H.O.R.S.E. players are taking another break and only ten minutes remain if you want in the fun game. The entry count sits at 69 but they should add a few more before we close registration.

More additions over the last few levels include David Levi, Event 2 final table member Shelly Roth, and Tampa regular NLH-turned-mixed-game player Jeremy Becker.

Yuval Bronshtein

The H.O.R.S.E. tournament hit 50 entries as it nears the first break and they are building a nice field with late registration available for another two hours (plus break times).

Yuval Bronshtein is shooting for his sixth trophy in a little more than  year. He won his first during the 2021 Lucky Hearts Poker Open and won four more over the next year. In addition to those wins, he picked up his second WSOP bracelet in October.

While all of Bronshtein’s wins are in non-NLH games, Anthony Askey has his top scores in the no limit hold’em tournaments. But the Tampa regular is in the Meeting Room playing H.O.R.S.E. this afternoon instead of Event 1 and having a good time.

Fabian Foster

There’s a nice group of players in the Meeting Room across the hall, riding some H.O.R.S.E. action and it’s pretty relaxed at the start with quarter chips in play and not much pressure.

We found Fabian Foster switching up from his normal no limit hold’em game for the second day in a row after he played the Limit Omaha 8 tournament yesterday. Poker pro Amnon Filippi is also here early and his biggest result came in this mixed game; he finished fourth in the 2007 WSOP $50,000 H.O.R.S.E. Championship for $586K.
