Event 4 of this year’s Playground Poker Fall Classic uses the popular – and fun – shootout format. This format is different in that players are not in one big pool divided among various tables at the beginning and subject to being moved at any time – instead, you start the event at a particular table and if you’re going to move on, you have to defeat everyone and win that table.
If you win your table, then two things happen. A) You are in the money, and B) you come together with the other table winners and play down to a champion.
Event 4 was capped at 100 players (making 10 tables of 10 players each) and it was sold out the minute the event started.
