The Mid-States Poker Tour (MSPT) will be stopping at Silverado-Franklin Casino in Deadwood, South Dakota later this month for the South Dakota State Poker Championship.
The South Dakota State Poker Championship will feature the $1,110 buy-in Main Event, a two-day event with two starting flights that will run from May 20-22.
This year's Main Event has a guaranteed prize pool of $100,000, though it is likely to surpass that. The MSPT Main Event at the 2019 MSPT South Dakota Deadwood Shootout attracted 387 runners to generate a prize pool of $373,886, nearly quadrupling the guaranteed $100,000.
Players will begin with a starting stack of 25,000 tournament chips and blinds at 100/100/100. Both starting flights will play through the end of Level 15 or until approximately 12% of the field remains.
Each level will last 40 minutes in duration until heads-up play is reached, at which point levels will shorten to 30 minutes.
Day 2 will commence on May 22 at 11 a.m. local time and will play down to a winner, who will take home the bulk of the prize pool and the glorious MSPT trophy.
The MSPT stop will wrap up with $250 Last Chance Showdown NLH, a one-day event that gets underway on May 22 at noon.
Players can satellite into the Main Event by either playing a $65 satellite where one in five advances to a $260 satellite, or buying directly into the higher buy-in satellite, where one in five players will advance to the Main Event.

Action was picked up in a heads up pot between Jill Bryant and Bryan Skreens with roughly 8,000 in the center.
The board read and action was on Bryant who bet 6,000. Skreens looked at his own stack, then looked at Bryant before tossing in the call.
Bryant mucked her hand and Skreens turned over for a pair of eights with an ace-jack which was good for the pot.
