Event 9: Field Update

$300 Omaha8B/Stud8B (Re-Entry)
Level 5: 200/400 Limits

There are now 26 entries in Event 9 at the Seminole Hard Rock Lucky Hearts Poker Open. Registration will remain open until the start of Level 7. Notables in the field include Robert Campbell, Michael Moed, and Timothy Patros. We will have the official field size and prize pool numbers available for you later tonight.

Event 7 Day 1D: Two Bills

$350 Deep Stack No Limit Hold’em (Re-Entry)
Level 8: 300/600/75 ante

The third flight of Event 7 has reached its final level for players to get in the game. The entrant count hit 200 midway through the level to become the biggest start of the tournament.

That almost guarantees Event 7 will easily surpass a $250,000 prize pool by the time registration completely closes the books this evening.

Event 9: Patrus Leads Early

$300 Omaha8B/Stud8B (Re-Entry)
Level 4: 150/300 Limits

Timothy Patrus has a few results to his credit but they include a final table finish this week in the Omaha/8 tournament. He’s looking to improve on his 8th place finish in that tournament and has started well with the early chip lead here.

Timothy Patrus – 16,825
Oscar Santana – 14,250
Andrew Donovan – 14,175
Harry Eisenberg – 13,800
Michael Moed – 12,475
Perry Werbel – 11,600
Stephen Reid – 11,275
Gregory Masterson – 9,275

Event 9: Slow and Steady

$300 Omaha8B/Stud8B (Re-Entry)
Level 3: 100/200 Limits

Robert Campbell’s opponent just set an example about the joys of hi/lo games. They were head up in Stud/8 and they were firing bets all the way to 7th street. Campbell was calling with the lock low while his opponent was merely holding a straight flush.

The two split up the antes and bring-in, a seemingly small payout for the big hand. He took it like he’s seen it many times before.

Players are about to head off on their first break with 26 players in the field and a little over two more hours to register.

Event 7 Day 1D: Early Leaders

$350 Deep Stack No Limit Hold’em (Re-Entry)
Level 5: 150/300/25 ante

They keep piling in and the post-break numbers show 166 on the clock. We have a chip leader and the first to six-digits today, wish we could mention his name. Our early bird wishes to remain anonymous and we are obliging.

A.Nonymouse – 107,300
Robert Heller – 64,900
Joseph Ebelhar – 63,125
Jay Klitzner – 62,900
Nicolas Pupillo – 62,100
Antuan Bunkley – 46,500
Jeff Charlton – 45,700
Lois Bouit – 40,725
Gary Flur – 39,500
Hank Ayoub – 38,725

Event 7 Day 1D: Chasing Chips

$350 Deep Stack No Limit Hold’em (Re-Entry)
Level 3: 75/150

Players in today’s final two flights are trying to join the 83 others who have advanced to Day 2 and they’re all chasing Jorge Rivera. He bagged 385,500 last night to lead the field so far.

Event 9: Time to Chop Pots

$300 Omaha8B/Stud8B (Re-Entry)
Level 1: 50/100 Limits

The 2015 Seminole Hard Rock Lucky Hearts Poker Open schedule presents another non-Hold’em tournament for all to enjoy. This time around it’s mixing up split pot games by alternating between Omaha/8 and Stud/8. Event 9 has a $300 buy-in for anyone who wants to chop up some opponents, metaphorically.

Players begin with 10,000 stacks and 40-minute levels. This is scheduled as a two-day tournament with play scheduled to stop at 12am or the final table, whichever comes first. Late registration and re-entry is available until the start of Level 7.

Players are getting their instructions and cards will soon be in the air.
