Another Championship Event Set to Kick Off

2014 WSOP
2014 WSOP

Hello and welcome back to the Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino for the 45th-annual World Series of Poker!

The $10,000 H.O.R.S.E. Championship - the fifth championship - is set to kick off in 20 minutes or so, and we are anticipating another star-studded field. There was no $10,000 variant in 2013, the largest buy-in H.O.R.S.E. event was of the $5,000 variety, and Tom Schneider bested a 261-player field to earn $318,955.

Prior to that, David "Bakes" Baker (2012), Fabrice Soulier (2011), and Ian Gordon (2010) won this event. Before the WSOP changed the $50,000 Poker Players' Championship to eight-game, H.O.R.S.E. was the game of choice.

For those new to mixed games, H.O.R.S.E. is made up of the following:

  • Limit hold'em
  • Limit omaha hi-low eight-or-better
  • Razz
  • Stud hi
  • Stud hi-low eight-or-better

The cards will be in the air shortly. Be sure to check back for updates straight from the tournament room right here on PokerNews!
