Level 1:  25/50

The third of four new tournaments on today’s schedule is ready to go at 3 pm in the Seminole Ballroom, the dealers are set up and we just need the players.

Event 14 is a $400 Pot Limit Omaha 8 game, all the action of pot limit and the joy of splitting pots. They’ll start with 12,000 stacks and play 30-minute levels. Late registration is available until the start of Level 9 at 4:30 pm and players may fire as many times as needed during that time.

Since this is another one-day tournament, we will award another LHPO trophy this evening.

Entries:  110

The Six-Max blasted its $50,000 guaranteed prize pool not long after the first hour was complete. Even with a single re-entry option, the tournament is into double digits and climbing.

Justin Harvell was among the early adopters and he’s looking to start off 2020 with a bang like he did 2019. The regular circuit grinder had a lot of close calls in WSOP Circuit events, 14 final tables to be exact, without walking away with a ring. That changed for Harvell last February at our sister poker room in Coconut Creek when he was very happy to win the $400 Monster Stack.

But Harvell didn’t settle there. He flew across the country and won his second ring a month later in Las Vegas.

The Omaha 8/Stud 8 players are heading on their first break of the day with a very 44 split pot specialists in the game to start. They’ll return in 15 minutes to leave only four more levels left to join.

Miami John Cernuto is back in the ballroom not long after narrowly missing out on his first Hollywood trophy. The three-time WSOP bracelet winner finished third in the Big O a few days ago and cashed again last night in the Seniors Event.

The Six-Max tournament kicked off at noon on the dot and we have ten tables spread throughout the room with more ready to go. They are more than halfway to the $50,000 guarantee and it’s a virtual lock to get there.

Phil Rigby is back in the Seminole Ballroom only a few hours after winning his first SHRP trophy. After several close calls, he picked up a win in the Seniors Event last night for a cool $10,689 in a three-way deal.
