The first-ever Seminole Hard Rock Poker Open ran in 2013 and the Championship featured a huge $10,000,000 guaranteed prize pool. That tournament put us on the poker map in a big way.
The tournament drew 2,384 entries and Blair Hinkle made history as our first SHRPO Champion. That was our biggest Championship field until the recent WPT Poker Showdown and Hinkle made it 12th out of 2,482 entries.
Those are two nice results in our two biggest Championships.
