Event 2: First Trophy

$400 Limit Omaha 8 (Freeze-Out)
Structure
Level 1:  50/100 Limits

It wouldn’t be a Seminole Hard Rock Poker festival if we didn’t throw in plenty of games for our non-Hold’em friends and we have the first one right out of the gates today at noon. Event 1 may be the first tournament of the series but Event 2 will award the first Poker Showdown trophy.

Event 2 is a $400 buy-in Limit Omaha/8 tournament and this game drew a huge 123-player field in January. They’ll start with 12,000 stacks and run 30-minute levels throughout the day. Late registration is available until the start of Level 9 at 4:30 pm but the Freeze-Out format means no re-entries if a player busts. They will have a dinner break at 6 pm and return to play down to our first Showdown champion.

  • Players begin with 12,000 in chips and 30-minute levels
  • Late registration until start of Level 9 (4:30pm)
  • This is a one-day tournament and plays until completion
