Jackpot sit and goes are one of the most popular poker formats across online poker rooms in the US and worldwide. WSOP NJ is no exception as their four-handed BLAST tournaments offer players a chance to win a jackpot up to 10,000 times the buy-in attract low-level casual and high-stakes regs alike.
However, the operator is clearly looking to spice things up even more with weekly BLAST leaderboards running throughout the month and awarding $1000 in prizes each week as well as a special BLAST Day on August 18, featuring five individual leaderboards for five different buy-in levels.
Weekly BLAST Leaderboards Offering $1000 Each Week
Although BLAST sit and goes are exciting enough on their own, WSOP New Jersey has decided to give players yet another reason to grind them during the month of August. Namely, there are eight leaderboards worth $500 each spread across four weeks. Every week, there are two leaderboards running, separated based on the buy-in:
- Low Leaderboard: $1 and $5 buy-ins
- High Leaderboard: $15 and $30 buy-ins
Both leaderboards feature identical prize pools of $500 paid out in BLAST tickets to the top ten finishers in the following fashion:
| Position | Blast Tickets |
|---|---|
| 1 | 3x$30 & 1x$5 |
| 2 | 2x$30 & 2x$5 |
| 3 | 2x$30 |
| 4 | 1x$30, 1x$15, 2x$5 |
| 5 | 1x$30, 1x$15, 1x$5 |
| 6 | 1x$30 & 1x$15 |
| 7 | 1x$30 & 2x$5 |
| 8 | 1x$30 & 1x$5 |
| 9 | 2x$15 |
| 10 | 1x$10 & 1x$5 |
Although this promo has been running for a couple of weeks now, there is still plenty of time to get involved.
- Week 3 Leaderboard: August 17 – 23
- Week 4 Leaderboard: August 24 – 30
All winners will receive their tickets within one week from the leaderboard concluding, and tickets won remain valid for 90 days.
August 18 – The BLAST Day Promo
If you just cannot get enough of BLAST tournaments or if you are looking for something better suited for very small bankrolls, you should definitely check out what WSOP New Jersey has prepared for Wednesday, August 18.
On this day, the operator is running a one-day promo aptly called BLAST Day, which will see five separate leaderboards dish out some extra cash and tournament tickets to players.
- $0.10 BLAST Leaderboard – $50 worth of tournament tickets for the winner
- $1 BLAST Leaderboard – $125 worth of tournament tickets for the winner
- $5 BLAST Leaderboard – $125 in cash & $125 in tickets for the winner
- $15 BLAST Leaderboard – $375 in cash & $375 in tickets for the winner
- $30 BLAST Leaderboard – $750 in cash & $750 in tickets for the winner
Of course, players are welcome to participate in all the different leaderboards, and winning a prize on one of them does not in any way disqualify you from also competing in a different bracket.
BLAST Leaderboard points are calculated based on the formula that accounts for the buy-in, the number of entrants, and the finishing position in each qualifying tournament.
If you do not have an account with WSOP New Jersey as of yet, this is a great time to open one. The operator offers a generous welcome bonus of $50 in free play and a 100% match up to $600 for all newcomers, so you can get plenty of extra funds to use to get involved with these BLAST promos.
Plus, you never know – you might get lucky and trigger a huge multiplier in any of these tournaments to give your bankroll a massive boost.
