Get Shorty
Level 12
: 800/1,600, 200 ante
Shorty busted, taking the walk of shame before another did the same. Hollywood Poker Open Director Bill Bruce then took to the microphone to pass on a little information.
Turns out there were 11 people buying before the opening bell and close of registration. Add in seven no-show qualifiers whose buy-ins still get put into the prize pool and the total number of entries is up to 665.
That means a $1,477,025 prize pool was created that will pay 63 spots. A min-cash is a little more than double the entry at $5,317, while Hollywood Poker Open glory and a $332,338 first prize sits up top.
