Last year this question was answered with 474 yeses. One of the most prestigious tournaments of the summer was won by Joe Ebanks, who beat Chris Moorman heads up. The final table was filled with superstars, since Bertrand 'Elky' Grospellier, Tristan Wade, Taylor Paur and Mike Sowers als managed to reach the final six.
This year the $10,000 Six-Handed event is back, and once again we expect an amazing field filled with fearless players. On the first day of play the players will have to fight themselves through ten levels of deep stacked shorthanded poker, and that won't be easy!
Everyone will start today's event with 30,000 tournament chips, and every level will take one hour. Make sure to follow PokerNews as we bring you three days of three, four and five-betting action!
