Event #15 of the World Cup of Cards, the $75 + $10 + $25 NL Short Deck Hold’em Bounty Re-entry, has begun!
This single-day event guarantees a prize pool of at least $5,000. This tournament offers an interesting twist on the familiar bounty format. As a Short Deck event, it will be played with a 36-card deck, the decks in use are missing all 2s, 3s, 4s and 5s. In Short Deck Hold’em, it is possible to make an A-6-7-8-9 straight and a flush is ranked higher than a full house. This hold’em variant makes for a lot of action and has been steadily gaining popularity throughout the poker world.
Players will start with 20,000 in chips to play through as many 20-minute levels as needed to determine a winner. Play will be 9-handed throughout the day. The final table will begin when nine players remain.
This is a re-entry event with unlimited re-entries permitted during the late registration period, which will end at 2:15pm.
Good luck to all!
