Event 1 of the 2016 Lucky Hearts Poker Open at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino Hollywood went down in the history books as the largest poker tournament ever held in the state of Florida. The record-breaking $350 Ultimate Re-Entry No Limit Hold’em event drew a field of 4,075 entries generating a $1,222,500 prize pool. The payouts are headlined by the top two spots, each of which card six-figure scores. The winner, meanwhile, transforms the $350 buy-in into $230,423.
