Structure
Level 1:  300/600 Limits

We have a brand new game on the series schedule, same games in the H.O.R.S.E. mix but switching the order of things about for a game of H.E.R.O.S. This version was created to break up the flop games from the stud games and now the order is Limit Hold’em, Stud 8, Razz, Limit Omaha 8, and Stud.

Players start with 25K in their stacks and all levels last 30 minutes for the one-day tournament. Late registration and re-entries are available until 5:30 pm and the 45-minute dinner break is scheduled for 7 pm.

This should be a fun experiment and we look forward to seeing the turnout.
