Located just a 20-minute drive west from Cincinnati, Hollywood Casino Lawrenceburg proved a popular stop for the HPT last year when the tour made its first visit.
A year ago Gregory Wood topped a 555-entry field in the Main Event to win a $119,101 first-place prize. That field created a prize pool of $532,800 which more than doubled the tournament’s $250,000 guarantee.
This year’s schedule includes a variety of preliminary events with buy-ins ranging from $200 to $300. Among the no-limit hold’em tournaments are multiple deep-stacked events, a couple of bounty events, two seniors events, and a tag team event.
Tournament series features much more than just hold’em
There are also non-hold’em events, including a $300 pot-limit Omaha/Big O event and $200 7-game mixed event (H.O.R.S.E. plus PLO and NLHE). Satellites and other side events will run as well throughout the series.
The series culminates with an $1,100 buy-in Main Event which this time features a larger $300,000 guaranteed prize pool. The tournament features three Day Ones from Friday through Sunday, Apr. 10-12. Each Day One flight will play down to 11% of the field, and everyone who makes the final Day Two on Monday, Apr. 13 will cash.
The Main Event final table will be streamed live on Twitch.tv/HPTpoker, with an estimated start time of 5 p.m. ET. In addition to the first prize, the Main Event winner will also receive a package worth $3,500 to enter the year-end Season XVI HPT Championship Event.
