Event 12 ($240 PLO-8) Rescheduled to a 3:00 pm Start
Due to the massive field in Event 7 ($560 NLHE w/ $1 Million Guarantee), there won’t be enough room for some of the other tournaments until the field shrinks a bit.
So the start time for Event 12 ($240 PLO-8) has been bumped back from 1:00 pm to 3:00 pm.
The restart time for Event 10 ($240 HORSE) has also been rescheduled to 3:00 pm, for the same reason.
