Triton Short Deck Event Begins at 6 p.m.
Welcome to PokerNews coverage of the Triton Short Deck event at partypoker LIVE MILLIONS Europe. Day 1 is set to commence at 6 p.m. local time, with 300,000 staring chips, no blinds and a button ante which starts at 2,000.
The event will play in a triple chance format, and Day 1 is slated for eight 40-minute levels, with a break after Level 3. Late registration will be available throughout the duration of Day 1, and will last through the beginning of Day 2.
With the 9 p.m. start time, players participating in events like the Triton 100k Super High Roller earlier in the day will have plenty of time to get into the field for the Triton Short Deck Event. With a €25,000 buy-in, plenty of high rollers are expected to be in the field.
Short Deck regulars like Phil Ivey are Paul Phua are among the players that could be in the field as this event kicks off today. Day 1 will be a relatively short affair, with just six levels of play, and the tournament will play all the way down to a winner on Day 2.
Day 2 will be streamed live on PokerGO, and viewers will be treated to what will no doubt be a loaded field on hand at King’s
Resort in Rozvadov, Czech Republic.
