Level 1: 100/200 Limits

While most people settled down in their WPTDeepStacks seats, some players will spend their day playing their favorite four-card, split-pot poker game.

Event 2 kicks off at 11 am and the $300 buy-in Omaha/8 tournament is a one-day LHPO trophy event. It will be a smaller field but a very talented one as well.

Omaha/8 players will sit down to 10,000 starting stacks and play 30-minute levels throughout the day. Late registration is open until the start of Level 9 at 3:30 pm with unlimited re-entries available during that time. They have a 40-minute dinner break scheduled at 5:30 pm and will return to play down to the first LHPO champion later this evening.

  • 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

The new year is upon us and it is time to roll out the first big Seminole Hard Rock Poker series of 2018. And the Lucky Hearts Poker Open is coming out strong from the very start.

The series kicks off with the $1,100 buy-in/$1,000,000 Guarantee WPTDeepStacks opening event. This tournament is always one of the biggest draws on their circuit and we expect another great crowd as it moves to the front of the series schedule.

The tournament features three starting flights with each scheduled to play 15 full levels. Players will start out with 25,000 stacks and the tournament will run 40-minute levels throughout. There is a 60-minute dinner break scheduled after Level 9 at 5:30 pm and registration will close at 6:30 pm when they return.

Late registration is available during that time but players are restricted to a single re-entry per flight. If they max out their entries today, the second flight runs on Friday at 11am with the same format.

Cards go in the air at the top of the hour and we will have all the action from start to finish.
