Cards are officially in the air in the Tag Team Event
Today is the final flight for the $1,100 buy-in, $1,000,000 Guaranteed PokerNews Cup at Golden Nugget Las Vegas! Late registration will close at approximately 8:45 p.m. local time.
The tournament featured three starting flights and the surviving players from each flight will return at Noon on Monday, June 27 to play down to the final table, which will play out at 2 p.m. on Tuesday, June 28.
PokerNews will be on-site throughout the duration to offer live updates, videos, social media content, and more.
The Tag Team will take place in the same room as the Colossus, and while that field is dwindling quickly on Day 2, there are still too few tables available to house all the tag players. The start time has been pushed to 1:30 p.m.
The 2022 World Series of Poker at Bally's and Paris Las Vegas continues as the unique $1,000 Tag Team No-Limit Hold'em Begins at 1:00 p.m. today.
Some consider this tournament one of the most fun and entertaining tournaments to play on the 2022 WSOP schedule. This year, like the 2021 Tag Team event, only one partner is allowed. Both partners must register at the same time and both players must check in to their table before the end of the registration. Both players must play at least one orbit of blinds by the end of the tournament or that team will be disqualified.
In 2021 a total of 641 teams registered, creating a prize pool of $590,490. At the end of three days it was Mike Ruter & Samy Dighlawi of Team Ruter defeating the runner-up Team Wolf, Tomer Wolf & David Landell, taking home the grand prize of $113,366.
Each team will receive 20,000 in tournament chips and both Day 1 and Day 2 will play 11 levels of 60-minute blinds. There will be no breaks (except for color-up breaks) throughout the tournament.
Players may tag a teammate as long as that player is not in an active hand. Payouts will be calculated based on the number of teams and distributed evenly among the teammates.
