive (10% is standard tournament rake) but this is put in place to continue the growth of the jackpot. Maui tournaments start when 10 players are registered. The blind levels and starting chips are the same as the “Dirty Dozen” jackpot tournaments, seven minute blinds and 1000 starting chips.
