The tables are packed and the room is hopping but time is running out to get into this flight of the $1,000,000 Guarantee opener. They will play out Level 8, take a break, and registration will close on Flight G when they return.

But have no fear, you will still one last chance to earn some of the big money when Flight H closes out Event 1 starting at 6pm.

The amazing pace of entries continued, the entry count jumped over 900 and they are screaming toward 1,000. That will be a tough mark to hit with an hour remaining in late registration but it is not out of the question. The combined total hit 3,500 entries with an entire flight left to go.

We took another walk around the packed Event Center and found a lot of our SHRP regulars taking their shot today.

For a few minutes this afternoon, the Hard Rock Event Center was (relatively) quiet as more than 70 tables empty into the halls for the break. Every table is in use between Flight G and the Big O tournament and most of them left the room.

It was a quick walk while they were gone and we found two big stacks standing out. SHRP regular Zoltan Czinkota looks like the current leader with 101,000 to 5x his starting stack and James Milles is not far behind, only a few chips short of 100,000.

With a few minutes remaining before the first break of the day, Flight G hit 692 entries. That is good enough to push the combined total for Event 1 up to 3,334 and officially put the prize pool over $1,000,000.

They will continue running it up today with late registration/re-entry available for Flight G until 3:30pm and Flight H goes at 6pm.

ICYMI: Big Crowds on Day 3

On Friday, the Seminole Hard Rock “Rock ‘N’ Roll Poker Open” saw a packed Hard Rock Event Center host two more flights of Event 1 and a one-day Pot Limit Omaha trophy event.

Flights E and F combined to put more than 1,200 entries into the $1,000,000 Guarantee opening event and the tournament is on the verge of pushing the prize pool into seven-digit territory. Another 163 players booked a seat in Day 2 on Sunday as the Event Center stayed busy all day long.

Riley Fuller
Justin Slavin

Former SHRP champ Riley Fuller finished with the top stack in Flight E with Glenn Menne not far behind. In Flight F, the biggest of the first six, Justin Slavin went huge and was the first person to put more than 500K away for Sunday. He will return with 535,500 and holds the overall lead with two more flights to go.

Top Ten Event 1 stacks:

  1. Justin Slavin – 535,500

Igor Tretyakov wins $360 PLO

The one-day Pot Limit Omaha event continued the trend this series of topping the fields from last year. In November 2017, the PLO tournament drew 89 entries and this time around it was a huge 137 entry turnout.

As per usual with PLO tournaments, it played down quickly then slowed as they reached the final two tables. It came to an end when the last three players agreed on a deal to divide up the remaining prize pool evenly and chip leader Igor Tretyakov earned the third trophy of the series.

Event 4 results:

1st: Igor Tretyakov – $7,673
2nd: Pavel Bystrov – $7,672

Event 5: Big O Time

Structure
Level 1: 25/50

Event 1 keeps blasting along and taking up most of the seats in the Hard Rock Event Center but the RRPO schedule continues to keep something around the non-hold’em folks. The first three, one-day events (Limit Omaha 8, H.O.R.S.E., and PLO) all surpassed their numbers from last year and we have a brand new RRPO game today.

Big O is a popular game these days and we put it on the schedule for the first time in August during the Seminole Hard Rock Poker Open. Today they will play the five-card Pot Limit Omaha 8 game again and we will award another trophy later this evening.

The eight-handed tables will start with 10,000 stacks and all levels last 30 minutes long. Late registration and unlimited re-entries are available until the start of Level 9 at 4:30pm.

Cards go in the air at noon and this should be a fun one.

  • Players begin with 10,000 in chips and 30-minute levels
  • Late registration/re-entry available until start of Level 9
  • This is a one-day tournament and plays until completion

Lou Stadler

Tournament staff announced the blind increase to start Level 2 and the tournament clock hit exactly 400 entries at the same time. The field is less than 300 away from making the $1,000,000 Guarantee and it will not take too long to get there.

Walking the early field, we found three former SHRP winners in early action. Lou Stadler, Chris Nomikos, and Jeff Kessler each conquered won a tournament here but only Kessler owns an RRPO title. His came back in 2013 when he won the Seniors Event.
