Players Taking Their Seats

[user42991]

Players are now beginning to take their seats for today's event. This year's structure is different from H.O.R.S.E. events of years past. In past years, players would play an entire level at one game and then switch games at the end of the level. Now, each table will play eight hands of a game and switch to the next game. This should make for a better balance in play.

Cards should be in the air in about 10 minutes or so.

The first H.O.R.S.E. event of the 2008 WSOP, Wednesday's $3,000 buy in tournament, will get underway at 5pm PDT in the Amazon Room. This one's a great event, featuring rotating rounds of hold'em, Omaha-8, razz, stud and stud-8, and serves as a great warmup for the $50,000 H.O.R.S.E. World Championship coming up later in the series.

Last year's event, which was held at a lower $2,500 buy-in, drew 382 entrants and was won by James Richberg, who captured the bracelet and $238,881 in winnings.
